Case Western Reserve researchers land $1.1M National Science Foundation grant to advance safer, faster and less expensive medical-imaging technology
Diagnosing cancer today involves using chemical “contrast agents” to improve the accuracy of medical imaging processes such as X-rays as well as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. But those agents can be expensive, take more time to use and pose potential health…
