Computed Tomography of the Lung: A Pattern Approach aims to enable the reader to recognize and understand the CT signs of lung diseases and diseases with pulmonary involvement as a sound basis for diagnosis. After an introductory chapter, basic anatomy and its relevance to the interpretation of CT appearances is discussed. Advice is then provided on how to approach a CT scan of the lungs, and the different distribution and appearance patterns of disease are described. Subsequent chapters focus on the nature of these patterns, identify which diseases give rise to them, and explain how to differentiate between the diseases. The concluding chapter presents a large number of typical and less typical cases that will help the reader to practice application of the knowledge gained from the earlier chapters. Since the first edition, the book has been adapted and updated, with the inclusion of many new figures and case studies.
— Bart De Wever fileert hot topic— Van postmodernisme tot wokisme: alle achtergronden— Strijdend pamflet tegen een groeiende tendens“Dit pamflet kant zich tegen de zelfvernietigingsoorlog die een flink deel van de intellectuele elite voert tegen de moderne, westerse samenleving.”Woke startte vanuit een drang naar non-discriminatie, maar bereikt intussen het omgekeerde. Woke houdt de westerse mens een spiegel voor van zijn eigen slechtheid. We worden moreel gedwongen tot schaamte.De samenleving bestaat dan alleen nog uit slachtoffers en daders, waarbij die laatsten wordt aangemaand het boetekleed aan te trekken en onvrij te zijn in woord en gedachte. Vooral in de academische wereld is het wokisme zeer intens aanwezig en wordt vrijheid bedreigd.Bart De Wever pleit voor samenhang, vooruitgangsdenken, vrijheid en verknochtheid aan de waarden van de verlichting, zonder schuld en boete over wie wij, gemeenschap van Vlamingen, zijn en waren.
De Wever's ode to the invisible world around us allows readers to peer directly into a minute microcosm with massive implications, even traversing eons to show us how life arose on Earth.
Feyen rethinks the framework within which the connection between EU law and national constitutional law can be understood.
This book deals with the development of private secondary schooling during the Second World War in Belgium. It focuses on how the German occupier used education to gain acceptance of the regime, and discusses the attitudes of Belgian education authorities, schools, teachers and pupils towards the German occupation. Suggesting that the occupation forced Belgian education authorities, such as the Roman Catholic Church, to take certain positions, the book explores the wartime experiences and memories of pupils and teachers. It explains that the German Culture Department was relatively weak in establishing total control over education and that Catholic schools were able to maintain their education project during the war. However, the book also reveals that, in some cases, the German occupation did not need total control over education in order to find support for some authoritarian ideas. As such, Van Ruyskenvelde’s analysis presents a nuanced view of the image of the Catholic Church, schools, teachers and pupils as mere victims of war.
Cell culture based research is important for our understanding of biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. Using this approach, the previous decades have produced a wealth of mechanistic information in all areas of biomedical research. Such in vitro research, however, lacks the complexity of in vivo investigations, where many different cell types interact with each other in a normal, three-dimensional environment, with normal levels of cytokines and growth factors. Furthermore, complex human diseases, such as cancer, diabetes or chronic inflammation, can only be modeled in vivo. Due to its small size, its short reproduction time, and the possibility to introduce specific gen...
