Biomagnetic Signals of Intestinal Ischemia

Completed

Conditions studied: Ischemia

In brief

The lack of blood flow to the small intestine causes mesenteric ischemia. Using a Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID) which measures the magnetic field of the small intestine, we are hoping to identify abnormalities without surgical intervention.
