A new 3D imaging tool, RUS-PAT, offers fast, safe, and detailed scans of tissues and blood vessels without radiation or magnets, showing promise for diagnosing stroke, cancer, and diabetes complications.
A new 3D imaging system called RUS-PAT, developed by researchers from USC and Caltech, combines rotational ultrasound and photoacoustic tomography to produce detailed, real-time images of tissue and blood vessels across large body areas in about 10 seconds.
Unlike MRI, CT, or traditional ultrasound, it uses no ionizing radiation or strong magnets, offers a broader field of view, deeper imaging, higher resolution, and lower cost.
Tested on patients with traumatic brain injury and in the brain, breast, hand, and foot, the technology shows promise for diagnosing stroke, cancer, and diabetic complications.
Funded by the NIH, the system was published in Nature Biomedical Engineering and could transform noninvasive diagnostics.
Una nueva herramienta de imagen 3D, RUS-PAT, ofrece escaneos rápidos, seguros y detallados de tejidos y vasos sanguíneos sin radiación o imanes, lo que muestra una gran promesa para diagnosticar accidentes cerebrovasculares, cáncer y complicaciones de la diabetes.
