The TiO(2) nanotube layer was in situ synthesized on the surface of pure titanium by the electrochemical anodic oxidation. The diameter of nano- TiO(2) nanotubes was about 70~100 nm. The surface morphology and phase compositions of TiO(2) nanotube layers were observed and analyzed using the scanning

In our efforts to develop a guidance system for laparoscopic liver surgery, we are working towards a live animal tumor model. The objective of this study was to establish the tumor model for live porcine liver, visible on both computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound images. The tumor model was creat

OBJECTIVE: The better knowledge concerning the anatomo-physiology of erection has brought important changes to the management of priapism. We experimented with a staged therapeutic protocol forthis condition.MATERIALS AND METHODS: 17 patients, aged from 27 to 71 (mean age 43) were treated for ischem
