The incidence of multiple pregnancies has increased with the increasing use of assisted reproductive techniques. This super-specialty title intends to cover basic epidemiology, associated complications and management of multiple pregnancy. The aim of this book is to provide a comprehensive, up to date and an evidenced-based discussion of multiple pregnancy and recent advances in its management. The chapters are divided in such a way that all three trimesters are discussed separately with all the relevant details. Pedagogical features like learning objectives, key learning points, text in highlighted boxes throughout the chapters provide the essential knowledge. Ideal for postgraduate students – MS and DNB, practitioner segment in obstetrics and gynaecology
The first edition of this book was published in 1994. Since then considerable progress has been made in both theoretical developments of percolation theory, and in its applications. The 2nd edition of this book is a response to such developments. Not only have all of the chapters of the 1st edition been completely rewritten, reorganized, and updated all the way to 2022, but also 8 new chapters have been added that describe extensive new applications, including biological materials, networks and graphs, directed percolation, earthquakes, geochemical processes, and large-scale real world problems, from spread of technology to ad-hoc mobile networks.
The human brain is extraordinary complex and yet its origin is a simple tubular structure. Rapid and dramatic structural growth takes place during the fetal and perinatal period. By the time of birth, a repertoire of major cortical, subcortical and white matter structures resembling the adult pattern has emerged, however there are continued maturational changes of the gray matter and white matter throughout childhood and adolescence and into adulthood. The maturation of neuronal structures provides the neuroanatomical basis for the acquisition and refinement of cognitive functions during postnatal development. Histological imaging has been traditionally dominant in understanding neuroanatomy...
This title is part of a two volume set that constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Asian Conference on Computer Vision, ACCV 2007. Coverage in this volume includes shape and texture, face and gesture, camera networks, face/gesture/action detection and recognition, learning, motion and tracking, human pose estimation, matching, face/gesture/action detection and recognition, low level vision and phtometory, motion and tracking, human detection, and segmentation.
With a novel, less classical approach to the subject, the authors have written a book with the conviction that signal processing should be taught to be fun. The treatment is therefore less focused on the mathematics and more on the conceptual aspects, the idea being to allow the readers to think about the subject at a higher conceptual level, thus building the foundations for more advanced topics. The book remains an engineering text, with the goal of helping students solve real-world problems. In this vein, the last chapter pulls together the individual topics as discussed throughout the book into an in-depth look at the development of an end-to-end communication system, namely, a modem for communicating digital information over an analog channel.
Fully revised throughout, the new edition of this concise textbook is aimed at doctors preparing to specialize in stroke care.
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International ICST Conference, ADHOCNETS 2011, held in Paris, France, in September 2011. The 15 revised full papers - selected from 42 submissions - and the 2 invited papers cover several fundamental aspects of ad hoc networking, including security, quality of service, radio and spectrum analysis, mobility, energy efficiency, and deployment. They are organized in topical sections on security and QoS, WSN development and evaluation, radio and spectrum analysis, mobile WSNs, mobile ad hoc networks, and energy.
This new edition fully updates and expands Faro and Mohamed’s Functional Neuroradiology, a gold standard, comprehensive introduction to the state-of-the-art functional imaging in neuroradiology, including the physical principles and clinical applications of Diffusion, Perfusion, Permeability, MR spectroscopy, Positron Emission Tomography, BOLD fMRI and Diffusion Tensor Imaging. With chapters written by internationally distinguished neuroradiologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, cognitive neuroscientists, and physicists, Functional Neuroradiology is divided into 12 major sections, including: Diffusion and Perfusion Imaging, Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and Chemical Exchange Saturation T...
