General surgery encompasses interventions involving organs within the abdominal cavity, as well as other regions of the body such as the breast and thyroid. Additionally, it encompasses procedures performed on various other body areas that may be relevant to multiple medical specialties. Procedures that aren’t specialized in nature. Given that chest and brain surgeries are…

A novel approach to treating obesity entails the implementation of electrodes within the muscular layers of the stomach. Through the application of electrical impulses, these electrodes regulate the rhythmic contractions of the stomach, resulting in a sensation of satiety with reduced food intake. This experimental surgical procedure aims to assist patients in achieving a sense…

When gas bubbles infiltrate the bloodstream and impede its circulation, a condition referred to as gas embolism arises. This phenomenon is also commonly known as an air embolism.  

Scientific investigations are focused on altering viruses to enhance their transmissibility or virulence, with the purpose of identifying such strains promptly and developing improved treatments and vaccines.  

Fighter pilots don specialized flight suits that incorporate compartments designed to inflate with either air or fluid. This ingenious feature serves the purpose of preventing blood from accumulating in the lower extremities when subjected to sudden acceleration or tight maneuvers.  

The Xonics tomographic and radiographic system provides a range of imaging capabilities, including linear, circular, and trispiral tomography, in addition to routine radiographic functions.  

Evenly spaced lines or marks that occur during the film transport, manifesting as either positive or negative density variations. These lines are attributed to the guide shoe adjustment on the developer rack of an automatic processor being set too close to the adjacent roller.  

The term used to describe the electromotive force (emf) generated by the magnetic field expanding around a conductor.  

A conductor employed for connecting electric equipment to a ground rod or another grounded object.  

A conductor wire links the highest voltage point of the x-ray equipment to the ground or earth, serving as a safety measure to prevent electrical shocks. In this setup, any surplus of electrons can be discharged to the ground, while any shortage of electrons can be replenished from the ground.
