Chinese Scholars Publish in Science Journal: Sensors and Memristors

Using robots to locate odor sources or smoke sources is considered a safe alternative to human and animal rescuers in high-risk search and rescue missions. Compared to static sensor networks, mobile robots can significantly reduce the number of sensing nodes and improve the accuracy of location estimation. In addition to developing dedicated robotic platforms, researchers … Read more

Common Factors for Ulnar-Sided Wrist Pain in Athletes

Common Factors for Ulnar-Sided Wrist Pain in Athletes

MEM Introduction Ulnar-sided wrist pain is common among athletes, and the usual causes include independent or combined injuries to the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC), the extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU), and the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). Sports that require repeated forearm pronation/supination, radial/ulnar deviation, and axial loading can easily lead to ulnar-sided wrist pain in athletes. … Read more

MRI Imaging Methods and Common Disease Abbreviations

MRI Imaging Methods and Common Disease Abbreviations

MRI Imaging Methods The MRI image is formed by reconstructing signals generated from the resonance of hydrogen nuclei in a magnetic field. Therefore, the concept used in MRI images is “signal,” rather than the “density” concept used in CT images. In MRI images, lesions are described using the term “abnormal signal focus.” Because the imaging … Read more

Principles and Clinical Applications of Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI and ADC)

Principles and Clinical Applications of Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI and ADC)

What is Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging? Various magnetic resonance imaging techniques based primarily on conventional T1WI and T2WI mainly display the morphological structures of human organs or tissues and their signal intensity changes, collectively referred to as conventional MRI examinations or conventional MR imaging sequences. With the development of MRI system hardware and software, various … Read more
