Pleural manometry: technique and clinical implications.
INTRODUCTION Pleural manometry during large-volume thoracentesis can prevent the development of excessively negative pleural pressures, which have been associated with re-expansion pulmonary edema; can diagnose an unexpandable lung; and can predict pleurodesis success. We currently perform pleural manometry simultaneously with both a vertical-column water manometer with an interposed resistive ...
متن کاملneuronavigation: principles, clinical applications and potential pitfalls.
localization of brain lesions and prevention of damage to vital structures are important in operation of brain pathologies. despite development of many techniques including angiography, mri, sonography, and frame base stereotaxy, a more accurate localizing technique is still needed (1, 2). a step forward to achieve this goal is to develop a navigation system. in this manuscript, we explained so...
متن کاملAnorectal Manometry: Current Techniques and Indications
Anorectal manometry measures the pressures of the anal sphincter muscles, sensation in rectum, and the neural reflexes that are needed for normal bowel movements. This test is mainly performed to evaluate patients with constipation or fecal incontinence but is also useful for pre/post surgical evaluation of anal sphincter tone, functional anorectal pain, pelvic floor dyssynergia and diagnosis o...
متن کاملEmerging Optical CDMA Techniques and Applications
In this paper we present an in-depth review on the trends and the directions taken by the researchers worldwide in Optical Code Division Multiple Access (OCDMA) systems. We highlight those trends and features that are believed to be essential to the successful introduction of various OCDMA techniques in communication systems and data networks in near future. In particular we begin by giving a c...
متن کاملApplications and Pitfalls
M icroarrays are simple assays that measure the relative expression levels of tens of thousands of genes. Excitement about their importance and potential contributions to biology and medicine has been intense. Nonetheless, recent insights into the limitations and pitfalls of microarrays have led to caution about data interpretation. Microarrays are very useful but they are also very misleading;...
