There has been a new technological advancement that was discovered about Atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a condition that can lead to life-altering consequences such as, heart attacks and strokes. The condition is an inflammatory disease from autopsies.
There is new imaging technology that can spot inflammation within the body. It centers in on artery inflammation which can cause Atherosclerosis. This type of technology is able to identify any plaque before it hardens. As a result, technology is now able to detect a decrease in blood flow which controls oxygen and nutrients. Inflammation has multiple risk factors, such as obesity and cardiovascular problems. The hope for these results is to increase anti-inflammatory treatment that partakes in atherosclerosis.

There are some factors that can help with advancing treatments to the bone-weakening disease know as Osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a disease that can lead to the weakening of bones and removal of old bones. The disease can increase risks such as bone fractures of the wrist, hip, and spine. Thus as people age, bones tend to get more fragile and weaker with time.
New technology can help find key biological interactions that affect how genes are expressed in the body. In Catherine Paddock’s article, she talks about how this tool helps “pinpoint potential risk genes”. This new technology can lead to advancements with other genetic conditions such as pediatric diseases. The results help to increase “genome-wide interactions”.
New and upcoming technology has created advancement in the medical community. These discoveries can change the way we practice medicine in the future. For more updates on new technological advancements, make sure you stay up to date with our weekly blogs about health and safety.
