High energy scans or the body looking for tumors or infections could be greatly improved by adopting perovskite detectors ...

Our bodies are constantly breaking down. Over time, their built-in repair mechanisms also fail. Knee cartilage grinds away. Hip joints no longer support weight. Treatments for breast cancer and other ...

The new detector developed by Professor Mercouri Kanatzidis promises to lower the cost and increase the quality of nuclear ...

Precision is everything when it comes to microsurgery. A few microns—smaller than the width of a human hair—can mean the difference between success and failure. Traditional robotic tools have helped ...
