Automated decision making has been around in healthcare since the 1970s, and now radiology is the new frontline where AI is being deployed.
Researchers get their first glimpse into what happens in the brain when we consciously relinquish control over our actions and go with the flow.
A standard clinical MRI is not sensitive to the distributed and microscopic injuries in a concussed brain. But new discoveries are in the pipeline.
Leaders in private and public organizations should seek creative problem-solving skills to better innovate. Design thinking may be the answer.
Helium lifts balloons and makes our voices squeak. But its supply on Earth is finite and is critical for modern industrial processes and medical imaging in hospitals. How worried should we be?
With artificial intelligence, machines can now examine thousands of medical images for signs of disease. Will this technology replace doctors – or work side by side with them?
All parents should understand the symptoms of concussion, whether their child plays sports or not.
The Victorians believed that the shape and size of the skull could reveal details about a person’s demeanour. Now it's been put to the test.
Take a look at some of the amazing neuroscience images out of the Queensland Brain Institute this year.
From cheap prosthetic arms for landmine victims in Sudan to the promise of surgery on astronauts in space — 3D printing is sparking a healthcare revolution.
Epilepsy affects around 70 million people globally, 80% live in developing countries. A shortage of specialists, equipment and drugs complicates effective treatment and management.
Talking therapy or antidepressants? An MRI scan could reveal what would work for you.
While Peter Mansfield didn’t have the career as a rocket scientist he craved, his contribution to humanity has been immense.
A recent study suggested that the brain becomes accustomed to lying, making people merely puppets of their brains. That's too simple an explanation – and one that lets liars off the hook.
While AI seems unstoppable, our improved understanding of human brains is levelling the playing field for now.
When you read this text, certain regions in your brain begin working more than others. Advanced imaging allows scientists to map the brain networks responsible for understanding language.
Vast reserves of crucial helium have been found in Tanzania. Here's how the scientists did it.
Conduct disorder is not just teen rebellion, as some experts claim. Brain scans suggest that it's a psychiatric disorder.
Pairing more powerful computers with increasingly sensitive scanners can yield many benefits in medicine and other fields.
