Purpose: Children are sometimes examined with Computed Tomography protocols designed for adults, leading to radiation doses higher than necessary. Lack of optimisation could lead image quality what is needed diagnostic purposes associated high patients. Optimising the paediatric head trauma CT imaging will reduce dose. Objective: The study aimed optimise dose and assess a set by evaluating nois...

PURPOSE The purposes of this descriptive study were (a) to identify the relative frequencies of a priori categories of phantom limb pain (PLP) quality descriptors reported by Mid-Southerners with limb loss, (b) to analyze their descriptions for emerging categories of PLP, and (c) to identify the relative frequencies of the emerging categories. DESIGN This cross-sectional descriptive verbal su...

This report describes the brain responses to acupuncture in an upper limb amputee patient. A 62-year-old male had previously undergone a lower left arm amputation following an electrical accident. Using functional MRI, we investigated brain responses to acupuncture stimulation in the aforementioned amputee under three conditions: (a) intact hand, (b) prosthetic hand (used by the patient), and (...

introduction: poor sensitivity and poor signal to noise ratio because of low injected thallium dose and presence of scattered photons are the main problems in using thallium in scintigraphic imaging of the heart. scattered photons are the main cause of degrading the contrast and resolution in spect imaging that result in error in quantification. thallium decay is very complicated and photons ar...

Computer Science finds a wide range of applications in a variety of fields. In this modern world, the use of different human senses in the field of computers is becoming more and more common and the sense of touch is no exception. In this paper, we have given an overview of haptic technology, which is entirely related to the sense of touch. Haptic technology is a field which is yet to be comple...
