Pixel Perfect – Imaging Technologies in Biomedical Research (Vol. 27, Nos. 03n04, Full Issue)

In this issue, we have two highlights that will look at how far imaging technologies have come since the X-ray. First, Keefe Chee from BD Life Sciences, Singapore, discusses how real-time imaging spectral flow cytometry (RTI-SFC) allows scientists to identify previously unclassifiable cells in real time, bridging a long-standing gap in biomedical research. And then we have Torrey Smith, CEO of Endiatx, to share with us about PillBot™, the world's first motorised pill camera that will allow a doctor to view the entire stomach and assess for any lesions, making stomach cancer diagnosis more accessible and palatable. Finally, some research highlights we have this issue include a novel diagnostic tool that will improve the clinical diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders, a textile that can convert body movement into electricity, and a uterine tissue-specific hydrogel that could aid in infertility.
