Atala successfully implanted the first lab-grown organs bladders into seven patients at Boston Children's Hospital between 1999 and 2001.

Bioprinting organs with cells grown from a patient's own body could eventually help doctors churn out perfect matches at will.

and identify cancerous cells in the bloodstream which would provide the diagnostic information needed to create individually tailored treatments for patients with prostate cancer.

and that every patient's cancer is a unique problem--the'one-size-fits-all'approach is not going to allow us to cure prostate cancer

and to ensure a patient's treatment is individualized and optimized. The molecular characterizations of CTCS will provide real-time information allowing us to choose the right treatment for the right patient at the right time.

This improvement will be a great step toward developing personalized medicine he added. The existence of CTCS and their role in cancer metastasis was suspected first more than 140 years ago

and will allow us to better understand the mechanism of drug resistance that is common in prostate cancer patients.

We hope the comprehensive understanding of cancer biology at the individual level will ultimately lead to better therapy choice for patients suffering from advanced cancer.

With the new system a patient's blood is pumped through the Nanovelcro Chip--the microvilli protruding from the cancer cells will stick to the nanofiber structures on the device's surface much like Velcro.

and may help doctors personalize therapies to a patient's unique cancer. To date CTC capture technologies have been able to do little more than count the number of CTCS which is informative but not very useful from a treatment planning perspective.

The new approach not yet tested in patients involves isolating cells from banked donor corneas to grow replacement corneal tissue in the lab. The advantage is that cells from a single donor could potentially benefit multiple patients with impaired vision.

and Drug Administration to begin studies in human patients. This is expected to take several years.

The current surgical technique is to replace a patient's damaged CECS with a very thin layer of tissue containing cells from a cadaveric donor cornea.

It is exciting that a collaboration based in the Piedmont Triad research Park right here in Winston-salem has the potential to create products that can bring benefits to patients throughout the world said Eric Tomlinson D. Sc.

and degenerative spine problems resulting in fewer complications and better outcomes for patients. The Cedars-Sinai surgeons highlight the advantages of a spinal navigation technique that uses high-speed computerized tomography (CT) imaging to navigate in and around the spinal column from different angles.

The results which were published online this week in the open-access journal PLOS ONE came from a 10-month study of 87 patients at Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH) in Blantyre Malawi.

Patients were treated with bubble CPAP whenever a machine and trained staff were available. The study included data from 62 infants who were treated with bubble CPAP

less costly) and improve patients health. Haptic systems are a particularly promising area of research in the field of robotics.

you re already tracking the tools that are inside the patient, says Okamura. oeyou can have force-sensors

The hope is that it will also improve our knowledge about how the patient is doing.

Faster Internet speeds will allow doctors to monitor their patients around the clock in their patients homes.

The Renaissance Computing Institute in North carolina has developed an Outpatient Health Monitoring System (OHMS) for patients with chronic conditions such as asthma.

The device uses wireless sensors to constantly monitor patients and check environmental factors in the patients home

and every patient can be profiled rigorously. This shaves money and years off development. Moreover, with the client fully informed and integral to all aspects of development and testing,
