With the recent advancements in interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) imaging it is necessary to understand how heliospheric images may be interpreted, particularly at large elongation angles. Of crucial importance is how the current methods used for coronal mass ejection measurement in coronagraph images must be changed to account for the large elongations involved in the heliosphere. We...

STUDY DESIGN Basic Science. To investigate humeral head translations and glenohumeral ligament elongation with a dual fluoroscopic imaging system. BACKGROUND The glenohumeral ligaments are partially responsible for restraining the humeral head during the extremes of shoulder motion. However, in-vivo glenohumeral ligaments elongation patterns have yet to be determined. Therefore, the objective...

Postsynaptic potentials (PSPs) were recorded from cat striate cortical cells by the whole-cell in vivo recording technique using patch-clamp electrodes. EPSPs and IPSPs evoked by flashing bars on the receptive field at different positions and orientations revealed the spatial structure of the excitatory and inhibitory inputs. The elongation of the excitatory input field (length:width ratio) was...

The formation of aneurysm of abdominal aorta (AAA), is a multi-factorial and predominantly degenerative process that results from a complex interplay between biological processes in the arterial wall and the hemodynamic stimuli on the wall, i.e. wall shear stresses (WSS) and elongations of the wall directly applied on vascular endothelial cells (EC) partly regulate the arterial wall remodelling...
