This paper presents a new robotic mechanism for ultrasound imaging. The device is placed on a patient's body by an operator, and an ultrasound expert controls the motions of the device to obtain ultrasound images. The paper focuses on the robotic mechanism that performs ultrasound imaging. The design of the mechanism is based on two approaches to produce center of motion for an ultrasound probe...

in this paper the effects of transmittance, dispersion angle and diffusion length on the quantum efficiency of solar cells (qesc) have been simulated and investigated. optical path technic is used for simulation. the results show that base thickness, diffusion length, dispersion angle, number of optical confinement path and transmission angles have an extremely effects on the qesc. simulation r...

the fabrication of a non-doped red organic light-emitting device (oled) has been developed using naturally occurring curcumin as an emissive layer of oled. in this research, the electroluminescent spectrum (el) of curcumin as a donor-acceptor-donor (d-a-d) chromophore was obtained at wavelength of 612 nm. also, the maximum external quantum efficiencies (eqe) for this device was measured and fou...

background : diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with a worldwide prevalence and its complications can be prevented with close monitoring of blood glucose. quality of blood glucose monitoring utilizing glucometers in iranian hospitalized patients has not been well published in the literature. we evaluated the accuracy and consistency of the results of two devices compared with the standard l...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Various measurement devices are available for detection of halitosis. For epidemiologic studies, it is necessary to use a portable and small device. This study aimed to investigation of correlation between measuring the device (Etiquette checker) with Halimeter. METHODS: One hundred volunteers (students and patients) participated in this study. The amount of volatile sulfur ...
