La fisura labio palatina es una malformación craneofacial congénita producida por la falta de fusión los procesos nasales mediales y maxilares durante las primeras semanas del desarrollo embrionario. Este caso clínico tuvo como objetivo principal, moldear conformar estructuras orofaciales a través ortopedia prequirúrgica en paciente con palatina. Los resultados se obtuvieron al colocar el Model...

We present the case of a 72-year-old male who underwent thyroidectomy for encapsulated follicular carcinoma (3.5 cm×3 cm) in the left thyroid lobe andwas referred to the Department of Nuclear Medicine for ablationof thyroid remnants.Onadministrationof 131I (3700MBq) theTSHvaluewas63.8 IU/ml, thyroglobulin0.4ng/ml and antithyroglobulin antibodies 25.70U/ml. In the whole body scan (WBS) performed...

Microsystem technologies are believed to be an important part of the technological foundation upon which the world can continue to improve the standard of living in the twenty-first century. Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have been studied intensely for over two decades. Si-based MEMS, fabricated by surface and bulk micromachining techniques derived from IC processing technology, dominat...

This paper focuses on an integrated optimization problem that involves multiple qualitative and quantitative responses in the thin quad flat pack (TQFP) molding process. A fuzzy quality loss function (FQLF) is first applied to the qualitative responses, since the molding defects cannot be simply represented by the relationship between molding conditions and mathematical models. Neural network i...

The incidence of auricular deformities is believed to be ∼11.5 per 10,000 births, excluding children with microtia. Although not life-threatening, auricular deformities can cause undue distress for patients and their families. Although surgical procedures have traditionally been used to reconstruct congenital auricular deformities, ear molding has been gaining acceptance as an efficacious, noni...

Taking the special-shaped plastic part as the research object, numeric simulation and experimental study of the injection molding process are completed based on the synthetical application of numeric simulation technology, orthogonal experiment method, Moldflow, injection machine and CMM. Optimal feeding system and molding process parameters are obtained and qualified products are produced. The...

This article describes the use of a newly invented compound stick gun to take impressions for complete denture. The border molding process involves loading the modeling compound in an electric heating device and applying an even thickness of compound on the flange of a custom tray at a proper temperature without hot water tempering. This method provides a quicker and easier border molding proce...
