New MRI Procedure Eases Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis

Researchers from ETH Zurich have developed a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that can ease multiple sclerosis diagnosis and produce more accurate findings. Led by Emily Baadsvik and Markus Weiger from ETH Zurich’s Institute for Biomedical Engineering, the research team created a technique to map myelin sheath conditions for more accurate diagnoses. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a potentially disabling neurological condition that affects the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). It occurs when the immune system becomes dysfunctional and starts to attack myelin, the protective sheath that covers and protects nerve fibers, resulting in communication problems between the…

The Right to Health During Humanitarian Crises Should Include Noncommunicable Diseases

Estimates from the United Nations show that about 363 million individuals worldwide are affected by humanitarian crises driven by the climate crisis, increase conflict and fragility, and broadening inequality. In 2022, more than 108 million individuals were forced to flee their homes due to conflict. While humanitarian crises such as those currently occurring in Gaza, Sudan, Libya, Somalia and Ukraine may vary in scale and nature, they all share infrastructure demolition, displacement of the masses, and the disruption of services and supply chains.

Patients with Swelling Disorder See New Gene Therapy as Godsend

A new gene therapy is transforming the lives of patients with a debilitating hereditary condition that causes painful and even fatal levels of swelling.

Hereditary angioedema is a rare condition that arises from a genetic mutation and causes leaky blood vessels in patients. This leads to random bouts of swelling that can affect the hand, feet, throat, bowels, mouth and lips…

Scientists Start Trialing First Blood Test Against Brain Cancer

Brain tumors, which affects thousands of individuals around the globe, can be diagnosed using various imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scans. Some tumors cannot be diagnosed using these techniques, however, which makes it hard for them to be detected earlier. In the United Kingdom, brain tumors kill more individuals aged 40 and below than any other cancer. Now, researchers have developed a blood test that may revolutionize the diagnosis of brain cancer. The blood test, called the TriNetra-Glio test, may help diagnose patients with different types of brain cancer earlier, which could eliminate the…
