Researchers developed a wearable device that can be used for non-invasive stroke risk assessment. The device uses speckle contrast optical spectroscopy to track changes in blood flow and volume in the ...

Caltech and USC have developed a new laser-based headset device that can noninvasively measure blood flow and volume. Caltech postdoctoral scholar Simon Mahler, a co-lead author of the paper ...

In the new study, researchers from Caltech and the Keck School of Medicine of USC tested the new device on 50 volunteers who were split between high- and low-stroke risk. After one minute, the ...
