Researchers have demonstrated a 3D ink printing method for so-called smart fabrics that continues to perform well after repeated washings and abrasion tests. The research represents a breakthrough in smart fabric comfort and durability, as well as using a process that is more environmentally friendly.

An AI-assisted model developed by researchers from the University of Missouri School of Medicine and the School of Engineering can take low-quality MRI heart scans and turn them into high quality images, while reducing the time needed to scan the heart by about 90%.

Transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are the reference standard for preventing sudden cardiac death (SCD) but have risks associated with intravascular lead placement.1 ICD technology has evolved from the epicardial to the transvenous era to extravascular innovations that avoid vascular complications, including cardiac perforation, venous obstruction, increased infection rates, and tricuspid regurgitation.

In recent years, the medical field has seen a wave of innovation with the advent of smart implants. But what exactly are these advanced devices, and how do they work?

An international team has developed an intelligent device capable of monitoring the temperature of the skin continuously and accurately.
