Beverly Hills Stem Cell Institute Now Offering Stem Cell Therapy for Nonoperative Rotator Cuff Repair

Posted on by

Beverly Hills, California (PRWEB) November 11, 2013

The top stem cell therapy clinic serving Los Angeles, The Beverly Hills Orthopedic Institute of Cellular Therapy, is now offering multiple stem cell injection treatments for nonoperative rotator cuff repair.

The treatments are administered by a Double Board Certified Los Angeles orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Raj, with incredible success rates for decreasing shoulder pain and increasing function. Those interested should call (424) 253-5577 for more information and scheduling.

Traditional treatments for rotator cuff tear pain have included steroid injections, which are excellent at pain relief but do not actually help with repair of the tear. If the tear is large enough, the patients function will not see any improvement and surgery may become necessary.

The difference with a regenerative medicine treatment such as with stem cell injections for rotator cuff tears is that pain relief typically occurs and there is potential for nonoperative healing. Multiple types of injections are offered, including bone marrow derived stem cell injections, platelet rich plasma therapy or amniotic derived stem cell therapy.

The Medical Director at the Beverly Hills Orthopedic Institute of Cellular Therapy, Dr. Raj, also offers arthroscopic shoulder surgery. With the success we are seeing with the stem cell shoulder injections, less patients end up needing surgery to receive the same outcome. In addition, the rehab is shorter and patients do not need to deal with any incisions!, stated Dr. Raj.

Dr. Raj is a nationally respected orthopedic surgeon, having been named numerous times one of Americas Top Orthopedists. He serves as an ABC News Medical Correspondent, and treats everyone from celebrities to professional athletes, weekend warriors, grandparents, executives and college students.

All of the procedures are performed as an outpatient and entail very low risk. The Los Angeles PRP therapy involves a simple blood draw, while the bone marrow procedure entails a minimally invasive harvest procedure. The blood or marrow is immediately processed and injected into the shoulder for healing.

Individuals frequently travel to the Beverly Hills for treatment from outside the greater Los Angeles area. Travel arrangements can be made by the Institute. Call for more information and scheduling to (424) 253-5577.

NASA's Next Mars Probe Set to Launch Monday

Posted on by

NASA's next mission to Mars set to explore the Red Planet's atmosphere is getting ready to launch on Monday (Nov. 18).

The Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution spacecraft (called MAVEN for short) is expected to investigate how the ancient Red Planet shifted from being a warm, wet world to the cold desert it is today.

"A maven is a trusted expert based on an accumulation of knowledge who seeks to pass that knowledge onto others," John Grunsfeld, associate administrator for the science mission directorate at NASA, said during a news conference on Oct. 28. "MAVEN, like its entomological origin, will indeed establish the knowledge on which scientists can build a story of the Mars atmosphere and help future human explorers who journey to Mars and the Mars surface."

The probe will launch atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas 5 rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. The two-hour launch window opens at 1:28 p.m. EST (1828 GMT) and NASA will air the event live.

It will take about 10 months for MAVEN to arrive at Mars. The 5,410-pound (2,454 kilograms) probe will insert itself into an elliptical orbit around the Red Planet in September 2014.

While in orbit, the $671 million MAVEN mission will investigate the upper atmosphere of the Red Planet. Scientists hope to use MAVEN to uncover how and why Mars lost its atmosphere, which is now just one percent as dense as Earth's.

"There are two places that the atmosphere can go," MAVEN principal investigator Bruce Jakosky said during the news conference. "It can go down into the crust [or] it can up to the top of the atmosphere and be lost to space. I think these questions of where did the water go? Where did the CO2 [carbon dioxide] go from that early atmosphere are driving our exploration of Mars."

It's possible that the sun's solar wind was responsible for stripping away some of Mars' atmosphere, although many kinds of mechanisms could have played a role, Jakosky said.

In order to investigate the causes behind Mars' loss of atmosphere, MAVEN will carry a host of instruments into orbit around the Red Planet. The probe's science payload includes instruments designed to investigate solar particles, solar wind ions and solar wind electrons. Other instruments will examine the structure of the upper atmosphere and "how it responds to the solar energy that hits it in these different formats," Jakosky said.

MAVEN's launch window runs from Nov. 18 to Dec. 7 although it could launch as late as Dec. 15, according to Jakosky. If the probe misses this window of opportunity, however, the mission will need to wait two more years before Earth and Mars are favorably aligned in this way again.

NASA peers into one of Earth's strongest storms ever

Posted on by

13 hours ago by Alan Buis NASA's Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument on NASA's Aqua spacecraft captured these infrared images of Super Typhoon Haiyan at 8:59 p.m. PST Nov. 7 (left) and 9:17 a.m. PST Nov. 8 (right).

(Phys.org) New satellite images just obtained from NASA's Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument aboard NASA's Aqua spacecraft and the Indian Space Research Organization's OceanSAT-2 ocean wind scatterometer provide a glimpse into one of the most powerful storms ever recorded on Earth.

According to the U.S. Navy Joint Typhoon Warning Center, Typhoon Haiyan had maximum sustained winds of 195 mph (314 kilometers per hour), with gusts up to 235 mph (379 kilometers per hour) shortly before making landfall in the central Philippines today. That would make it one of the strongest storms ever recorded. Weather officials in the Philippines reported the storm, known locally as Typhoon Yolanda, came ashore with maximum sustained winds of 147 mph (235 kilometers per hour) and gusts of up to 170 mph (275 miles per hour).

The two AIRS images, acquired at 8:59 p.m. PST on Nov. 7 (left) and 9:17 a.m. PST on Nov. 8 (right), show the powerful storm in infrared. When the image on the left was acquired, the storm was located 214 miles (344 kilometers) south-southeast of Manila. By the time the image on the right was acquired, the fast-moving storm was already centered west of the Philippines, on a forecast track that will take it to Vietnam. The storm's coldest cloud-top temperatures are indicated by the brightest shades of purple, and show where Haiyan's heaviest rainfall was occurring.

Another image, from the OSCAT radar scatterometer on the Indian Space Research Organization's OceanSAT-2 satellite, shows Haiyan's ocean surface winds at 5:30 p.m. PST on Nov. 6. The wind data were calculated by scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., using an advanced wind retrieval algorithm designed for tropical cyclone conditions. The colors indicate wind speed and arrows indicate wind direction. The wind speeds were measured in 15-by-15-mile (24-by-24-kilometer) boxes that recorded a maximum value of 128 miles, or 206 kilometers, per hour). That's why these wind speeds are lower than the maximum small-scale winds calculated by the U.S. Navy Joint Typhoon Warning Center.
