Image: Anatomically guided sonography for trauma assessment includes a mixed reality headset (e.g., top left). Example views show virtual augmentation overlays for anatomy registration and ultrasound probe guidance on a test surrogate. The anatomical display is customized based on the organ or region being targeted with the ultrasound probe. (Robert S. Armiger, Anna E. Knight, Catherine M. Carneal, et al. Journal of Medical Imaging (2026). DOI: 10.1117/1.jmi.13.4.045001)

Image: Associate Professor Menglin Chen studies how the light-sensitive nanoparticles affect living cells. The screen shows calcium being released inside a cell after nanoparticles taken up by the cell are exposed to blue light. Calcium plays an important role in cellular signaling, and the experiment helps the researchers understand how the nanoparticles can translate light into biological activity.
