The National Yang Ming Chiao Tong University (NYCU) and the Taipei Veterans General Hospital hailed a new milestone for disease diagnosis in the medical industry with a brain imaging system they jointly developed that could isolate levels of cerebral regression suffered by patients with mental diseases at different stages of their lives.
The system, named Brain Probe, won this year’s Edison Awards’ Gold award in the Advancements in Neurological Treatments subcategory.
