background:  nowadays mri examinations have been widely used in clinical applications for many diagnoses. the use of contrast agent in mri improves lesion detection and characterization and causes more accurate diagnosis.  objectives: the aim of this study was comparing to optimal dose of magnevist contrast agent in modified t1w se (spin echo), t1w fse (fast spin echo) and t1w gre (gradient ech...

ultra-short pulse is a promising technology for achieving ultra-high data rate transmission which is required to follow the increased demand of data transport over an optical communication system. therefore, the propagation of such type of pulses and the effects that it may suffer during its transmission through an optical waveguide has received a great deal of attention in the recent years. we...

In the present work, an adsorptive stripping voltammetric method using a hanging mercurydrop electrode (HMDE) was described in order to determine the ultra trace of thiosemicarbazidein different real samples. The method is based on accumulation of thiosemicarbazide on mercuryelectrode. The potential was scanned to the negative direction and the differential pulse strippingvoltammograms were rec...

This thesis presents a wireless synchronization protocol, which is able to disseminate a pulse signal through a network with an accuracy in the sub-μs range. The protocol is based on Glossy, a flooding architecture for wireless networks, which allows a packet to be transmitted through the whole network in a highly reliable and fast manner. Various techniques are used to enhance Glossy’s implici...

a highly sensitive differential pulse polarographic (dpp) method has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of osmium, based on the catalytic effect of osmium (viii) on the oxidation of pyrogallol red (pgr) by sodium bromate at ph 7.00 and 25.0 0.1 ? c. the reaction rate was monitored by measuring the differential pulse cathodic current of the oxidation product of pgr and bromate...

In the present work, an experimental investigation on wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) of Monel-400 has been presented. Monel-400 is a nickel–copper-based alloy, mostly employed in ships and corrosion-resisting applications. Four input WEDM parameters namely discharge current (Ip), pulse-on time (Ton), pulse-off time (Toff) and servo voltage (SV) have been investigated and modeled for...

Background: One of the main problems especially in operating room and monitoring devices is measurement of Blood Pressure (BP) by sphygmomanometer cuff.Objective: In this study we designed a new method to measure BP changes continuously for detecting information between cuff inflation times by using vital signals in monitoring devices. This will be achieved by extraction of the time difference ...

background & aim : pulse oximetry is a frequently used and standard non-invasive method for monitoring oxygen (o2)-saturation in blood. many factors including dark skin and pigmentation may effect on rate of saturation of the blood oxygen absorbed by pulse oximetry. the effect of nail polish and/or henna color on blood oxygen has not been yet identified and the present study has been carried ou...

one of the challenges in non-destructive testing schemes using the ultrasound pulse-echo technique is to identify those defects whose sizes are less than or equal to the detection resolution that is dependent on the width of the ultrasound pulse. existing methods also require a reference specimen of the same defective material, which may not be available in some cases. we present a new method f...
