Introduction to Currently Applied Device Pathology

An Introduction to Pathology

THIS collection of papers read at a symposium at King's College, London, in September, 1957, and published in November, 1958, is an account of studies, almost all of which have started from the discovery by Barr and Bertram in 1949 of a tiny mass of chromatin present in the nuclei of females and not in the nuclei of males. Professor Barr recounts in the introduction how carefully recorded obser...

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...

Surgery for Idiopathic Scoliosis: Currently Applied Techniques

This review discusses the basic knowledge and recent innovation of surgical treatment for scoliosis. Surgical treatment for scoliosis is indicated, in general, for a curve exceeding 45 to 50 degrees by the Cobb's method on the basis that: Curves larger than 50 degrees progress even after skeletal maturity.Curves larger than 60 degrees cause loss of pulmonary function, and much larger curves cau...

Introduction to GAL Device Architectures

In 1985, Lattice Semiconductor introduced a new type of programmable logic device (PLD) that transformed the PLD market: the Generic Array Logic (GAL) device. The E2CMOS® technology of the GAL devices gave them significant advantages over their bipolar PAL counterparts; not only could GAL devices be programmed quickly and efficiently, but they could also be erased and reprogrammed. Today, Latti...
