Fully Implantable, Wireless Pacemaker Talks to Patient and Dissolves after Use

In a new study, the team has combined and coordinated their bioresorbable, leadless pacemaker with four different skin-interfaced devices to work together. The skin-mounted devices are soft, flexible and can be gently peeled off after use, eliminating the need for surgical removal. The pacemaker naturally dissolves in the body after a period of need.

Pathology Lab on Wheels Can Revolutionize Brain Surgery

Studies show that in up to three-quarters of patients with brain cancer, portions of the tumor that could be safely removed are left behind, simply because the surgeon cannot see them. Now, a radically new kind of imaging system helps brain surgeons cut with more confidence. More...
