MRI utilizes the magnetic spin property of protons in hydrogen atoms to produce images. When an external magnetic field is applied, protons in the body align in one direction. RF waves are used to manipulate the magnetization of hydrogen nuclei. As the nuclei relax, they emit RF signals that are detected to produce images. T1-weighted images highlight tissues based on the time it takes hydrogen nuclei to recover longitudinal magnetization, while T2-weighted images highlight tissues based on the time for hydrogen nuclei to become dephased. Flair imaging uses a 180 degree pulse to null CSF signal, highlighting lesions adjacent to CSF. MRI is useful for imaging soft tissues and has advantages over CT such as no ionizing radiation and ability to use contrasts,
Cochlear implant imaging
1. Pre-operative imaging such as HRCT and MRI are important for cochlear implantation to evaluate anatomical variations and identify any contraindications.
2. Key factors assessed on imaging include the size of the internal auditory meatus, status of the cochlear nerve, and presence of any neurovascular anomalies which could increase surgical risk.
3. Congenital anomalies of the bony labyrinth or membranous structures detected on pre-operative imaging may influence the surgical approach and expectations of device insertion and outcome.

Review of Lasers in Dentistry and Safety Measures
This document reviews the use of lasers in dentistry and safety measures. It summarizes the main types of lasers used including CO2, Nd:YAG, diode, and discusses their applications such as caries removal, gum treatment, and teeth whitening. Lasers have advantages over traditional methods like less bleeding and minimal swelling. However, safety is an important concern as different lasers have varying tissue penetration and thermal effects. Proper training, safety equipment, and adherence to exposure limits are needed to ensure safe use of lasers in clinical procedures.
LASERS – IT’S ROLE IN PERIODONTAL REGENERATION
The use of lasers has evolved as clinical experience along with scientific investigation. The dental
lasers of today have benefited from decades of laser research and have their basis in certain
theories from the field of quantum mechanics. When used efficaciously and ethically, lasers are an
exceptional modality of treatment for many clinical conditions that dental specialists treat on a
daily basis. The concept of using lasers for the treatment of periodontal disease elicits very strong
reactions from all sides of spectrum. Evidence suggests that lasers are useful as an adjunct or
alternative to traditional approaches in periodontal therapy. Future direction of lasers would be
towards a minimally invasive regenerative procedures along with laser assisted calculus detection
systems using laser fluorescence that is optical coherence tomography and a laser system which
selectively and completely removes the plaque and calculus that is under development. With recent
advances and development of wide range of laser wavelengths, different instrument designs and
different delivery systems, the purpose of this review is to determine the application and current
concept of lasers in the regeneration of periodontal tissues.

The document discusses using a ytterbium-doped fiber laser for automated 3D bone ablation with depth control. Inline coherent imaging (ICI) is used to monitor ablation dynamics in real-time with micron precision. ICI data is processed to extract ablation depth, enabling feedback control of depth via laser pulse number. This allows precise ablation of complex 3D structures in bone with minimal thermal damage to surrounding tissue. The root mean square deviation between targeted and ablated shapes was 12.6 micrometers. Histological examination found the heat-affected zone was between 5-10 micrometers on fresh and dry bone samples.
Recent advances in periodontal surgical technology
Recent advances in periodontal surgical technology include the use of magnification systems like surgical microscopes and loupes, as well as lasers. Magnification improves accuracy and visibility for procedures like root planing. Microsurgery allows for less invasive surgery with reduced trauma and faster healing. Lasers can be used for soft tissue procedures and osseous contouring due to their hemostatic and bactericidal properties, but overuse risks thermal damage. Precautions are needed when using lasers to protect eyes and tissues.

Laser—An Emerging Tool in Surgical Periodontal Therapy: An Overview
Laser—An Emerging Tool in Surgical Periodontal Therapy: An OverviewBOHR International Journal of Current research in Dentistry (BIJCRID)
The use of lasers in dentistry, particularly in periodontics and peri-implant diseases, is becoming
increasingly common nowadays. Since their introduction in the late 20th century, they have revolutionized the
treatment options available for the management of periodontal disease. They allow the clinician to reach inside the
deeper pockets and help in reducing the bacterial load. They offer various advantages and have variations according
to their clinical use. This review presents an overview of their applications in periodontics.Thesisi of Dr. Talat Qadri
This document discusses the use of therapeutic and Nd:YAG lasers as adjunct treatments for periodontitis. It presents the results of four clinical studies that investigated the effects of low-level lasers and a single application of an Nd:YAG laser as supplements to scaling and root planing. The studies found that both therapeutic lasers and a single use of the Nd:YAG laser improved clinical outcomes and some immunological parameters when used in addition to conventional periodontal treatment. Longer coherence length appeared to produce slightly better results for therapeutic lasers.

留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径，但认证只是个体行为，不是所有留学生都操作，所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的，他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单，就有了使用价值。

This particular slides consist of- what is hypotension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.
