Outlining organs and tumours in a CT scan is among the most tedious jobs in medical imaging. A single scan can hold hundreds of slices. Each structure has to be traced in three dimensions, and research groups typically train a separate AI model for every organ or dataset they care about. NVIDIA's answer is VISTA-3D, a single foundation model, built with the open-source MONAI framework, that segments well over a hundred anatomical structures on its own and lets a human fix or extend its work wit...

‘Heat Battery’ A heat battery based on salt and water – Eindhoven University of Technology
The heat battery is based on an old thermochemical principle, which is that when water is added to salt it produces heat. The reverse is also possible, whereby heat can be used to evaporate the water, thus storing the heat energy inside the salt.
Storing heat within dry salt makes the battery completely loss-free, providing an incredibly efficient way to store energy for future use. This is particularly useful when energy supply is coming from renewable sources, such as wind and solar, which...
