background total correction of tetralogy of fallot (tof) anomaly in early childhood has been practiced in many centers with good results, but in some of patients after few years sever pulmonary valve insufficiency occurred. materials and methods at a cross- sectional study from january 2015 to january 2016, 10 patients who had history of primary repair of tof with free pulmonary insufficiency (...

repair of the mitral valve is the treatment of choice for mitral valve regurgitation when the anatomy is favorable. it is well known that mitral valve repair enjoys better clinical and functional results than any other type of valve substitute. this fact is beyond doubt regardless of the etiology of the valve lesion and is of particular importance in degenerative diseases. this review analyzes ...

mitral valve replacement (mvr) is usually performed in two methods of running and interrupted suturing. in running method, the suturing of the valve is usually with some traction on the annulus and also there is a risk of aortic valve injury. this study was conducted to evaluate a new technique for suturing to avoid these complications and decrease the time of cardiac arrest. one hundred and se...

Objective: Different categories are available for estimating of radiation dose. Radioisotopes with the same energy and almost the same physical properties have similar effects. Monte Carlo technique is a computerized method based on mathematical simulation of physical processes. The main purpose of this study is to show that beta particles are not able to penetrate deep into the water. also dif...

  Introduction: Aortic valve sclerosisis considered as a manifestation of coronary atherosclerosis. Recent studies demonstrated an association between aortic valve sclerosis and obstructive coronary artery disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluatethe correlation betweenaortic valve sclerosis andobstructive coronary artery disease and the extent of coronary artery disease in patients ho...

<p class="Abstract">The conventional three-phase alternating current (AC) to direct (DC) converter can be modified using two isolated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) as by-pass switches connected tapping points on the secondary side of transformer. This scheme yields a reduction in both harmonic contents and reactive volt-ampere absorption. possibly eliminates need for an on-load tap-chang...

moving towards nanometer scales, quantum-dot cellular automata (qca) technology emerged as a novel solution, which can be a suitable replacement for complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (cmos) technology. the 3-input majority function and inverter gate are fundamental gates in the qca technology, which all logical functions are produced based on them. like cmos technology, making the basic c...
