Medical imaging – Wikipedia

Posted: Published on September 4th, 2017

This article is about imaging techniques and modalities for the human body. For imaging of animals in research, see Preclinical imaging. Medical imaging is the technique and process of creating visual representations of the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention, as well as visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues (physiology). Medical imaging seeks to reveal internal structures hidden by the skin and bones, as well as to diagnose and treat disease. Medical imaging also establishes a database of normal anatomy and physiology to make it possible to identify abnormalities. Although imaging of removed organs and tissues can be performed for medical reasons, such procedures are usually considered part of pathology instead of medical imaging. As a discipline and in its widest sense, it is part of biological imaging and incorporates radiology which uses the imaging technologies of X-ray radiography, magnetic resonance imaging, medical ultrasonography or ultrasound, endoscopy, elastography, tactile imaging, thermography, medical photography and nuclear medicine functional imaging techniques as positron emission tomography (PET) and Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Measurement and recording techniques which are not primarily designed to produce images, such as electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), electrocardiography (ECG), and others … Continue reading

Anatomy of an epidemic – Times of India (blog)

Posted: Published on August 21st, 2017

It is just right, that the Health Ministry has chosen the IMA (Indian Medical Association), Indias largest voluntary autonomous body of doctors from all fields. The key features that make it suitable for the Gorakhpur enquiry, is that this body would be looking into the matter medically, and not with an eye of punishment. I am quite sure, with a vast, mostly non-government aided practicing experience, many must already be knowing what in all probability would mainly be a viral epidemic. Surely there would be areas of suggestions for improvement of overall care and preparedness. Another advantage, it is not answerable and should not lean to any political entity, nor can itbesqueezed around by protocol, as it is not a Constitutional body, unlike the MCI. That it shall use true scientific principles, is understood. If you look from the point of advantages of adversity, it is just as well that awareness has finally spread, systems are upgraded, and if this turns out to be a viral epidemic, the best standards of epidemic control, and prevention shall have to be put in place.Gorakhpur is a city that has had many trysts with epidemics. To put it lightly, sometime back I happened … Continue reading

Grayson's Anatomy: How did the Sunderland manager rate after Saturday's defeat at home to Leeds? – Roker Report (blog)

Posted: Published on August 21st, 2017

Team Selection Its pretty simple: we have a squad with a decent amount of quality in it; however, we simply dont have enough quality in reserve if things arent working out or players are feeling somewhat jaded. Both Lee Cattermole and Aiden McGeady looked tired yesterday, and whether you think thats acceptable or not it goes to show that we desperately need quality reinforcements. This week will give Grayson the chance to experiment in the cup and rest several players/give others a chance to impress, but it really does feel like the side needs several quality additions in order to really push on this season. Yesterdays bench, for example, was bereft of quality - wheres the dynamic striker and the tricky playmaker? Asoro is young and Khazri just hasnt cut the mustard so far this season as he looks for an escape from Wearside. Verdict: What can you say, we played well until the first goal, but there just seemingly isnt enough quality on the bench to really make a difference when we need it. Leeds did play well yesterday, but Sunderland could have perhaps played better - or at least smarter. For once this season we had the lions … Continue reading

Eric Dane Only Watched Three Episodes Of 'Grey's Anatomy' – HuffPost

Posted: Published on August 19th, 2017

Eric Dane spent six seasons playing Dr. Mark Sloan onGreys Anatomy, but the actor says he barely watched any episodes of the hit ABC series. Ever. In a recent interview with HuffPost at Build Series, Dane revealed, I watched three episodes of the show while I was on it. After all, he said, I was there when it happened, so I didnt need to see it. So, its safe to say he doesnt keep up with the series now. But he does keep in touch with some of his former cast members, including Ellen Pompeo and Justin Chambers. Hes also still friendly with series creator Shonda Rhimes. Shondas great, he said.Im still friends with her to this day. One thing that you do with Shonda is that you dont deviate. Thats one of the biggest lessons you learn is that you stick to the script. Even though hes been off the series for five years now, Dane still gets called by his Greys nickname, McSteamy. But he doesnt seem to mind too much. Ive been called a lot worse, he joked. It never did anything bad for me that nickname. So, I dont mind it ... Its not what Im … Continue reading

'Grey's Anatomy' Season 14 Photos Reveal 'New Harriet' & Teddy's … – Moviefone

Posted: Published on August 19th, 2017

Oh, baby! "Grey's Anatomy" Season 14 isn't just bringing back an old friend, it's introducing a new (super-cute) young one. It was already announced that Kim Raver would be returning as Dr. Teddy Altman in a guest arc in Season 14, and new photos show Raver scrubbed in with the Grey Sloan crew, including Ellen Pompeo (Meredith Grey), Jesse Williams (Jackson Avery), Camilla Luddington (Jo Wilson), and Sarah Drew (April Kepner): Check out some new photos with Raver, who just joined Instagram and fittingly made "Grey's" her first pics: Welcome home! Teddy left "Grey's" when she was fired by Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) so she could go take her dream job. She was mentioned in the Season 13 finale when Owen's sister Megan was discovered to have been alive all this time. Owen, Amelia (Caterina Scorsone), and Riggs (Martin Henderson) were all on the way to reunite with Megan (now recast and played by Abigail Spencer) when Season 13 ended. Sarah Drew is always great about sharing on-set photos, and she also shared some new Japril pics, including two adorable family photos with baby Harriet Kepner-Avery. If Harriet looks a little different than you remember, that's not a coincidence. In … Continue reading

EXCLUSIVE: 'Grey's Anatomy's' Giacomo Gianniotti Talks Jo and … – Entertainment Tonight

Posted: Published on August 19th, 2017

Greys Anatomy star Giacomo Gianniotti is hopeful that Dr. Andrew DeLuca will see happier days in the halls of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. The 28-year-old actor discussed the future of the love triangle his character is currently entangled in with Jo (Camilla Luddington) and her ex, Alex (Justin Chambers). Over the course of the last season, DeLuca began developing strong feelings for Jo, and it appears theres a very real possibility for a deeper connection between the two doctors. DeLucas attempts to confess his feelings to Jo havent gone so well for him, Gianniotti recently told ET. But personally speaking, I think he jumped the gun a little bit. Shes fresh out of this relationship [with Alex]. I think she just needs a little time to process everything. Its not necessarily that she doesnt have interest and feelings for DeLuca, but she needs some space. RELATED: 'Grey's Anatomy' Casts DeLuca's Sister for Season 14 They were great friends before and confidantes during a traumatic moment in her life, he added. Theres definitely bonding that happened there regardless. I see them having some kind of a relationship, whether its love or friends. Adding a wrinkle to Jo and DeLucas blossoming relationship … Continue reading

Leo who? Anatomy of a silly-season news story – Irish Times

Posted: Published on August 19th, 2017

If you are one of those people who like to type why is this news? beneath stories that arent about earthquakes or civil wars, then let yourself go. Reports of Taoiseach Leo Varadkar not being recognised in a restaurant will have already sent you into fits of fury. Be aware that proper news makes only incidental appearances in this column. I am here to praise Silly Season, not to bury it. (Though I fear we may have to do a bit of both.) That charming Leo story was a classic example of Silly Season in action. Young Emma Kelly, a Dublin student with an admirable lack of vanity, is working in a Chicago restaurant for the summer. Our new Taoiseach who apparently holidays in V-necked tops arrived for a bite of supper. Emma didnt recognise him and, after making the chief wait in a queue, directed him to a small table right beside a bucket of rotting fish heads. (I made up the very last bit. Somebody has to get the fake news rolling.) More power to her. After realising her mistake, she had a photo taken and gave various amusingly embarrassed interviews for the domestic media. Who expects to … Continue reading

Anatomy Of A Play: Preseason Week 1 – Turf Show Times – Turf Show Times

Posted: Published on August 19th, 2017

Ive thought of an idea which could be fun to Los Angeles Rams fan, and obviously myself. In this series, we can jump into the tape and breakdown a major play, or any impressive play from the prior week. Ive decided to start during the preseason just to see what you guys think, and to see whether its worth continuing or not. With the intro out of the way, lets get into it. The play Ive chosen to take a look at was in the first quarter of the game vs the Dallas Cowboys. It was a roll-out on offense that resulted in a 19-yard gain by rookie WR Cooper Kupp, which ultimately put the team in scoring position. This was the play. The Rams alignment here is a simple 2x2 formation with Robert Woods and Tyler Higbee (in-line) on the left, with Cooper Kupp and Pharoh Cooper on the right side of the formation. Todd Gurley is the singleback making this 11 personnel, which also means that on this play there are only one RB and one TE. Here is a breakdown of the routes across the board for the Rams weapons. Far left Robert Woods is running a … Continue reading

Anatomy of terror: What makes normal people become extremists … – New Scientist

Posted: Published on August 19th, 2017

Who and what are we fighting? Reuters By Peter Byrne VERA MIRONOVA rides Humvee shotgun through Mosuls shattered cityscape. It is late January 2017. Iraqi prime minister Haider al-Abadi has just declared east Mosul liberated from three years of rule by Islamic State, or ISIS. Most jihadist fighters are dead or captured, or have crossed the Tigris to the west, digging in for a final stand. Left behind, biding their time, are snipers and suicide bombers. Much of the population has fled to refugee camps on the outskirts. Those who stayed look lost and dazed. Men pull corpses out of houses destroyed by air strikes. Others cobble together street-corner markets, selling meat and vegetables imported from Erbil, 80 kilometres and another world away. Few women are visible. Mironova stands out, dressed in combat trousers and a Harvard sweatshirt, wisps of blonde hair escaping her blue stocking hat. Despite travelling in an armoured car, shes clearly not a combatant. Shes a social scientist, and her job is not to fight, but to listen, learn and record. Advertisement We stop for breakfast at My Fair Lady, a ramshackle restaurant that was a favoured eatery of ISIS fighters. The Iraqi special forces soldiers … Continue reading
