Eust as optical fibers have transformed communication, they are also revolutionizing medicine. %hese ultra6 thin,
fle'ible fibers .3Qe o=eneG 3 FinGoF into the living tissues of the body. By inserting optical fibers through natural
openings or small incisions and threading them along the bodyFs established path$ays, physicians can loo+ into the
lungs, intestines, heart and other areas that $ere Ko21e2BE inaccessible to t.e1M
%he basic fiber6optics system is called fiberscope, $hich consists of t$o bundles of fibers. 4ne, the
illuminating bundle, carries light to the tissues. !s is coupled to a high6intensity light source. -ight enters the 5o2es
of the high6purity silicon glass and travels along the fibers. A lens at the end of the bundle collects the light and
focuses it into the other bundle, the imaging bundle. >ach fiber in the bundle transmits only a tiny fraction of the total
image. %he reconstructed image can be vie$ed through an eyepiece or displayed on a television screen. During the
last five years, improved methods of fabricating optical fibers have led to a reduction in fiberscope diameter and an
increase in the number of fibers, $hich in turn has increased 2esoButionM
4ptical fibers can also be used to deliver laser light. By use of laser beams, physicians can perform surgery
inside the body, sometimes eliminating the need for invasive procedures in $hich healthy tissue must be cut
through to reach the site of disease. /any of these procedures do not re5uire anesthesia and can be performed in a
physicianFs office. %hese techni5ues have reduced the ris+ and the cost of medical care.

Alzheimer*s disease i1=3i2s a person*s ability to recall memories, both distant and as recent as a fe$
hours before. Although there is not yet a cure for the illness, there may be hope for a cure $ith a protein called
nerve gro$th factor. %he protein is produced by nerve cells in the same 2e/ion of the brain $here Alzheimer*s
occurs. Based on this relationship, scientists from the Hniversity of -und in 7$eden and the Hniversity of
California at 7an Diego designed an e'periment to test $hether Goses of nerve gro$th factor could reverse the
effects of memory loss caused by Alzheimer*s. Hsing a group of rats $ith impaired memory, the scientists gave half
of the rats doses of nerve gro$th factor $hile giving the other half a blood protein as a placebo, thus creating a
control group. At the end of the four6$ee+ test, the rats given the nerve gro$th factor performed e5ually to rats
$ith normal memory abilities. (hile the e'periments do not sho$ that nerve gro$th factor can stop the general
