An experimental treatment for depression that triggers seizures with magnets significantly improved mental health in patients without some cognitive effects associated with electroconvulsive therapy ...

Personalized Topology-Informed Localization of Standard 12-Lead ECG Electrode Placement from Incomplete Cardiac MRIs for Efficient Cardiac Digital Twins ...

ECG signals were checked using a handheld ECG monitor at three sets of electrode placement on the plastron. When ECG signals could be detected, they were measured in the water tanks for several days ...

Summary: Researchers have developed a flexible, biodegradable electrode capable of stimulating neural precursor cells (NPCs) in the brain, offering a safer and more precise alternative for neural ...

University of Toronto researchers have developed a flexible, biodegradable electrode capable of stimulating neural precursor cells (NPCs) in the brain—a device capable of delivering targeted ...

These images guide the placement and alignment of focused cardiac scans, which include three long-axis (LAX) cine sequences (2-, 3-, and 4-chamber views) and a stack of short-axis (SAX) balanced ...

During ECT, healthcare professionals place small electrodes on the scalp and deliver mild electrical currents to the brain, inducing a controlled seizure that temporarily alters brain activity.

But methods are often imprecise and affect large parts of the brain. Sometimes, metal electrodes are needed to hit the right part of the brain, which entails a risk that the hard electrode instead ...
