New ultrasound patches can observe tissue. But those things can also use in cancer therapy.


The ultrasound patches allow tissue monitoring. But they can do many other things. They are loudspeakers or sonar systems. That is glued to the skin. Those systems can use small-size computers that are like smart-card chips. Then those systems can send the data to the mobile telephone. And that allows the observer can observe how joints and muscles work in everyday life. 

The ultrasound patches can use to observe things. Like how tissues like muscles are working while the person is outside. The ultrasound patches can also monitor the movements of the spine and other joints. And that thing can help doctors to see how their patients are moving and if there something problems like foot position errors. 

That kind of wearable ultrasound system can also use to develop new types of furniture like chairs and beds. The ability to see how the person sits and wants in everyday life is the thing, that can revolutionize everyday medical examinations. And those systems also make new types of sports medical work and examinations possible.

But the ultrasound systems can also use for making new types of cancer and antibiotics therapy possible. The idea is that the non-wanted cells will inject the small crystals. And then the ultrasound system will put those crystals oscillate. They can destroy the cancer cells or their mitochondria. The simplest way is to use those crystals as cytostatic carriers. When those carriers are in the targeted cells, the ultrasound will destroy their shell, and release the cytostate. The system can also use those crystals themselves. And their oscillation makes them destroy the internal structures of those cells. 

Nanobubbles can destroy tumors by closing their veins. Modern nanotechnology makes it possible to create rotating structures that use supercavitation for making those veins from blood plasma. One possibility is that extremely sharp coherent ultrasounds are making the targeted structure rotate. And that thing makes those bubbles in the veins. 

The new nanotechnical systems can also put the plate-looking structures rotate or flip vertically. That means the coin-looking structure will rotate around its central axle in a standing position. That system looks like the coin that will snap on the table and rotates in a standing position. That thing can make a situation called supercavitation. There is forming a small vacuum behind the edge that rotates very fast. That vacuum can form microbubbles that can close the veins of the tumor. The system could use ultrasound to follow those bubbles. In some older visions, this system looks like a propeller that makes those bubbles close the veins.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
