MIT researchers have developed a miniaturized ultrasound system that could improve screening accessibility and detect breast cancer earlier.

Edited image from the publication: scan of the liver of an obese patient. The image quality of the standard ultrasound probe (left) is significantly poorer than that of the high-performance probes ...

A scanner ensures that ultrasonic probes stay properly aligned as they move over the surface of the inspection area. Scanners with motorized actuator arms, suction cups and adjustable, flexible tracks ...

In A Nutshell MIT researchers built a portable ultrasound device weighing just over one pound that images more than 4 inches deep into breast tissue, matching hospital machine performance with far ...

Ordinarily, medical ultrasound imaging systems are big and bulky enough that they have to be pushed along on wheeled carts. The new Vave probe, however, can be carried in a pocket and paired with a ...

Scientists have developed an ultrasonic imaging system, which can be deployed on the tip of a hair-thin optical fiber, and will be insertable into the human body to visualize cell abnormalities in 3D.
