Practice of Breast Ultrasound
The second edition of The Practice of Breast Ultrasound is an indispensable reference for the latest techniques in detecting common breast pathologies. New in this edition are guidelines for quality control and an expanded chapter on 3D scanning. More than 700 high-quality images, including new 100 images, demonstrate concepts of pathology and facilitate comprehension of diagnostic techniques. The book is organized into three main sections enabling radiologists, residents, and sonographers with various levels of expertise to rapidly locate topics of interest.Basic Course Provides an introduction to the fundamental principles of breast ultrasound, equipment selection, and standard protocols f...
Planetary Systems: Formation, Evolution, and Detection
`Are there other planetary systems like ours? Other planets like ours? Is there life elsewhere in the Universe?' So asks Dr. Lew Allen Jr. in the Foreword. In December of 1992, theorists, observers, and instrument builders gathered at the California Institute of Technology to discuss the search for answers to these questions. The International Conference, entitled `Planetary Systems: Formation, Evolution, and Detection' and supported through NASA's newly formed TOPS (Toward Other Planetary Systems) program, was the first of a series of conferences uniting researchers across disciplines and political boundaries to share thoughts and information on planetary systems. The conference was sponsored by NASA, hosted by JPL at Caltech, and endorsed by the 1992 International Space Year Association. These proceedings include discussions of topics ranging from stellar, disk, and planetary formation to new ways of searching for other stellar systems containing planets. The authors represent a wide range of nationalities, disciplines, and points of view. The second international conference took place in December of 1993.
The Oncobiology of the Prostate
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common newly diagnosed cancer among men in the United States today. With the advent of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, the number of newly diagnosed cases has increased tremendously. The rates of PCa have increased so dramatically over the last decade that the age-adjusted incidence rate of PCa is no greater than that for any other cancer among men in the United States. Although PCa rates have risen steadily since 1973, there has been a dramatic acceleration in the late 1980s which has been associated with the introduction and use of PSA for screening and early detection. There is now some evidence that the rates may be levelling off and even decre...
Precision Spectroscopy in Astrophysics
High-accuracy Doppler shift measurements and high-precision spectroscopy are primary techniques in the search for exo-planets. Further extremely interesting applications include the analysis of QSO absorption lines to determine the variability of physical constants and the analysis of the isotopic ratios of absorption lines both in stars and in QSOs, and the determination of stellar oscillations through radial velocity measurements. Since the use of high-precision/resolution spectroscopy is closely connected to the ability to collect a large number of photons, the scientific domains using this technique benefit tremendously from the use of 8-meter class telescopes and will fully exploit the tremendous gain provided by future Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs). IR high-resolution spectroscopy should soon approach the same accuracy regime achieved in the optical range. This volume comprehensively covers the astrophysical and technical aspects of high-precision spectroscopy with an outlook to future developments, and represents a useful reference work for researchers in those fields.
Genomic and Molecular Neuro-oncology
This book describes and illustrates the latest genomic and molecular techniques that are rapidly transforming the practice of clinical neuro-oncology and the direction of scientific investigation in modern brain tumor research. Each of the chapters provides a review of a specific subfield of contemporary molecular neuro-oncology, including recently implemented diagnostic and research applications. Among the important technical areas covered are the analysis of genomic instability, approaches to tumor invasion and angiogenesis, animal models, gene expression profiling, tissue microarray technology, mRNA splicing, functional genomics and genomics informatics. This book focuses on the latest genomics, molecular, and informatic approaches to neuro-oncology.
SPEC - Colorectal Cancer: Disease and Advanced Drug Delivery Strategies, 12-Month Access, eBook
Colorectal Cancer: Disease and Advanced Drug Delivery Strategies examines the combined impact of basic clinical and medical treatments as well as recent advances in the field of colorectal cancer. With a strong focus towards colorectal cancer diagnosis, disease drug delivery, and diagnosis, the book also examines the Tumor microenvironment-responsive and site-specific nanoparticles for cancer theragnostics. In 16 chapters Colorectal Cancer: Disease and Advanced Drug Delivery Strategies not only provides the opportunity to understand and diagnose the disease, but it also describes screening methods, drugs including nano- and immunotherapy, and gives insight into the role of nanoparticles, lip...
