This Special Issue offers a little taste of the immense variety of an intrinsically vast and interdisciplinary subject, namely, the applications of engineering to surgery. Some of these have been successfully applied or are still under development, while we have been offered a preview of others thanks to the fantasy of creative science fiction writers. This Special Issue aims to stimulate the interest of engineers and surgeons, who will benefit from mutual advantages gained from their cooperation.
Australian and New Zealand volunteers were already in Serbia, treating wounded Serbian soldiers and fighting a typhus epidemic, before the ANZACs landed at Gallipoli in 1915. The Gallipoli Campaign sealed Serbia’s fate, however, as Germany, Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria moved to secure a land supply corridor to Turkey through Serbia. Australians and New Zealanders accompanied the Serbian Army on a deadly retreat over wintry mountains to the Adriatic coast. When the fighting shifted to the Salonika or ‘Macedonian’ Front, many served there with the British Army, the Royal Flying Corps, two AIF units and six Royal Australian Navy destroyers in the Adriatic and Aegean Seas. Some died in act...

A femtosecond laser is a laser which emits ultrashort pulses, used for minimally invasive corneal surgery. This book is a concise guide to femtosecond laser technology and the various techniques for its use. The internationally recognised authors from the US, Europe and Asia, begin with an introduction and description of current technology and future prospects. The following chapters discuss the step by step application of the techniques to different ocular disorders. The book includes more than 200 colour illustrations and images and an ancillary DVD presents real life examples of various femtosecond laser procedures.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging test that uses light waves to take cross-section pictures of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue lining the back of the eye (geteyesmart.org). Anterior segment OCT covers structures in front of the vitreous humour – iris, cornea, lens and ciliary body. Posterior segment OCT includes the anterior hyaloid membrane and all the structures behind it – vitreous humour, retina, choroid and optic nerve. This book is a comprehensive guide to the use of OCT in anterior and posterior segment surgery. Beginning with an introduction to the technique, the following chapters examine OCT for numerous different procedures including for corneal disorders, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, keratoconus and refractive surgery. The accompanying interactive DVD ROM demonstrates intraoperative use of OCT for different surgical procedures. Key points Comprehensive guide to OCT in anterior and posterior segment surgery Covers numerous procedures for different parts of the eye Interactive DVD ROM demonstrates intraoperative use of OCT Includes nearly 270 clinical photographs, diagrams and tables
What does Australia’s military history reveal about us? In Beyond The Broken Years – fifty years after The Broken Years, Bill Gammage’s classic on World War One soldiers, was published – provocative military historian Peter Stanley argues why it’s vital for Australians to understand how our military past has been created. By whom, how and with what consequences. Stanley explores military history and the storytellers – from historians Charles Bean, Henry Reynolds, Joan Beaumont and David Horner to ‘’storians’ Peter FitzSimons and Les Carlyon. And grapples with what it means to write military history, its different approaches, the rise of popular writers and much more. He ask...
Covering all major components of the ocular system, this state-of-the-art text is essential for vision scientists, biomedical engineers, and advanced clinicians with an interest in the role of mechanics in ocular function, disease, therapeutics, and surgery. With every chapter, leading experts strengthen the arguments that biomechanics is an indispensable and rapidly evolving tool for understanding and managing ocular disease.
This comprehensive and sophisticated video atlas comprises of more than 345 videos of some of the important and finest ophthalmic surgeries by approximately 200 contributors from all over the world. It would serve as a landmark reference not only for teaching residents in ophthalmic surgery practices, but also to experienced surgeons. This revised and updated second edition through its high quality videos demonstrates step by step, the latest techniques involved in both anterior and posterior segment surgeries along with a narration. The new technologies, especially Femtosecond Laser Refractive and Cataract Surgery, Minimally Invasive Surgery 23G and 25G, Posterior Segment Surgery and other new techniques have been described in the second edition. -- Publisher.
This book addresses customized laser vision correction, an integral management option for the treatment of irregular corneas. This type of treatment reshapes the corneal surface in order to improve both the quality and the quantity of vision by reducing high order aberrations. Beginning with an introduction to the basics of this science, each type of customized laser vision correction is discussed in a clear and didactic format for rapid attainment of information. Throughout this practical clinical guide, examples are supported with the most recent scientific material and a step-by-step systematic methodology is included to fit all levels of ophthalmologists.
