Researchers from the University of Technology Delft, the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience and Caltech have developed a microscopy technique based on ultrasound to reveal capillaries and cells ...

A team of Stanford University scientists and engineers has developed a miniature microscope that will allow researchers to observe nerve cells and capillaries deep inside living subjects. The new ...

A KAIST research team succeeded in visualizing pulmonary microcirculation and circulating cells in vivo with a custom-built 3D intravital lung microscopic imaging system. They found a type of ...

Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from your heart. They have thick walls and a muscular layer that keeps your blood moving. Arteries can be as wide as a nickel (about two centimeters). They are the ...

Capillaries are very tiny blood vessels — so small that a single red blood cell can barely fit through them. They help to connect your arteries and veins in addition to facilitating the exchange of ...

A multidisciplinary team from Harvard Medical School, Duke University, and Massachusetts General Hospital has developed the dual-scale Capillary-Cell (CapCell) microscope, a revolutionary tool for ...

Modern understanding of technology recognizes miniaturized integration as a pivotal advance that facilitates low-cost production and typically leads to improved performance and unanticipated ...

Water menisci wet all sorts of cavities, produce among the most intense forces at the nanoscale and play a role in many physical and chemical processes. The physical properties of these menisci are ...

Cotton candy could provide a simple way to feed synthetic muscles or organs with essential gases and nutrients, say US medics. The tangled mass of sticky threads can be used as a template to grow ...
