New kind of MRI enables study of magnets for computer memory

... the new technique works. Every atom emits radio waves at a particular frequency. But to know where those atoms are, scientists need to be able to localize where the radio waves are coming from. Large-scale MRI machines, such as those in hospitals, get around this problem by varying the magnetic field ...

Oncolytics Biotech Inc. Collaborators to Present Reovirus Research at ASGT Meeting

... spreads to other parts of the body via the lymph nodes. In this study, the investigators demonstrated that normal T-cells pre-loaded with reovirus localize to lymph nodes, spleen and liver and deliver the virus to sites of metastatic disease. In addition, killing the tumour cells in the lymph nodes and ...
