Automated Measurement of Meridian Functions

Automated measurement of urinary iodine.

We describe a simplified, automated method for screening urinary iodine. Digestion with strong acid is avoided by dialyzing urine and then directly analyzing iodine in the dialysate with the ceric ion-arsenious acid system. This method is particularly useful for analyzing large numbers of samples without loss in precision. Urinary iodine excretions are reported for 1224 children 1 to 6 years of...

Automated measurement of brain dimensions

-This paper describes a technique for automating the measurement of brain width and length at the level of the hi-parietal diameter, by processing an axial computed tomography (CT) brain scan image. The development of this algorithm derives from the wish to normalise patient data according to skull size and.shape, for the purpose of comparing new patient data with that fiom past cases. This alg...

توابع درهم نقش بسیار مهم در سیستم های رمزنگاری و پروتکل های امنیتی دارند. در سیستم های رمزنگاری برای دستیابی به احراز درستی و اصالت داده دو روش مورد استفاده قرار می گیرند که عبارتند از توابع رمزنگاری کلیددار و توابع درهم ساز. توابع درهم ساز، توابعی هستند که هر متن با طول دلخواه را به دنباله ای با طول ثابت تبدیل می کنند. از جمله پرکاربردترین و معروف ترین توابع درهم می توان توابع درهم ساز md4, md...

Investigation of the Lower Resistance Meridian: Speculation on the Pathophysiological Functions of Acupuncture Meridians

It was pointed out in the two earlier papers of the present author that the meridians are in fact zones in the loose connective tissue containing richer interstitial fluid and thus are lower-resistance passages for diffusion of meridian-signal carriers or mediators. Moreover, a hypothesis, which incorporates the wide variety of functions of the loose connective tissue, the circulatory system, a...
