NASA space lights helping cancer patients
The technology — known as High Emissivity Aluminiferous Luminescent Substrate, or HEALS — generates powerful streams of red and infrared light. In a two-year clinical trial, HEALS substantially reduced the painful side effects of chemotherapy and radiation treatment in cancer patients who had undergone bone marrow or stem cell transplants, researchers said.
"Using this technology as a healing agent was phenomenal," clinical trial principal investigator Dr."For example, the military currently uses r4購入 laser-radar technology that can handle the near-infrared, or 2 to 2.5-micron range. A device capable of handling the mid-infrared, or over 5-micron range would be more accurate. The fibers we created can transmit wavelengths of up to 15 microns."In the other open position, the outdoor christmas decorations dock holds the iPhone in a perfect position for resting on a tabletop for most any use including FaceTime. Donna Salzman, of the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital, said in a statement. "The HEALS device was well tolerated with no adverse affects to our bone marrow and stem cell transplant patients." [10 Dos and Don'ts to Reduce Cancer Risk]
The power of light
HEALS technology incorporates light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which release energy in the form of photons. LEDs by their nature generate much less waste heat than incandescent bulbs, but HEALS intensifies this trait, maximizing LED irradiance while minimizing heat production, researchers said.
NASA and a private-sector partner had previously helped developed a plant growth chamber using HEALS with the aim of conducting space plant growth experiments on shuttle missions.Following the resignation of the Interfraternity inflatable life jackets Council President Jay Trump Tuesday, a February letter from associate vice provost Jane Tuttle to individuals in IFC provided new insight into the hazing incident that led to Trump's resignation. But over the years, researchers began to look into medical applications for the technology as well.
The HEALS device tested in the clinical trial — known as the WARP 75 light delivery system — is about the size of a human hand. It uses 288 separate LED chips, each about the size of a grain of salt. These chips each generate light in the red and infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum, researchers said.
In the two-year clinical trial, researchers studied how treatment with the WARP 75 device affected cancer patients undergoing bone marrow or stem cell transplants.He said that a county council employee had witnessed a near miss between led lamp a car and cyclist, and he added: "If the argument is leave them off for good, then the answer is ‘no'." Specifically, they looked at the ability of the WARP 75 to treat a condition called oral mucositis.
Oral mucositis — inflammation and ulceration of the mucous membranes lining the mouth and throat — is a common and painful side effects of chemotherapy and radiation treatments.
The study found that the experimental light therapy — holding the WARP 75 close to the cheeks and neck — significantly reduced pain in the patients whose cancer treatment caused the most serious oral mucositis. The device's long-wavelength light likely stimulated the damaged cells to heal themselves, researchers said."D3 is pleased to have been selected by GUESS to inflatable mattress bed be part of the new flagship store on Fifth Avenue, said Jason Barak, managing partner, D3. "Our LED digital display serves as an integral part of the store's overall brand experience for consumers."
