Implantable batteries can run on the body’s own oxygen / in E-News From pacemakers to neurostimulators, implantable medical devices rely on batteries to keep the heart on beat and dampen pain. But batteries eventually run low and require invasive surgeries to replace. To address these challenges, researchers in China devised an implantable battery that runs on oxygen in the body. The study, published March 27 in the journal Chem [1], shows in rats that the proof-of-concept design can deliver stable power and is compatible with the biological system. “When you think about it, oxygen is t ..read more

Trust your doctor: Study shows human medical professionals are more reliable than ChatGPT-4 and Bard / in E-News When looking for medical information, people can use web search engines or large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT-4 or Google Bard. However, these artificial intelligence (AI) tools have their limitations and can sometimes generate incorrect advice or instructions. A new study [1] in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, assesses the accuracy and reliability of AI-generated advice against established medical standards and finds that LLMs are not trustworthy enough to ..read more

eGenesis, PorMedTec produce genetically engineered porcine donors in Japan / in E-News eGenesis, a biotechnology company developing human-compatible organs and cells for the treatment of organ failure, and PorMedTec, a global leader in porcine embryology, have successfully produced genetically engineered porcine donors in Japan for use in trans­plan­tation. As part of a collaboration between the two companies, genetically engineered porcine cells developed by eGenesis were provided to PorMedTec for production using the somatic cell nuclear transfer, or cloning, process. Cells provided b ..read more

Siemens Healthineers introduces Magnetom Flow MRI with improved sustainability, efficiency / in Product News At this year’s European Congress of Radiology (ECR) in Vienna, Siemens Healthineers introduced the Magnetom Flow, which is still under development and not yet commercially available. It is the first 1.5 tesla platform for magnetic resonance imaging with a closed helium circuit and no quench pipe. The amount of liquid helium required for cooling has been reduced to 0.7 litres from as much as 1,500 litres thanks to the Dry Cool technology, bringing down costs and saving resources.

Siemens Healthineers unveils Ciartic Move self-driving, automated C-arm / in Product News Siemens Healthineers has developed an automated, self-driving C-arm system for intraoperative imaging in surgery. Ciartic Move is equipped with holonomic, omnidirectional wheels that allow precise movements even in the smallest of spaces and enables easy and accurate positioning. Using a remote control, the system can be moved to previously stored positions with the touch of a button. This relieves the burden on technologists, who previously had to set these manually. In addition, the automated proc ..read more
