Image-Based Morphological Modeling of Soft and Bony Tissue with Applications in Prognostics and Medical Device Design
… permit highly detailed morphological analyses of internal organs. Morphometric quantification of bony and soft tissue anatomy from computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance 1 images is used to quantify shape and density variation of structures and to associate these variations with existing …

Clinical Evaluation of RenografinR76% as a Contrast Medium in Urography
… by an indirect method. It was soon learned that internal organs which were diseased could cast an abnormal shadow on an x-ray film. It was further learned that more detailed studies could be made of internal organs by the use of radiopaque material. The first of the internal organs to be studied …

Safety standards for police body armour
… No previous study has measured the depth of the internal organs from the skin. A CT study is presented. It describes the accessibility of the internal organs to the passage of a blade by measuring the shortest distances from the skin. By applying the results of these two studies to the location …

La Villa de las Tres Cuturas: A Study of a New Tourist Festival in Frigiliana, al-Ándalus
… constructions and creates a space where the internal organs of the body validate a recent notion of local identity, tradition and culture. The thesis argues that the internal organs of the body work in communion with reconfigured symbols. It argues that the inner body actively engages with …

Potential applications of the natural design of internal explosion chambers in the bombardier beetle (Carabidae, Brachinus)
… of hydroquinones and hydrogen peroxide in its internal explosion chambers and using the resultant high pressure to spray out a heated corrosive fluid containing p-benzoquinones in a controlled direction [1][2]. Three salient features of the internal explosion chambers were found to be …

Imaging of Caenorhabditis Elegans with Near Infrared Spectrally Encoded Confocal Microscopy
… of SECM in revealing the overall geometry, key internal organs, and mutation-induced structural variations.

Everted Sanctuaries: Increments of Silence
… out. For example, a sea cucumber can eject its internal organs to distract attacking predators. The sea cucumber sacrifices some vital functions for ultimate survival. Similarly, many introverts have become adept at temporarily everting their personalities to function in extroverted contexts. …

Ιστοπαθολογικές αλλοιώσεις σε ποντίκια μετά από ενδοπεριτοναϊκή χορήγηση της γλυκολιποπρωτεΐνης (G.L.P.) του Slime της pseudomonas aeruginosa
… non histopathological lesion was provoked in the internal organs of the experimental animals. Slime GLP exerted a marked effect on the lungs, liver and kidneys without any microscopic changes in other organs. The histopathological lesions consisted of thickening and pleomorphic inflammatory …

Custom Electrical Impedance Tomography Forward Models for Muscle Rehabilitation and Radiation Monitoring
… more context and introduce new insights into internal body composition. For example, physical rehabilitation is traditionally based on motion tracking, though muscle tracking is the ultimate goal. A wearable EIT sensing device can fill this gap. We use sets of electrodes to image and …

The development and use of fifteen year-old equivalent mathematical phantom for internal dose calculations
… shapes of the exterior, skeletal system, and internal organs of a human. The idealization for an average adult presently in use by the International Commission on Radiological Protection was used as a basis for design. The mathematical equations describing the phantom were developed to be …

Abdominal vacuum lift as an aid to diagnosing abdominal adhesions
The internal organs are designed to move freely and slide over one another during normal body movement. The abdominal organs, however, have a tendency to adhere to the abdominal cavity (peritoneum) and other abdominal organs after surgery or infection. These adhesions can cause pain, discomfort , …

Health-Related Quality of Life in Morphea
… concerns that the disease will progress to their internal organs. Patients with morphea had worse skin-specific HRQOL than those with other skin diseases, including non-melanoma skin cancer, vitiligo, and alopecia (lowest P <.0001). The morphea population was found to have significantly worse …

Investigating the defects of postnatal global Fli1 deletion in a mouse model
… vasculopathy, and fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. There is a poor prognosis for SSc patients and effective therapeutics have not yet been developed. Many mouse models have been developed, but most fail to recapitulate all of the symptoms seen in SSc patients. In this study we …

Biological and Biomechanical Effects of Direct Perturbation of Tissue Structure in the Cirrhotic Liver
… for a treatment for cirrhosis and fibrosis of internal organs in general. Our findings highlight the potential of such an approach and may pave the way for new therapeutic options.

Neutrino capital of the world
… slicing imperceptibly through our delicate internal organs. They can barrel through the sun, stars, and planets without a single interaction. Only one in every ten billion of the invisible, chargeless, nearly massless particles will interact through a weak force with another atom, leaving an …
