Damage of the normal tissue is a serious concenrn in cancer treatment. Hyperthermia by laserhas been considered as a safe cancer treatments methods with lower harmful effects on normaltissues. Using nanoparticles in cancer treatment has improved laser therapy, which is based ona selective cell targeting method to localize cell damages. Metallic nanoparticles such as gold,silver, and copper have...

Background: Laser-tissue interaction on low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has widespread medical applications (e.g., improved wound healing). The tensile strength of radiated tissue by LLLT is known to be increased mainly because of cross collagen bands developed after radiation.Objective: In this work, we studied the instantaneous effect of radiation of polarized laser beam on the viscoelastic ti...

Background: Treatment of vitiligo remains an attractive topic and several therapies with varying degrees of success have been used. The aim of this study was to find out whether the combination of topical calcipotriol and excimer laser increases the efficacy of therapy compared to excimer laser alone. Methods: Twenty eight patients in two groups were treated with 308nm excimer laser alone (14 p...

For the successful tree establishment, an evaluation of land suitability is necessary.In this paper, we demonstrate how to implement fuzzy classification of land suitability in aGIS environment for afforestation with Juglans regia in Gharnaveh Watershed of GolestanProvince in Iran. Juglans regia is one of the most important agro-forestry species in manyrural parts of Iran. Relevant criteria for...

in this work, laser bending of perforated sheets has been investigated numerically. laser bending of perforated sheets is more complicated than non-perforated sheets due to their complex geometries. in this paper, laser bending of perforated sheets is studied numerically in the form of thermo-mechanical analysis with abaqus/implicit code. for this purpose, the effects of process and sheet param...

Water resources suitability is one of the most important factors to sustainabilityutilization of natural potential by rangeland grazing suitability. To determine this factor inshort time, low cost and high accuracy are most challenges of experts and ranchers. Usingsuitable technique for this subject can be sustainable utilization comprising from rangelandecosystems according to its degradation ...

Background: Laser treatment is a rapid, non-invasive procedure for long-term hair removal. Lasers operate based on the principle of selective photothermolysis and target melanin in the hair follicle. We intend to determine the level of hirsute patient satisfaction with the alexandrite laser hair removal procedure.Methods: In this cross-sectional study 82 hirsute patient...

INTRODUCTION First lesions to occur in the course of systemic sclerosis (SSc) involve microcirculation. AIM The study involved assessment of the suitability of laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) in examination of the performance of skin microcirculation in the distal portion of the upper extremity in SSc patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Overall the study involved 27 patients with systemic sclerosi...

We report on a novel gel based on diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) for the simultaneous measurement of cations and anions and its suitability for high resolution chemical imaging by using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS). The new high resolution mixed binding gel (HR-MBG) is based on zirconium-hydroxide and suspended particulate reagent-iminodiacetat...
