Science - Science (general) / research project description
Spanish term or phrase: avances realizados
I have a report describing a research project and I need some help to translate this subheading "avances realizados".

The other subheadings are "Methodology", "Type of research", "Current stage of research", but now I have this one: "avances realizados" which describe the progress that has been made so far.

Thanks a lot

Scientifi cally, many of the biggest **advances made** in the
States have had contributions from UK scientists.

It is encouraging to see how much progressive development and new methods of study through improved
technology there are in the orthopaedic field requiring funding to take them to the next stage of development. One
such area is the ***advances made*** in MRI and CT scanning, which give greater detail of the kinematics of the normal and
diseased joints.

When we search for the roots of major scientific **advances made** over the centuries, they often reveal tortuous routes where the findings bear little resemblance to the initial research.
