Computerized reconstructive tomography applied to breast pathology

Urethral extensibility applied to reconstructive surgery.

PURPOSE The human male urethra has great capacity to extend under traction. This extensibility is the principle of some surgical techniques used to overcome urethral defects and for penile lengthening. However, to our knowledge safe limits of urethral extensibility in reconstructive surgery have not been yet established by a morphological study. To this end we measured fresh human cadaveric ure...

Computerized Tomography

Tomography refers to the synthesis of sectional images or slices from external measurements of a spatially varying function. Line integrals are the most common external measures, which are also known as projections. Availability of multiple projections at diierent orientations allows accurate recovery of the originating function. Because practical implementation of tomography typically requires...

Reconstructive tomography with diffracting wavefieldst

A unified theoretical framework based on the scalar wave equation is presented for transmission tomography of weakly inhomogeneous objects embedded in a known uniform background medium. The developed formulation differs from the usual treatments of diffraction tomography in that it is not limited to applications employing plane-wave illumination and planar measurement boundaries and can be exte...

From Reconstructive Triangle to Reconstructive Quadrangle: Time to Include Tissue Distraction in the Reconstructive Algorithms

Applied Pathology

The introduction discusses the scope of the clinical pathologist's work and the dangers of inadequate knowledge of clinical medicine and of the patients on the part of pathologists. This draws attention to the separation of the clinician and pathologist so common at present, a state of affairs which brings discredit on much that would otherwise be esteemed. The laboratory tests and products are...
