ScanImage: Flexible software for operating laser scanning microscopes

Thomas A. Pologruto, Bernardo L. Sabatini, Karel Svoboda · 17 May 2003

BACKGROUND: Laser scanning microscopy is a powerful tool for analyzing the structure and function of biological specimens. Although numerous commercial laser scanning microscopes exist, some of the more interesting and challenging applications demand custom design. A major impediment to custom design is the difficulty of building custom data acquisition hardware and writing the complex software…

OpenMEEG: opensource software for quasistatic bioelectromagnetics

Alexandre Gramfort, Théodore Papadopoulo, Emmanuel Olivi et al. · 1 Jan 2010

BACKGROUND: Interpreting and controlling bioelectromagnetic phenomena require realistic physiological models and accurate numerical solvers. A semi-realistic model often used in practise is the piecewise constant conductivity model, for which only the interfaces have to be meshed. This simplified model makes it possible to use Boundary Element Methods. Unfortunately, most Boundary Element solutions are confronted with…

How smartphones are changing the face of mobile and participatory healthcare: an overview, with example from eCAALYX

Maged N. Kamel Boulos, Steve Wheeler, Carlos Tavares et al. · 1 Jan 2011

The latest generation of smartphones are increasingly viewed as handheld computers rather than as phones, due to their powerful on-board computing capability, capacious memories, large screens and open operating systems that encourage application development. This paper provides a brief state-of-the-art overview of health and healthcare smartphone apps (applications) on the market today, including emerging trends…

Organ-on-a-chip: recent breakthroughs and future prospects

Qirui Wu, Jinfeng Liu, Xiaohong Wang et al. · 12 Feb 2020

The organ-on-a-chip (OOAC) is in the list of top 10 emerging technologies and refers to a physiological organ biomimetic system built on a microfluidic chip. Through a combination of cell biology, engineering, and biomaterial technology, the microenvironment of the chip simulates that of the organ in terms of tissue interfaces and mechanical stimulation. This reflects…

Challenges, issues and trends in fall detection systems

Raúl Igual, Carlos Medrano, Inmaculada Plaza · 1 Jan 2013

Since falls are a major public health problem among older people, the number of systems aimed at detecting them has increased dramatically over recent years. This work presents an extensive literature review of fall detection systems, including comparisons among various kinds of studies. It aims to serve as a reference for both clinicians and biomedical…
