Secrets will be revealed in this exciting volume of Star Wars: Hyperspace Stories, collecting issues #9–#12 of Dark Horse’s flagship All Ages Anthology series!
This book provides a thorough description of hexapod external fixators, from the theoretical basis to their practical application. Indications and practical use in current Orthopaedic practice are addressed in detail, offering the reader essential insights into the strengths and limitations of these devices. The main aspects covered, include primary (congenital) and secondary (acquired) deformities of the limbs: the etiology, pathomechanics, clinics, technical “tips and tricks” and suggested frame assemblies are presented. Each chapter addresses a specific Orthopaedic problem and includes representative clinical cases commented on by the authors. Illustrations and X-ray images support th...
This thesis focuses on a novel radio-guided surgery technique for complete tumor resections. It describes all aspects of the intraoperative probe, as well as testing and simulation of the novel technique. The presentation develops the technique from the initial idea to realistic feasibility studies that have been the subject of a press release of the American Society of Nuclear Medicine. Just a year after completing this work, the technique has now been tested for the first time on a meningioma patient, confirming all of the predictions made in this thesis.
Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos arrives on the crime ridden world of Bevana, on a mission that could be the key to ending the Clone Wars. But it turns out the defector he's tracking has more than Dooku's secrets, he's also made off with a sizeable amount of the count's fortune! Now Vos finds himself in a lethal race against time with the deadliest bounty hunter in the Galaxy, Cad Bane!
High-energy charged particles represent a cutting-edge technique in radiation oncology. Protons and carbon ions are used in several centers all over the world for the treatment of different solid tumors. Typical indications are ocular malignancies, tumors of the base of the skull, hepatocellular carcinomas and various sarcomas. The physical characteristics of the charged particles (Bragg peak) allow sparing of much more normal tissues than it is possible using conventional X-rays, and for this reason all pediatric tumors are considered eligible for protontherapy. Ions heavier than protons also display special radiobiological characteristics, which make them effective against radioresistant a...
Udo Dolos is a genius without parallel. Only he can solve the world's most complex and challenging problems. His solution? A copy of Udo Dolos for every problem. Hope is a resourceful former programmer who makes the most of the situation and becomes an exterminator specializing in the elimination of Udo clones. She gets a call that will change everything unless someone - or someones - gets to her first.
Ellie has been wanting to investigate the shady operations of the Dolos Corporation as long as she can remember. The day that her wish is granted becomes the worst day of her life as her colleagues and friends begin spontaneously bursting into flames around her. She doesn’t question who’s behind it. Before she’d stop at nothing to prove it. Now she’s not worried about justice. She wants revenge. It won’t be easy. Nothing comes as a surprise to the nefarious group behind the explosions, who seem to be a step ahead of Ellie as she goes deeper into the inner workings of the Dolos Corporation, losing herself along the way. What starts as a tale for revenge quickly becomes a struggle to survive.
Impressive progress has been made in the field of laser-plasma acceleration in the last decade, with outstanding achievements from both experimental and theoretical viewpoints. Closely exploiting the development of ultra-intense, ultrashort pulse lasers, laser-plasma acceleration has developed rapidly, achieving accelerating gradients of the order of tens of GeV/m, and making the prospect of miniature accelerators a more realistic possibility.This book presents the lectures delivered at the Enrico Fermi International School of Physics and summer school: 'Laser-Plasma Acceleration', held in Varenna, Italy, in June 2011.
