These fibers can be found in every tissue in the human body, underlying every organ’s function and dysfunction.
Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the ...
Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering Yi Xue works on 2P-FOCUS, a new two-photon microscopy system, in her lab. The system promises novel insights into biological features that were once only ...
A classical way to image nanoscale structures in cells is with high-powered, expensive super-resolution microscopes. As an alternative, MIT researchers have developed a way to expand tissue before ...
Researchers have developed a compact handheld imaging probe that could expand the clinical and research use of photoacoustic ...

Diabetes doesn’t just coexist with heart disease - it actively reshapes the heart’s machinery and the way it makes energy.
Researchers say the innovation, known as SmartEM, will speed scanning sevenfold and open the field of connectomics to a ...
Freshly dissected tissue (lower left) and its pathology-prepared slide with identified tumor regions by a pathologist (upper left), and a pseudo-color image of hyperspectral dark-field microscopy ...
The researchers demonstrated the utility of their technique on a slice of a mouse brain, 200 microns (0.2 millimeters) in thickness. First, they made their tissue sample see-through using a tweaked ...
