FDA clears first diagnostic radiology app, Mobile MIM
By Brian Dolan
February 04, 2011
Mobile MIM was one of the very first medical applications to debut in Apple's AppStore when it first launched in 2008, but the
application also has the distinction of being the first medical application pulled from the store because of regulatory concerns. Today
those concerns are over: The US Food and Drug Administration has officially granted the mobile radiology application a 510(k)
clearance.
“The application is the first cleared by the FDA for viewing images and making medical diagnoses based on computed
tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine technology, such as positron emission tomography
(PET)," the FDA stated in a press release this morning. "It is not intended to replace full workstations and is indicated for use only when
there is no access to a workstation.”
MIM's experience is one of the few public accounts of the nuances of FDA regulation of mobile health services. The clearance
some two and a half years later of an app that originally launched with Apple's AppStore is surely a milestone for mobile health.

Water on the Moon could sustain a lunar base
Having dropped tantalizing hints days ago about an "exciting new discovery about the Moon", the US space
agency has revealed conclusive evidence of water on our only natural satellite. And this "unambiguous detection
of molecular water" will boost Nasa's hopes of establishing a lunar base.
The aim is to sustain that base by tapping into the Moon's natural resources. The findings have been
published as two papers in the journal Nature Astronomy. Unlike previous detections of water in permanently
shadowed parts of lunar craters, scientists have now detected the molecule in sunlit regions of the Moon's
surface.
Speaking during a virtual teleconference, co-author Casey Honniball, postdoctoral fellow at Nasa's Goddard
Space Flight Center in Maryland, said: "The amount of water is roughly equivalent to a 12-ounce bottle of water in
a cubic metre of lunar soil." Her Nasa colleague Jacob Bleacher, from the agency's human exploration directorate,
said researchers still needed to understand the nature of the watery deposits. This would help them determine
how accessible they would be for future lunar explorers to use.
And while there have previously been signs of water on the lunar surface, these new discoveries suggest it
is more abundant than previously thought. "It gives us more options for potential water sources on the Moon," said
Hannah Sargeant, a planetary scientist from the Open University in Milton Keynes, on BBC News.
The first of these new discoveries was made from an airborne infrared telescope known as Sofia. This
observatory, on board a modified Boeing 747, flies above much of Earth's atmosphere, giving a largely
unobstructed view of the Solar System.
Using this infrared telescope, researchers picked up the "signature" colour of water molecules. The
researchers think it is stored in bubbles of lunar glass or between grains on the surface that protect it from the
harsh environment. In the other study, scientists looked for permanently shadowed areas - known as cold traps -
where water could be captured and remain permanently. They found these cold traps at both poles and concluded
that approximately 40,000 kilometres squared of the lunar surface has the capacity to trap water.
What does this discovery mean? According to Dr Sargeant this discovery mean that this could broaden the
list of places where we might want to build a lunar base. There are quite a few one-off missions to the Moon's
polar regions coming up in the next few years. In the longer term, there are plans to build a permanent habitation
on the lunar surface.
“We were going to go to the Moon anyway”, said the Open University researcher. This study gives Nasa
some time to do some investigation, but it doesn't give it much time because and the US space agency is already
working on Moon base ideas and where they are going to go and it is promising.
Experts say that water-ice could form the basis of a future lunar economy, once we've figured out how to
extract it. Definitely, it would be much cheaper to make rocket fuel on the Moon than send it from Earth. So when
future lunar explorers want to return to Earth, or travel on to other destinations, they could turn the water into the
hydrogen and oxygen commonly used to power space vehicles.
Re-fuelling at the Moon could therefore bring down the cost of space travel and make a lunar base more
affordable and a potential lunar settlement is on the way to become into a reality.

“Millions of children, every year, start school excited about what they will learn, but quickly become disillusioned when they get the idea they are not as ‘smart’ as others,” writes Jo Boaler. That’s because parents and teachers inadvertently give out the message that talent is inborn — you either have it or you don’t.
Text 3A2-I
“Millions of children, every year, start school excited about what they will learn, but quickly become disillusioned when they get the idea they are not as ‘smart’ as others,” writes Jo Boaler. That’s because parents and teachers inadvertently give out the message that talent is inborn — you either have it or you don’t.
As a math professor, Boaler has seen this firsthand. Many
young adults enter her class anxious about math, and their fear
about learning impacts their ability to learn.
“The myth that our brains are fixed and that we simply
don’t have the aptitude for certain topics is not only scientifically
inaccurate; it is omnipresent and negatively impacts not only
education, but many other events in our everyday lives,” she
writes. Even though the science of neuroplasticity — how our
brains change in response to learning — suggests learning can
take place at any age, this news has not made it into classrooms,
she argues.
Some of our misguided visions of talent have led to racist
and sexist attitudes, she writes. For example, many girls get the
message early on that math is for boys and that boys are better at
it, interfering with their ability to succeed and leading to gender
disparities in fields of study related to math. Similarly, people of
color may also have to overcome stereotypes about fixed
intelligence in order to thrive.
How understanding your brain can help you learn.
