Contemporary imaging of rectus diastasis and the abdominal wall

Diastasis of the rectus abdominis muscles (rectus diastasis, RD) is common, particularly in postpartum women. Although imaging is not always mandatory for assessment, several cross-sectional imaging techniques...

Extended lateral pelvic sidewall excision (ELSiE): an approach to optimize complete resection rates in locally advanced or recurrent anorectal cancer involving the pelvic sidewall

Complete pathological resection of locally advanced or recurrent rectal and anal cancer is regarded as one of the most important determinants of oncological outcome. Disease in the lateral pelvic sidewall has ...

Protein tyrosine kinase 7: a novel surface marker for human recent thymic emigrants with potential clinical utility

Recent thymic emigrants (RTEs) are antigenically naive T cells that have recently completed intrathymic maturation and have emigrated from the thymus to the periphery. RTEs are clinically and immunologically i...

Cross-Over Between First-Order and Critical Wetting at the Liquid-Vapour Interface of n-Alkane/Methanol Mixtures: Tricritical Wetting and Critical Prewetting

A simple mean-field theory is presented which describes the basic observations of recent experiments revealing rich wetting behaviour of n-alkane/methanol mixtures at the liquid-vapour interface. The theory, qual...

Observation of high-energy neutrinos using Čerenkov detectors embedded deep in Antarctic ice

Neutrinos are elementary particles that carry no electric charge and have little mass. As they interact only weakly with other particles, they can penetrate enormous amounts of matter, and therefore have the p...

Observation of short-range critical wetting

Mean-field theory correctly predicts the critical behaviour of systems close to a phase transition, provided that fluctuations can be neglected. Fluctuations, however, become important if the dimensionality of...

Direct Optical Imaging of Superfluid ⁴He Droplets on a Cesium Surface

The recent discovery that ⁴ He does not wet the surface of cesium makes possible the study of superfluid droplets. We have used a long focal length microscope to s...
