A robust method for the removal of non-cerebral tissue in T1-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) brain images is presented. This procedure, often referred to as skull stripping, is an important step in neuroimaging. Our novel approach consists of a single morphological operation, namely a modified three-dimensional fast watershed transform that is perfectly suited to locate the brain, including th...

OBJECTIVES To compare the long-term results of stripping vs. haemodynamic correction (Ambulatory Conservative Haemodynamic Management of Varicose Veins, CHIVA) in the treatment of superficial venous incompetence resulting in chronic venous disease (CVD). DESIGN Randomised comparative trial. PATIENTS 150 patients affected by CVD, CEAP clinical class 2-6, were randomised to saphenous strippin...

Liquid membranes usually consist of an extracting agent (carrier) in an organic solvent which separates "feed" and "stripping" phases containing aqueous solutions of the solute of interest and a stripping agent, respectively. In supported liquid membranes (SLMs) the membrane solution is immobilised into a thin solid microporous support, between the feed and stripping phases where transport is f...

Sodium hydrosulfite is conventionally used for the color stripping of reactive dyes in textile industry. However, research has been focused on eco-friendly processes to reduce wastewater generation recent years. This study aimed at estimating efficacy ozone according dyes’ chromophore groups. The dyed cotton-knitted fabric with three that have phthalocyanine (Reactive blue 21), diazo black 5) a...

The influence of nanoparticle aggregation on anodic stripping voltammetry is reported. Dopamine-capped silver nanoparticles were chosen as a model system, and melamine was used to induce aggregation in the nanoparticles. Through the anodic stripping of the silver nanoparticles that were aggregated to different extents, it was found that the peak area of the oxidative signal corresponding to the...

INTRODUCTION Orthopaedic fracture fixation plates are applied using metal bone screws. Surgeons do this manually by “feel” without monitoring the torque applied. Few studies have measured the stripping torque of bone screws in human bone [1-3]. No studies have measured stripping torque in the synthetic bones increasingly being used in biomechanical studies. The present aim was to measure stripp...
