Thanks to 3D printing technology, a bioengineer at the McGill University Health Centre is taking personalized health care to ...
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease in which healthy lung tissue is gradually replaced by scar tissue.
Fibrosis of the lungs is often a silent disease until it's too late. By the time patients are diagnosed, the scarring of their lung tissue is already advanced, and current treatments offer little more ...
LAFAYETTE HILL, Pa. (WPVI) -- Pulmonary fibrosis turns the lungs to scar tissue, making it harder and harder to breathe. Help may be on the way, however. A drug being tested locally aims at giving ...
Researchers say in future it may be possible to grow personalized organoids from patient’s own tissue, to test potential treatments in advance.
Researchers from Texas A&M 3D printed models of lung cells to simulate the effects of extreme pressure and temperature on the body.
Lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) is a treatment for end-stage lung disease caused by emphysema. Emphysema is a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that causes shortness of breath ...
A new study suggests that the gene activity in healthy tissue surrounding tumors could better predict whether a patient's lung cancer might return after surgery. When you purchase through links on our ...
Dietary iron deficiency in mice alters lung T cell activation during influenza infection and leads to memory T cells that are ...
When it comes to lung healing and recovery, many well-intentioned approaches actually hinder rather than help the natural healing process. The lungs possess remarkable regenerative capabilities, but ...
