Time-resolved phase contrast MRI (4D flow) can quantify cardiac function and flow. The technique may even permit complex anatomical assessment, thus comprising a comprehensive exam in a single scan. Unfortunately, artifacts from respiratory motion compromise this ability.
1D6 is a monoclonal antibody (mAb) which recognizes human CD81. It was identified by its ability to induce aggregation of a human lymphoma B cell line. This mAb is capable of inducing an antiproliferative effect in B cells
Stanford researchers have developed a cell line (MFB-F11) that can be used for an easy, sensitive, and specific bioassay to study the biological functions of Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-beta).
Dr. Helen Blau and colleagues have developed a mouse model that recapitulates both the skeletal muscle and cardiac pathology seen in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) patients.
Stanford researchers have patented a low cost, textured crystalline silicon (c-Si) photovoltaic film fabricated via scalable, ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) on display glass.
Dr. Rosemarie DeKruyff and colleagues have generated an agonistic TIM-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb), called TIM-1 mAb 3B3. TIM-1 plays critical roles in regulating immune cell activity and is also involved in allergic response and asthma.
Researchers in Dr. Dean Felsher's lab have generated a murine hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell line with controllable MYC expression. HCC is one of the most common and incurable malignancies.
This portfolio of inventions provides the tools for an advanced navigational system and panoramic virtual tours – technology that is incorporated in Google Street View.
A new method for underground mapping and imaging allows the use of the underground reflections of electromagnetic pulses caused by lightning (occurring up to thousands of miles away) to be used for geologic imaging.
Dr. Greg Barsh and Dr. Allison Xu have generated transgenic mice that express Cre recombinase under control of regulatory elements from agouti-related protein (Agrp). The Agrp neurons are critical for regulation of a wide variety of metabolic functions.
An optical device, a method of configuring an optical device, and a method of using a fiber Bragg grating is provided. The optical device includes a fiber Bragg grating, a narrowband optical source, and at least one optical detector.
An optical device includes at least one optical waveguide including a plurality of elongate portions. Light propagates sequentially and generally along the elongate portions.
Stanford engineers have created a patented method for fabricating highly sensitive piezoresistors on vertical walls of microstructures by epitaxial growth of doped silicon.
