Concrete tanks will have a life span
. This is why having a water storage tank is so appealing to people. Because concrete is a very heavy material you will need machinery to lift and position the tank. Unlike metal or wood you don ' t have to concern yourself with it rusting or rotting so it makes a very good choice if you ' re looking for durability. Because they are also UV resistant, the life span is about 15 years. However fibreglass is not a cheap option so be aware of this.Alternatively you might want water to water your garden when there is a drought. Whatever the reasons you have, you will need to research the different types of storage tank to ensur...

GE is Making Ultrasound Education More Accessible
Lack of adequate ultrasound training and accessibility is a serious problem in many low and middle income countries across South America, Africa, and Asia. In a2015 study from the University of Washington, 45 percent of healthcare providers surveyed in those continents reported ultrasound equipment shortages, and 60 percent claimed sonography training was insufficient. Fortunately, scientists at General Electric Global Research are working to improve ultrasound edu cation and technical practices with an innovative augmented reality (AR) system called Vscan that helps clinicians accurately identify specific organs with art...

New Nano CT-Scanner Produces High-Resolution Images of Acute Areas
A group of researchers from the Technical University of Munich have developed a specialized CT-scanner device that can create highly detailed 3D images of specific tissue samples. The nano-CT scanner quickly captures images of soft tissues that would normally require sectioning and slide mounting. The device will ultimately help physicians save time evaluating images. CT scanning soft tissue typically poses two major challenges: applying a toxic stain to the tissue that can damage the body, and traditional micro and nano scanners can ’t produce sufficient resolution. However, the Munich researchers have dedicated their r...

What Are We Going to Do with a 10.5-Tesla Magnet?
After 10 long years of research, scientists at the University of Minnesota ’s Center for Magnetic Resonance Research (CMRR) have successfully conducted agroundbreaking magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the whole human body at 10.5-Tesla, the strongest magnetic field strength ever to be used. The new magnet creates highly-defined images of the body ’s functions that will help physicians get a clearer and more in-depth look at specific conditions like Alzheimer’s, heart disease, and cancer, and allow them to determine appropriate treatment plans. Around 2008, CMRR received an $8 million grant from the National...

CT and MRI Machines Are at Risk for Cyberattack
Anew report presented at the most recent RSNA conference suggests that the risk of cyberattacks on medical imaging devices (MIDs) should be a greater concern in the imaging community. The report, written by a team of researchers in the Department of Software and Information Systems Engineering at Ben-Gurion University of the Nagev in Israel, pointed to a number of reasons why MIDs are particularly vulnerable.CT and MRI machines are routed to hospital networks, which makes them easy targets for cyberattackers. According to the authors, attacks could manipulate the devices ’ elements, thus “disrupt[ing] digital patient r...

Can a Blood Test Replace the CT Scan?
Soon, patients with mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBIs) may not need an expensive CT scan to understand the severity of their injury.The FDA recently approved the first blood test to measure mTBIs in adults: the Banyan Brain Trauma Indicator.As Swedish American headache specialist Jeffrey Royce, MD,explains, “What this test allows us to do is say who may or may not need a cat scan.” The new blood test determines levels of specific proteins, UCH-L1 and GFAP, two biomarkers of a mTBI that can be measured “within 12 hours of head injury.” These levels indicate whether or not a patient would demonst rate intracranial...
