NASA software used to enhance Earth Science Imagery could one day aid in the interpretation of mammograms, ultrasounds and other medical imagery.

The new MED-SEG system, developed by Bartron Medical Imaging, Inc., a Connecticut-based small company, with satellite offices in Maryland, relies on an innovative software program developed at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., to help doctors analyze mammograms, ultrasounds, digital X-rays, and other medical imaging tests.

“The use of this computer-based technology could minimize human error that occurs when evaluating radiologic films and might allow for earlier detection of abnormalities within the tissues being imaged,” said Dr. Thomas Rutherford, a medical doctor and director of gynecologic oncology at Yale University.

Blind Date/First Date Help…(for the shy guy)?

Question by thelegendarybino: Blind Date/First Date Help…(for the shy guy)?
Hey my moms friend called my mom to set me up with her daughter, which is funny because my mom wanted to set me up with her also. Anyways her mom gave me her number for me to call her and set something up. we’ve been talking on social a little bit and i asked her if she wanted to go to the Tigers game with me (dont hate!! =p)

Typically I’m a nervous/shy guy in which I cant really help. we’re only 17, but still what are some good topics, tips, impressions I can leave with her, she seems to be extremely nice and possibly interested. I mean, she did say she wanted to meet me!

Let me know what you all think.
Thanks!!
