Early, specific, blood-based diagnostic for septic arthritis

— Technology Description:

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have identified blood-based cytokine signatures that could be used to specifically detect, distinguish and monitor septic arthritis, synovitis and osteomyelitis. This assay could enable timely, accurate treatment to avoid joi…

Interferon-gamma treatment to improve efficacy of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for AML and other cancer

— Technology Description

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have discovered that interferon-gamma treatment could potentially prevent relapse after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) treatment by making the cancer cells more visible to the donor immune cells. This technolog…

String Theory: Neurovascular Catheter System with 2-in-1 Variable Rigidity

— An interdisciplinary team at Washington University has developed an easy-to-use neurovascular catheter system designed to reduce surgery time and prevent herniation during transradial interventions for stroke, aneurysms and other conditions. This device, called “String Theory”, can be sw…
