Robotic Bronchoscopy Enables Doctors to Biopsy Lung Nodules from Hard-to-Reach Areas

Robotic bronchoscopy, also known as robotic-assisted bronchoscopy, is a recent advancement in bronchoscopy that allows doctors to examine and collect tissue samples from the hard-to-reach periphery of the lungs. This means doctors can examine and biopsy suspicious nodules - and potentially detect cancer - in parts of the lungs that may be inaccessible with traditional bronchoscopy. More...

Revolutionary System Maps and Ablates Atrial Arrhythmias and Provides Real-Time Feedback

Medtronic's Affera Mapping and Ablation System, which includes the Sphere-9 Catheter and the Affera Prism-1 Mapping Software, marks a breakthrough in electrophysiology by integrating the Sphere-9 pulsed field ablation (PFA), radiofrequency (RF), and high density (HD) mapping catheter, which maps and ablates atrial arrhythmias (fast, abnormal heart rhythms) and provides real-time feedback using its intuitive mapping and navigation software.

New Research Could Lower Malfunction Rates for Medical Implants

Medical implants can save lives or significantly improve quality of life, but they can also trigger an immune response in our bodies. Now, bioengineers at Rice University have discovered that lipids on the surfaces of implants can also play a role in mediating the body's response. More...

New Keyhole Surgery Technique for Prostate Cancer Reduces Postoperative Complications

Surgeons have demonstrated that a minor technical alteration to prostate cancer keyhole surgery can reduce one of the most prevalent post-operative complications by more than half, namely lymphatic fluid accumulation in the pelvis. More...
