Identifying best candidates with avascular necrosis for regenerative alternative to hip replacement

By Susan Buckles Susan Buckles (@susanbuckles)

A regenerative alternative to total hip replacement delayed the need for artificial implants by at least seven years for 35% of patients who had surgery to treat avascular necrosis. That condition occurs when blood flow to the hip joint known as the femoral head is constricted, causing bone cells to die. This Mayo Clinic research, […]

A robotic GPS for targeting, delivering regenerative biotherapies

By Susan Buckles Susan Buckles (@susanbuckles)

A remote-controlled bronchoscope that acts like a GPS system hunts down hard to find lung masses and accurately biopsies them, according to a Mayo Clinic collaborative study. This multisite research, which is published in Annals of Thoracic Surgery, lays the foundation for precisely finding early stage cancer and targeting it with regenerative biotherapeutics needed to […]
