Medical care in space has long faced a quiet but serious limitation. For more than 40 years, astronauts relied on ultrasound ...

Portable radiography system could improve diagnostic capabilities for crew health ...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's National Ignition Facility (NIF) is the hottest place on Earth for the briefest of moments during an experiment. Now, it can be one of the brightest places ...

For the first time, astronauts have had their bodies X-rayed while in space. This was not because there was anything wrong, ...

A team of crew members aboard a commercial spaceflight acquired the first diagnostic X-rays during an orbital flight. Results ...

Last year, astronauts in orbit took diagnostic x-rays of their own bodies for the very first time—and now, we get to see the results. On March 31, 2025, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched the Fram2 ...

The breakthrough aboard a commercial spaceflight marks not only a "new era" for astronaut health, but also for ...

Researchers have developed an ultra-low-light imaging technique that produces clear, high-resolution X-ray images using a ...

It’s amazing how quickly medical science made radiography one of its main diagnostic tools. Medicine had barely emerged from its Dark Age of bloodletting and the four humours when X-rays were ...

Neither radiologists nor multimodal large language models (LLMs) are able to easily distinguish artificial intelligence (AI)-generated "deepfake" X-ray images from authentic ones, according to a study ...

Astronauts require extensive training in order to operate the equipment, and the technique relies on soundwave ...
