In the brain, not all blood flow is created equal. RIKEN researchers have developed a detailed cortical layer map of the ...

Microvascular ischemic disease is a term that’s used to describe changes to the small blood vessels in the brain. Changes to these vessels can damage white matter, the brain tissue that contains ...

Once in place, the probe can record neuronal signals across the blood vessel wall without damaging the brain or vasculature. Anqi Zhang of Stanford University and Charles Lieber, formerly at Harvard ...

This "tsunami in the body" is one way a blast can injure blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients to structures deep in the brain, says Dr. Ibolja Cernak, an expert on blast injuries at ...

A brain aneurysm develops when a blood vessel wall weakens, creating a balloon-like bulge that can threaten life if ruptured. While many aneurysms remain stable, understanding their formation and ...

For the first time, however, experts succeeded in visually tracking the movement of microplastics through brain blood vessels in mice—and the pile-ups resembled a microscopic “car crash.” ...

But paradoxically, it can also lead to further damage to the blood vessels in the brain. But thanks to new Danish research, we now have new and detailed insight into what happens in the blood ...

A brain aneurysm is an area of weakness in a brain blood vessel that over time can grow larger and thinner. Aneurysms are dangerous because they can grow and eventually rupture allowing blood to leak ...

Researchers have developed a bubble microrobot capable of being guided around the tiny complex blood vessels of the brain using ultrasound. Successfully tested in mice, the ‘microvehicle ...
