the first step in the prenatal diagnosis of x-linked genetic disorders is determining fetus gender. current invasive methods to obtain the dna source of the fetus instead of its miscarriage risk, has harmful stress for high risk pregnancies. cell free fetal dna (cffdna) circulating in the maternal blood, has now become a useful source of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis. considering limitation of...

Background and Aim: Fungal rhinosinusitis (FRS) sets in following interactivity of fungi with Sino nasal tract when immune system is subdued. Due to varied clinical presentation of FRS with inconclusive evidence of imaging, mycological evaluation helps to identify and speciate the fungi .FRS can be diagnosed with biopsy tissue and/or deep nasal swabs. This study was undertaken to know risk fact...

Background Total haemoglobin measurement (tHb) is one of the most commonly performed laboratory tests in patients admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Non invasive haemoglobin measurement is possible. In neonates this method can reduce iatrogenic blood loss. Studies performed in adults to compare haemoglobin (Hb) obtained with the use of non-invasive Hb monitor and laboratory me...

Condition monitoring and protection methods based on the analysis of the machine's current are widely used according to non-invasive characteristics of current transformers. It should be noted that, these sensors are installed by default in the machine control center. On the other hand, condition monitoring based on mathematical methods has been proposed in literature. However, they are model b...

scanning hall probe microscopy (shpm) is a scanning probe microscopy technique developed to observe and image magnetic fields locally. this method is based on application of the hall effect, supplied by a micro hall probe attached to the end of cantilever as a sensor.  shpm provides direct quantitative information on the magnetic state of a material and can also image magnetic induction under a...

case presentation an 85 years old patient presented because of intractable right leg pain with minimal activities. she was diagnosed with significant right foraminal stenosis and she failed conservative non-invasive therapies. conclusions percutaneous lumbar hydro decompression can be a promising method for the treatment of the patients with lumbar spinal stenosis and neurogenic claudication se...

INTRODUCTION The functions of the healthy brain can be studied in two main ways. Firstly, the changes in the brain’s state can be measured using techniques such as EEG or functional MRI. Secondly, the activity of the brain can be disrupted through the use of brain stimulation. The famous experiments of Wilder Penfield and colleagues in the 1950s showed the power of brain stimulation in people w...

The purpose of this study is to examine the correlation of measured regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) by means of a new microsphere method (non-invasive microsphere method), to the autoradiography (ARG) method, which is an established quantification method for 123I-IMP brain SPECT. The non-invasive microsphere (NIMS) method and ARG method were simultaneously applied to 30 patients, and quanti...
