We have measured biomechanical impedances by applying a random vibration (30-1000 Hz) to the layered model of human tissues to study the occurring mechanism of impedances measured at the skin surface. The data showed that the top tissue layer and the underlying layer both contribute to the impedance depending on the thickness of the top layer. The contribution of the underlying layer was clearer over the frequency range from 30 to 400 Hz. Quantitatively we found the following: The impedance measured at the surface was roughly expressed as the model which is connected in series by the impedances of the top and underlying tissues.

Our purpose was to study the changes of the systemic arterial wall's elastic properties non-invasively, in patients with established essential and with borderline hypertension, and to evaluate its possible determinants. Three groups of normotensive, borderline and established essential hypertensive patients were evaluated. Arterial pulse wave velocity (PWV) was measured and arterial compliance (Cm) was derived in all patients. Pulse wave velocity was obtained from the pressure values of digitized carotid and radial arteries. Arterial compliance (Cm = dD/dP with P pressure and D diameter) was calculated using a formula derived from the Bramwell and Hill equation: Cm = (1,334 x D)/(2 rho x PWV2), where for D humeral diameter was used as measured by high resolution echograph, and rho is the blood density (rho = 1.06). Pulse wave velocity was significantly higher in established essential hypertensive patients with respect to normotensive patients (p < 0.05). Arterial compliance was significantly diminished in established and in borderline hypertensive patients with respect to normotensive patients (p < 0.05), which implies early alterations in hypertensive cardiovascular disease. Multiple regression analysis of the cofactors showed that age and diastolic pressure are independent determinants of Cm. Impairment of the arterial wall's intrinsic elastic properties was demonstrated in established essential hypertension, independent of age and diastolic pressure.</p>","PeriodicalId":76136,"journal":{"name":"Medical progress through technology","volume":"21 Suppl ","pages":"5-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20342332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It proves to be suited for problems of any complexity, specially when they are formulated on well-established intermediate concepts, such as syndromes, clinical finding, laboratory procedures, etc., as is usually the case in medical procedures. This type of expert system uses the structural properties of the ganglionar lattice to produce explications for its conclusions at different levels of abstraction, and to an arbitrary, but fixed, explicative degree. A measure to evaluate the consequent's achieved preciseness (certainty) is also supplied.

Using movement parallax for 3D laparoscopy. 利用运动视差进行三维腹腔镜检查。

{"title":"Using movement parallax for 3D laparoscopy.","authors":"F A Voorhorst,&nbsp;K J Overbeeke,&nbsp;G J Smets","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>The lack of depth perception hampers the surgeon during laparoscopic operation. Laparoscopes usually are monocular, but binocular ones are currently available. Depth perception, however, does not exclusively rely on binocular disparity. An observer, with only one eye, who is able to move that eye, obtains the same information as an observer who has two eyes. This principle of movement parallax can be applied to laparoscopy by coupling the head movements of the surgeon to the motions of the tip of the laparoscope. In an experiment we investigated if this principle is applicable to laparoscopy. Two groups of testees with no background in surgery were used. The first group was assisted by movement parallax, the second group was viewing a static image. Both groups of testees had to perform an exploration and a manipulation task. Since the amount of space for camera motion within the laparoscope is limited, implementation potential depends on the amount of movements that will be made by the observer. Therefore the movements of the observer performing the exploration task were registered and analysed. Results of the experiment indicate the advantage of movement parallax for the exploration task (performance increases by factor 2 while using only 30% more time) but not for the manipulation task. The analysis of the movements indicates that small movements are sufficient for implementation. Based on these results we concluded that movement parallax is applicable to laparoscopy.</p>","PeriodicalId":76136,"journal":{"name":"Medical progress through technology","volume":"21 4","pages":"211-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20059357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
