Famous People with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) 7of7

Posted by admin Comments (0)

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the Central Nervous System (CNS) – that’s the brain and spinal cord. Predominantly, it is a disease of the “white matter” tissue. The white matter is made up of nerve fibres which are responsible for transmitting communication signals both internally within the CNS and between the CNS and the nerves supplying rest of the body. In people affected by MS, patches of damage called plaques or lesions appear in seemingly random areas of the CNS white matter. At the site of a lesion, a nerve insulating material, called myelin, is lost. I shall explain this process in more detail later. Clinically, MS is a hard condition to characterise because it is very unpredictable and variable. Depending on which areas of the CNS are affected and how badly they are damaged, the type and severity of symptoms can vary greatly. No two people get MS in exactly the same way and the expression of each individual’s disease is as unique as their fingerprints. However, the different courses of the disease, both within an individual and within the whole population, principally differ in their timing, location and severity. Underneath similar processes (including demyelination and sometimes other forms of nerve degeneration) are going on. Although recent research indicates that the biochemical make-up of lesions may vary between different forms of the disease, this is not the reason why people with MS (PwMS) have such widely differing symptoms

This is your brain on an iPhone

Posted by admin Comments (3)

This is your brain. This is your brain on an iPhone. Researchers at the University of Calgary have written a software application for the new iPhone 3G, allowing doctors to remotely receive medical images on their iPhones and to manipulate the images in three dimensions. The project is jointly funded by the Government of Alberta through iCORE (Informatics Circle of Research Excellence), Calgary Scientific Inc. and the University of Calgary. iCORE is providing 0000 over five years. Calgary Scientific Inc is contributing more than million in funding and in-kind resources, while the University of Calgary is contributing 5000 to the project. This research focuses on developing new methods to identify and extract vital diagnostic information from medical images produced by MRI and CAT scans, said Dr. Ross Mitchell, newly appointed iCORE/ Calgary Scientific Inc. Industry Chair in Medical Imaging Informatics at the University of Calgary. This new funding will help us rapidly and reliably identify brain regions at risk during acute stroke, find new methods to predict how a brain tumor will respond to therapy, and better gauge the effectiveness of new Multiple Sclerosis treatments. By bringing the outcomes of his research to the marketplace, Dr. Mitchells work will enhance disease diagnosis in this province and across the globe, said Doug Horner, Minister of Advanced Education and Technology. Dr. Mitchells work also furthers our effort to create the right environment for

Alzheimer’s: The Race for the CURE! (Part 1 of 3)

Posted by admin Comments (0)

Alzheimer’s CURE Foundation, Inc. www.alzCURE.org (401) 473-7019 Alzheimer’s CURE Foundation is a groundbreaking, public, 501(c)(3) non-profit, headquartered in Rhode Island and making history world-wide. Our entire focus is to dramatically accelerate the cure for Alzheimer’s disease while at the same time creating public awareness and supporting education. Our goal is to act as the catalyst that will dramatically accelerate the cure for Alzheimer’s disease by raising and awarding a million dollar cash-prize that will serve as the “Gold Medal” for the scientist(s) who discover the cure for Alzheimer’s disease. To our knowledge, this is the first time in medical history that this approach is being utilized for a specific cure. Furthermore, a cure for Alzheimer’s will not only address virtually every other form of dementia, it will also open the door wide towards a cure for so many other neurodegenerative diseases and neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Lou Gehrig’s, Autism, stroke-related brain disorders, etc. etc. This one cure will revolutionize medicine as we know it today. Please join us in our quest to conquer Alzheimer’s and at the same time to address so many other diseases. Your contributions will help make our vision of an Alzheimer’s-free world a reality (and at the same time help advance cures for so many other diseases). These video segments are just one episode of our award-winning TV program, “A Tribute to Memories… The Race
