(PhysOrg.com) -- A team of researchers from the NIST Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology and FEI Company have adapted a commercial focused ion beam (FIB) column to use photoionized laser-cooled lithium atoms as an ion source, and demonstrated that NISTs patented Magneto-Optical Trap Ion Source (MOTIS) offers imaging performance competitive with the liquid metal ion sources used in most FIBs.

Claustrophobics (and everyone else who hates lying in coffin-like spaces), take note: GE just introduced an MRI machine for arm and leg injuries that requires patients to stick only the affected limb into a doughnut-shaped scanner--no full-body scanning required. The device, dubbed the Optima MR430s , offers imaging of the elbow, wrist, hand, knee, ankle, and foot, all while allowing patients to recline in padded, adjustable chairs
