Incidental radiological finding of charm needles
The charm needles, or susuks, are small, needle-shaped metallic talismans inserted subcutaneously in different parts of the body. This is a traditional practice, occasionally encountered in the Southeast Asian region. This case report describes two patients who were evaluated in the emergency department and incidentally found to have charm needles on the plain radiographs. These needles are not...
متن کاملSoft tissues
The deposition of amorphous calcium salts within the soft tissues is variously called mineralization or calcification. Two forms of calcium salts may be found in the soft tissues: calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate and calcium hydroxyapatite. If bony trabeculae are discernible within the mineralized focus the term ossification is used, sometimes prefixed with the terms ectopic or heterotopic. Ther...

متن کاملStresses in growing soft tissues.
Biochemical processes of tissue growth lead to production of new proteins, cells, and other material particles at the microscopic level. At the macroscopic level, growth is marked by the change of the tissue shape and mass. In addition, the appearance of the new material particles is generally accompanied by deformation and, consequently, stresses in the surrounding material. Built upon a micro...
متن کاملInstabilities in Elastomers and in Soft Tissues
Biological soft tissues exhibit elastic properties which can be dramatically different from rubber-type materials (elastomers). To gain a better understanding of the role of constitutive relationships in determining material responses under loads we compare three different types of instabilities (two in compression, one in extension) in hyperelasticity for various forms of strain energy functio...
