The venous system maintains the health of our brains by removing deoxygenated blood and other waste products, but its complexity and variability have made scientific study difficult. Now, a UC ...

Healthy brain function relies on a steady supply of blood. Disruptions in blood flow are linked to major neurological conditions like stroke, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and traumatic brain injuries.

For the first time, a team of Inserm researchers from the Physics for Medicine Institute (Inserm/ESPCI Paris-PSL/CNRS) has succeeded in mapping the blood flow of an entire organ in animals (heart, ...

Scientists develop an optical technique that can image dynamic changes in the cerebral blood flow to diagnose brain health. Cerebral blood flow (CBF), which supplies oxygen and nutrients to our brain, ...

According to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, nearly 10 million people aged 40 and older have Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). PAD may cause poor circulation. People who are older than ...
