Ultrasound-guided cryoablation offers a range of advantages over conventional approaches to treating breast cancer. In October 2023, Massachusetts General Hospital successfully introduced the technique into its clinical practice.
Hakan Ay, MD, a stroke physician and an investigator in the department of Radiology, discusses a study recently reported in Annals of Neurology.
Barnaly Rashid, PhD, Steven E. Arnold, MD, and colleagues report that, across the adult lifespan, worse cardiometabolic health associates with dysregulated functional connectivity throughout the brain, including in higher-order brain networks vital to cognitive function.
Part of the promise of artificial intelligence (AI) is its seeming ability to produce objective, unbiased results. However, AI is not immune from the potential for bias. This Q&A explores how and where bias can enter the picture in science and healthcare and what can be done about it.
Massachusetts General Hospital researchers believe opioid-associated amnestic syndrome deserves study as a reversible metabolic injury.
MRV experts at Massachusetts General Hospital recently reviewed commonly used body and extremity MRV techniques, clinical applications, and cases where off-label ferumoxytol can replace gadolinium.
The Martinos Center’s Bruce Fischl and colleagues report a comprehensive cellular atlas of Broca’s area. Ultimately, the methods developed for the study could help create 3D models of an entire human brain.
The Martinos Center’s Anastasia Yendiki, PhD, is the lead PI of the new Center for Large-scale Imaging of Neural Circuits (LINC), which will map the highways & byways of the brain at unprecedented scales.
An emerging technique, radiofrequency ablation of the basivertebral nerve, offers new hope to patients who experience a specific type of chronic low back pain.
