The brain relies on real-time delivery of oxygen and nutrients through its microvasculature, which threads through neural ...

Hypertension can affect your mind, heart, eyes and more, often without causing any obvious symptoms at all.

Blood flow restriction (BFR), an integral part of most post-op rehab protocols, lowers loads, reduces joint stress and helps preserve muscle in ACLs, cuffs and total joints. But…what is BFR doing to ...

Researchers have developed a laser-based device that can measure blood flow noninvasively and differentiate stroke risk based on current physiological conditions. When physicians want to know more ...

Risk assessment Researchers from Caltech and the Keck School of Medicine at USC have created a portable laser-based headset that can estimate stroke risk. Caltech postdoctoral scholar Simon Mahler is ...

Researchers developed a wearable device that can be used for non-invasive stroke risk assessment. The device uses speckle contrast optical spectroscopy to track changes in blood flow and volume in the ...

Blood flow then returns to baseline – or 'normal' – levels once regular breathing restarts. Through this process, the device's SCOS analysis picked up key differences between the low risk and high ...

Good circulation is vital for a healthy and well-functioning body. The circulation system delivers oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and immune cells to every cell in the body, while removing waste like ...
