Why arc engineers taking more and more interest in problen~s of health and medicine? In part, perhaps, it is a question of a guilty conscience. After all, engineers have seen the destructive power of their inventiveness in the effects of air and water pollution, weapons for the military, and biological and chemical warfare. Can they have as much impact, of a positive sort, in such fields as hea...
متن کاملInteraction of the ionic liquid [BMP][TFSA] with rutile TiO2(110) and coadsorbed lithium.
Aiming at a fundamental understanding of the processes at the electrode|ionic liquid interface in Li ion batteries, we investigated the interaction of the ionic liquid n-butyl-n-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [BMP][TFSA] and of Li with a reduced rutile TiO2(110) (1 × 1) surface as well as the interaction between [BMP][TFSA] and Li on the TiO2(110) surface under ultrahigh ...
متن کاملA new liquid material for embolization of arteriovenous malformations.
We have developed a liquid material for embolization of arteriovenous malformations that is a mixture of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer and metrizamide dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide. Upon contact with blood, dimethyl sulfoxide rapidly diffuses into the blood and forms an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer elastic soft sponge that obstructs both the feeder and the nidus. The material, which is...
متن کاملBalloons and coils: aids in particulate/liquid head-neck embolization.
In embolization procedures of the external carotid artery (ECA) system, it is ideal to selectively embolize only the involved feeding branch or branches. This usually requires superselective catheterization , which can be difficult. The catheter diameter may approximate vessel diameter closely enough to reduce flow. Vessel spasm may be generated by catheterization attempts. Spasm may lead to re...
متن کاملNeurologic complications of arteriovenous malformation embolization using liquid embolic agents.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Embolization of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is commonly used to achieve nidal volume reduction before microsurgical resection or stereotactic radiosurgery. The purpose of this study was to examine the overall neurologic complication rate in patients undergoing AVM embolization and analyze the factors that may determine increased risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS We per...
