Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Ophthalmoscopy
This book focuses on the emerging non-invasive imaging technique of Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Ophthalmoscopy (FLIO). FLIO reveals unique information on retinal diseases, ranging from age-related macular degeneration and vascular diseases to hereditary retinal dystrophies. Fluorescence lifetimes enable the evaluation of disease progression before irreversible structural changes occur. The image acquisition is suitable for diagnostic purposes and follow-up examinations to investigate the natural course of disease, and to monitor the effects of possible therapies. This book fills the gap between available literature and gives state-of-the-art guidance on the principles of the FLIO technique, image acquisition, and data analysis. Written by a team of expert leaders within this field, this book will be relevant for scientists and clinicians with an interest in ophthalmoscopy.
Novelties in Diabetes
The field of diabetes mellitus research is currently characterized by rapid and remarkable growth that has led to the development of significant diagnostic and therapeutic advances. This is very important given the fact that the frequency of the disease continues to increase at alarming rates worldwide. This new volume is a comprehensive overview of the contemporary state of the art in the field. Experts shed light on a broad range of relevant aspects, from genetic background to topics related to diabetic complications such as diabetic retinopathy or diabetic nephropathy. This is expanded upon through papers reporting on the present state of diabetes in pregnancy and on the relationship betw...
Nobel Faces
Viereinhalb Jahre lang reiste der Berliner Fotograf Peter Badge um die Welt und traf alle 260 noch lebenden Nobelpreisträger. Das Resultat dieses einmaligen Projekts ist ein beeindruckender Bildband mit schlichten Schwarzweiß-Porträts, ergänzt durch die jeweilige Kurzbiographie.
High Resolution Imaging in Microscopy and Ophthalmology
This open access book provides a comprehensive overview of the application of the newest laser and microscope/ophthalmoscope technology in the field of high resolution imaging in microscopy and ophthalmology. Starting by describing High-Resolution 3D Light Microscopy with STED and RESOLFT, the book goes on to cover retinal and anterior segment imaging and image-guided treatment and also discusses the development of adaptive optics in vision science and ophthalmology. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the reader will learn about the latest developments and most up to date technology in the field and how these translate to a medical setting. High Resolution Imaging in Microscopy and Ophthal...
Pioneers In Microbiology: The Human Side Of Science
Pasteurization, penicillin, Koch's postulates, and gene coding. These discoveries and inventions are vital yet commonplace in modern life, but were radical when first introduced to the public and academia. In this book, the life and times of leading pioneers in microbiology are discussed in vivid detail, focusing on the background of each discovery and the process in which they were developed — sometimes by accident or sheer providence.
Translational Autoimmunity, Volume 5
Translational Autoimmunity: Challenges for Autoimmune Diseases, Fifth Edition addresses diagnostic approaches, therapeutic opportunities, and prognostic markers of different autoimmune diseases. This updated volume discusses autotoxicity, systems immunology, the prognostic significance of disease-specific autoantibodies, along with translational research to novel therapeutic policy in autoimmune diseases. From an introduction, to challenges and insights on the systems immunology of infectious and autoimmune diseases, new targets of treatments, and the role of autoantibodies in diagnosis and evolution, this book provides insights on many challenges researchers and clinicians are facing. Describes challenges in the diagnosis, management and treatment of autoimmune diseases Highlights major difficulties in the diagnosis and management of autoimmune diseases Reflects important remediable deficiencies in current management Meets the needs of basic scientists, clinicians and translational scientists and industry partners

From X-rays to DNA
An argument that technology accelerates biological discovery, with case studies ranging from chromosome discovery with early microscopes to how DNA replicates using radioisotope labels. Engineering has been an essential collaborator in biological research and breakthroughs in biology are often enabled by technological advances. Decoding the double helix structure of DNA, for example, only became possible after significant advances in such technologies as X-ray diffraction and gel electrophoresis. Diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis improved as new technologies—including the stethoscope, the microscope, and the X-ray—developed. These engineering breakthroughs take place away from the ...
Female Alopecia
Few dermatologic problems carry as many emotional overtones as hair loss in women, which is by far the most common hair problem encountered in daily clinical practice. Fortunately, a specific diagnosis can usually be established through the application of appropriate examinations and tests, and treatment suited to the diagnosis is likely to control the problem. This comprehensively illustrated monograph provides both specialists and primary care physicians with the practical know-how required for successful management of hair loss in female patients of all ages. The book opens by critically examining various myths about hair loss. The different examination techniques are then described, and the various forms of hair loss and their treatment are discussed in detail. Approaches to follow-up are outlined, and the management of patient expectations is carefully considered. The potential role of hair care and cosmetics is also explored in some depth.
Clinical Ophthalmic Genetics and Genomics
Practical Genomics for Clinical Ophthalmology provides in-depth coverage of the clinical applications of genomics in eye disease, with a key emphasis on case-study based instruction in patient care and genetic counseling aspects, genetic and genomic diagnostics, and treatment pathways. The book presents the latest information on genetic and genomic test results, best practices for delivery of results to patients and families, and ongoing research into therapeutics, with specific chapters covering non-syndromic inherited retinal disease, syndromic IRD, vitreoretinopathies, lens abnormalities, corneal disease, albinism, anterior segment dysgenesis, glaucoma, developmental eye abnormalities, ny...
