Tissue engineering is a relatively new interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary field that supplies a new idea in regenerative medicine. However, many complications still exist that may hinder the progress of tissue engineering. In this paper, the present complications and solutions encountered in tissue ...
High-frequency ultrasound (HIFU) promised all of this without harming surrounding tissue or drilling a hole through a patient's skull. For decades, however, researchers lacked sufficient imaging technology to really see what was specifically happening in the brain. Modern researchers, however, have ...
Tissue engineering is science, the aim of which is the use of medical and material engineering knowledge to obtain functional substitutes for damaged human tissue [10,11]. In response to the needs of tissue engineering, the aim is to try to obtain new materials with features needed to create...

Modified X-ray procedures can be used to examine softer tissue, such as the lungs, blood vessels or the intestines. In this article, we'll find out exactly how X-rays machines pull off this incredible trick. As it turns out, the basic process is really very simple. Contents What's an...
Tissue engineering approaches could help to restore the pre-injury status. Despite a considerable progress in this field during the last years, routine clinical applications are not available so far. One reason might be that vocal fold fibroblasts, as the responsible cell type for fibrogenesis, ...
As of the early two-thousands 3D printing technology has been studied by biotech firms and academia for possible use in tissue engineering applications where organs and body parts are built using inkjet techniques. Layers of living cells are deposited onto a gel medium and slowly built up to ...
