WEB technology--the future of teleradiology?

With the widespread use of the Internet, standard browsers are widely available in radiological and clinical departments. So far the limited speed of the Internet has made teleradiology via the Internet too slow for practical use, but many hospital LANs are now connected to the World Wide Web through high speed access. The new JavaScript technology has made it possible to view examinations with web browsers as simple images instead of sending the full examination data.

Production of cyclomaltononaose (delta-cyclodextrin) by cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases from Bacillus spp. and bacterial isolates.

The conversion of soluble starch to cyclomaltohexaose (alpha-CD), cyclomaltoheptaose (beta-CD), cyclomaltooctaose (gamma-CD) and cyclomaltononaose (delta-CD) by cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases (E.C. 2.

MR imaging of the wrist in carpal tunnel syndrome.

Purpose: To determine whether specific parameters measured on MR images correlated to electrophysiological changes in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Material And Methods: Prospective clinical examinations were made of 20 patients with suspected CTS. We performed bilateral electrophysiological examinations of the median nerve and bilateral MR imaging of the wrists.
