There are many textbooks of respiratory medicine. The purpose of Clinical Respiratory Medicine is not to duplicate these, but to provide something new and different. Its primary focus is on taking a history and eliciting and interpreting clinical signs. This has been achieved by extensive use of videos, photographic images, 3D animation and audio. Although it is not a reference textbook, the aetiology of many respiratory diseases are also covered. Users will be able to see 3D animation of pulmonary lobar anatomy, hear the difference between fibrotic and bronchiectatic crepitations in real patients, hear what stridor and pleural rubs really sound like, see bronchioscopic biopsy of bronchial carcinomas and removal of inhaled foreign bodies, as well as many other clinical signs. Clinical Respiratory Medicine also includes a facility to automatically connect to an online CPD point allocation system.

This Proceedings contains a selection of papers presented at the joint meeting of The American Ceramic Society's (ACerS) Glass and Optical Materials Division (GOMD) and the 18th University Conference on Glass, held in Rochester, NY on May 20-23, 2007. The theme of the University Conference was Mass Transport Phenomena in Glasses and Glass-Forming Melts and included contributions on topics such as gas diffusion and solubility, crystallization behavior, ionic conductivity, and chemical durability. The GOMD program included sessions devoted to optical materials, biological interactions with glass, and glass structure.

Quick access to data and fast property estimation techniques for organic compounds. An invaluable time-saver for busy scientists and researchers, the Toolkit uses algorithms derived from more than 2,700 published sources to calculate these key properties of organic compounds quickly and easily: Density and molar volume Boiling point Refractive index and molar refraction Melting point Surface tension and parachor Water solubility Viscosity Air/water partition coefficient Vapor pressure Octanol/water partition coefficient Enthalpy of vaporization Soil/water partition coefficient. These properties can be estimated using published methods and, in some cases, temperature-dependent functions. Complete bibliographic citations are included for each property estimation technique, and properties are simultaneously retrieved for approximately 24,000 organic compounds, most of them derived from the Registry of Physicochemical Data. The Toolkit is flexible and easy-to-use, allowing the user to perform structure and database searches. It contains EndNote 3 Demo Version for searching and viewing an extensive bibliography comprising more than 2,700 references. Structures can be created in CS ChemDrawNet? or imported via clipboard function from other chemical drafting programs using MDL MOLfile format, or imported from disk as MDL MOLfiles. Minimum system requirements. IBM-compatible PC 486 Win95(r) or higher CD-ROM drive and 8MB RAM 18MB free hard disk space for minimum installation.

Experienced endoscopists will learn the 'tricks of the trade' shared by the world's leading experts. Two multimedia CD-ROMs with digital video and original soundtrack. Each procedure includes background information and important caveats. Key references accompany each procedure. The world's leading authorities demonstrate the very latest endoscopic advances. Provides a direct and easy way of navigation by the click of the mouse to any desired place.

This highly practical diagnostic tool is an indispensable resource for both the office and the noninvasive cardiovascular laboratory. The accompanying CD contains images and video-clips displaying the dynamic aspects of vascular pathology to aid diagnosis and learning. Each image can be enlarged to enable the user to fully discern the main features, and for ease, the CD can be searched by image type, condition/disease or techniques.

Among the varied methods of diagnosis in vascular medicine, duplex ultrasonography remains the primary modality, and continues to evolve as an accurate, reproducible, and inexpensive method to diagnose and follow patients with arterial and venous disorders. Duplex ultrasonography also remains the best diagnostic technique for extracranial carotid artery disease. Most atherosclerotic disease is limited to the origin and proximal internal carotid artery, and at this location, the vessel is commonly straight.This CD-ROM advances the field of multimedia education, presenting every aspect of carotid duplex ultrasonography in this unique format, including anatomy and physiology, the basics of ultrasound, and the performance of carotid duplex scanning. Following this, several real-life cases are presented, and the user is instructed to answer questions, such as which probe to use, what the study reveals, etc. All aspects of duplex scanning, including non-atherosclerotic carotid disorders (fibromuscular dysplasia, spontaneous dissection, etc) and carotid stent-supported angioplasty, are reviewed in-depth.

An interactive, hands-on resource CD for anyone dealing with structures, strength of materials, and structural designs! This easy-to-use CD-ROM helps users visualize the components of standard structures, and read and interpret civil engineering construction drawings. Two-dimensional drawings (plans, elevations, sections, etc.) and text are enhanced by sketches, solid models, photographs, and animations of actual buildings and structural components. It provides a visual database of structural engineering information brought to life using 2-D and 3-D sketches, CAD drawings, photographs, and animation.

The 33rd International Conference on Advanced Ceramics and Composites (ICACC) was held January 18-23, 2009 in Daytona Beach, Florida with over 1000 attendees from 39 countries. The 2009 meeting was organized by The American Ceramic Society (ACerS) and ACerS Engineering Ceramics Division. In addition, ACerS Electronics Division and Nuclear and Environmental Technology Division contributed to the technical program. Energy related themes were a mainstay, with symposia on nuclear energy, solid oxide fuel cells, materials for thermal-to-electric energy conversion, and thermal barrier coatings participating along with the traditional themes of armor, mechanical properties, and porous ceramics. Newer themes included nano-structured materials, advanced manufacturing, and bioceramics. Once again the conference included topics ranging from ceramic nanomaterials to structural reliability of ceramic components, demonstrating the linkage between materials science developments at the atomic level and macro-level structural applications.

This title contains all the proceedings of the 35th International Conference on Advanced Ceramics and Composites.
