David Grant Medical Center tests advance cancer treatment
U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Christopher Moore, 60th Diagnostics and Therapeutics Squadron, prepares a tray of specialized medical equipment ahead of an Yttrium-90 radioembolization procedure for a patient with liver cancer, Sept. 7, 2018, Travis Air Force Base, Calif. The Y-90 radioembolization is an advanced and minimally invasive method utilized for this disease by delivering millions of tiny radioactive beads inside the blood vessels that feed a tumor. The high dose of targeted radiation prospectively kills the tumor while sparing normal tissue. This was the first time the treatment was performed at David Grant U.S. Air Force Medical Center.

AF researchers test digital stethoscope for en route care
The digital noise-immune stethoscope, currently being evaluated by researchers with the 711th Human Performance Wing at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, connects into existing headsets used by aeromedical evacuation crews and critical care air transport teams. Traditional stethoscopes are difficult to use during en route care due to an aircraft’s noise environment. This noise-immune stethoscope aims to address that issue.

AF researchers test digital stethoscope for en route care
Dr. David Burch, a research biomedical engineer and the medical technology solutions team lead for En Route Care Medical Technology Solutions Research Group with the 711th Human Performance Wing at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, collects data on vibration profiles while flying aboard a C-130J Super Hercules with the support of the 146th Airlift Wing Air National Guard, Feb. 9, 2018. This data will help improve and tailor noise-immune stethoscope technologies to ensure they can function during patient transport. Prior to such devices, use of a traditional stethoscope did not function as it was intended due to the dynamic, high-noise environment of an aircraft. (Courtesy photo)
