Clinical applications of Calcium phosphate compounds are done in most cases with powders of Calcium-tri-phosphate and/or Hydroxylapatite to enhance the surgery of orthopaedic repair. The application of microspheres of these compounds has big advantages to faster surgery and higher strength of the bone structure. The special processes to produce microspheres of narrow size distribution and high sphericity out Calcium-tri-phosphate and Hydroxylapatite are described. Properties and composition of these microspheres as calcined and as sintered are given.

Abstract.All observed optical and infrared properties of Saturn's E-ring can be explained in terms of Mie scattering by a narrow size distribution of ice spheres of 2 - 2.5 micron diameter. The spherical shape of the ring particles and their narrow size distribution imply a molten (possibly volcanic) origin on Enceladus. The E-ring consists of many layers, possibly stratified by electrostatic levitation.

A review of the studies on the use of the antigen-antibody system HMW-MAA 225.28S in melanoma radioimmunodetection is reported. The results obtained in a pilot study (42 patients with 74 lesions), a multicenter trial (254 patients with 553 lesions) and a prospective study still outstanding (29 patients with 38 lesions) allow to consider this system as suitable for clinical application. F(ab′)2 labelled with 99mTc gave the best results in terms of positivity. Moreover this radioisotope allows the best dosimetric conditions. The gamma energy emitted by this radionuclide is particularly convenient for conventional scintillation cameras and ECT. Very good results in terms of sensitivity (70%-85%) and especially specificity (about 100%) were achieved. Possible clinical applications of the method are discussed.

AbstractRecent investigations have focused on the clinical application of artificial intelligence (AI) for tasks specifically addressing the musculoskeletal imaging routine. Several AI applications have been dedicated to optimizing the radiology value chain in spine imaging, independent from modality or specific application. This review aims to summarize the status quo and future perspective regarding utilization of AI for spine imaging. First, the basics of AI concepts are clarified. Second, the different tasks and use cases for AI applications in spine imaging are discussed and illustrated by examples. Finally, the authors of this review present their personal perception of AI in daily imaging and discuss future chances and challenges that come along with AI-based solutions.

In the field of physical medicine there is need for a book which will outline the principles underlying therapeutic exercise, and which will give definite examples of their clinical application. The physiologic foundation for many of the clinical applications of exercises is not too firm, so that a book which would be able to relate the principles of exercise to the fundamental underlying physiologic principles would be a most valuable one. The author attempts to do this in the first part of this book, which is called "Fundamental Working Principles."
