objective: at present, growth factor-containing products such as enamel matrix derivatives, recombinant bone morphogenetic protein (rh-bmp), recombinant platelet derived growth factor and platelet rich plasma (prp) have gained increasing attention. prp is an autologous source of platelet growth factors used to enhance healing of soft and hard tissues. prp has gained popularity due to its autolo...

results the accuracy for detecting number of main renal arteries were not different in both groups which were 96.7% in ct angiography group and 90% in traditional angiography group (p = 0.15). the accuracy for detection of main renal veins were 100% in group 1 and 96.7% in group 2 (p = 0.31). patients and methods a total number of 60 living kidney donors who underwent open surgical approach for...

today, lasers are widely used in biology and medicine, and the majority of healthcenters and hospitals utilize modern laser systems for diagnosis and therapy applications.researchers have introduced different medical applications for different lasers used in surgeries and other medical treatments. medical lasers can be categorized in both diagnosis and therapy branches. main difference between ...

laser-tissue interaction is of great interest due to its significant application in biomedical optics in both diagnostic and treatment purposes. major aspects of the laser-tissue interaction which has to be considered in biomedical studies are the thermal properties of the tissue and the thermal changes caused by the interaction of light and tissue. in this review paper the effects of light on ...

in this paper an automatic examination robot was developed to improve the process of cancer detection, tumor localization and geometrical shape diagnosis. a uniformly distributed compressive load was applied to the top tissue surface and the resultant mechanical stress was measured that was employed for the tumor diagnosis task. the experimental examinations were performed on the soft tissue of...

needle insertion is a minimally invasive technique in diagnosing and treating tumors. however, to perform a surgery accurately, the tissue should have minimum amount of displacement during needle insertion so that it reaches the target tissue. therefore, the tissue membrane has to move less to decrease rupturing under the membrane. in this study, the effect of different design parameters on dis...

background: persian gulf is a semi-closed environment which is affected by pollution ‎from heavy metals. entrance of heavy metals to the water column and binding to ‎sediment particles can affect the benthic organisms that can accumulate these ‎materials in their body. noticing this ability, mussels are considered as bio-monitoring ‎agents.‎ methods: the pearl oyster, pinctada radiate, and sedi...
