The human immune system defends against pathogens, regulates inflammation, and supports tissue repair, but overactivity or dysregulation can compromise these functions. While wearable devices have been explored for immune modulation, conventional des...
Pesticides contribute to enhanced agricultural productivity, yet excessive residues pose significant health risks to humans as they persist even after washing, making their detection in crops critically important. In this study, we employed 3D-printe...
Safely and accurately navigating needles percutaneously or endoscopically to sites deep within the body is essential for many medical procedures, from biopsies to localized drug deliveries to tumor ablations. The advent of image guidance decades ago ...
Wearable microneedle (MN) patches have emerged as a transformative platform for biosensing, offering a minimally invasive and user-friendly approach to real-time health monitoring and disease diagnosis. Primarily designed to access interstitial fluid...
PURPOSE: Minimally invasive needle-based interventions are commonly used in cancer diagnosis and treatment, including procedures, such as biopsy, brachytherapy, and microwave ablation. Although MR-guided needle placement offers several distinct advan...
