In the three years between Brett Johnson’s brain cancer surgeries, Brigham and Women's Hospital opened the Advanced Multimodality Image Guided Operating (AMIGO) suite, designed to guide complex treatments and procedures with navigation tools and imaging technologies including MRI, CT (computed tomography), PET (positron emission tomography), fluoroscopy, angiography, and ultrasound.

Dr. Gordana Vunjak-Novakovic and her colleagues have managed to create living bone from stem cells. First, they made a CT scan to create a 3-D image of each pig’s jaw. From cow bone, they sculpted a “scaffold” — a three-dimensional copy of the pig bone.

Life-science imaging broke barriers this year, as scientists built upon microscopy approaches to peer ever deeper into living tissues. In October, Purdue University’s Ji-Xin Cheng and colleagues reported they had greatly increased the speed of collecting images—from minutes to seconds—using in vivo vibrational spectroscopic imaging, a technique that obviates the need for fluorescence.
