High-precision radiation therapy for brain tumors: The STX-FIX digital positioning aid can be used to locate exactly where the head is in the linear accelerator. Three displays show the exact positioning so that the radiation can hit the tumor in a precisely targeted manner.

Rapid test for multidrug-resistant pathogens: For the method – developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Physical Measurement Techniques IPM in collaboration with LMU Munich – a single DNA molecule is already sufficient for pathogen detection. Future field of application: point-of-care diagnostics in hospital wards or doctors' offices.

Neonatology MRI for the youngest - Interview with Neoscan Sloutions GmbH

To detect impairments in infants as early as possible, physicians often use MRI. However, with conventional models, infants usually need to be sedated and transported to other departments. Neoscan Solutions have developed an MRI specifically for neonatology. We learn more about it at MEDICA 2021.

Joining the OR live – Interview with Rods&Cones Sales B.V.

Joining live and online – this is also possible in the OR. Thanks to modern telemedicine, experts can join difficult procedures and give valuable advice and students are able to watch the process. But the right equipment is necessary to peek over the virtual shoulder of surgeons. We take a look at it at the stand of Rods&Cones at MEDICA 2021.
