What’s Inside?
Posted by: Barbara Bibel
We all get questions about anatomy and have well-used copies of classic works like Gray’s, but there are new imaging techniques in use that provide a much better view. Go to www.nih.gov/science/imagingto learn about CT scans, MRIs, and other tools being developed for diagnosis and treatment of cancer, strokes, and heart attacks. The site has an image bank, articles about medical imaging, and news about research in progress. Where else will you find an image of protein migrating within an aging cell or a video of ultrasound dissolving a blood clot? Aspiring scientist and biomedical engineers can learn about training and research opportunities at NIH as well.
