Reshaping Insanity in Pakistani Law: The Case of Safia Bano.

This Article analyzes the 2021 judgment of the Supreme Court of Pakistan in the case of Mst. Safia Bano v. Home Department, Government of Punjab.

Magneto-inductive catheter receiver for magnetic resonance imaging.

A catheter-based RF receiver for internal magnetic resonance imaging is demonstrated. The device consists of a double-sided thin-film circuit, wrapped around a hollow catheter and sealed in place with heat-shrink tubing. Signals are detected using a resonant LC circuit at the catheter tip and transmitted along the catheter using an array of coupled LC circuits arranged as a magneto-inductive waveguide, a form of low frequency metamaterial.

In vivo 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy using a needle microcoil.

Batch fabrication methods have been used to produce low-cost microcoils for magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) that could be discarded after applications such as insertion into tissue during interventional surgery. Needle-shaped microcoils were constructed using electroplated conductors buried in shafts formed with different combinations of silicon and plastic and used to acquire in vivo (31)P spectra of rat thigh muscle at 81 MHz. The designs in this study achieved a maximum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for phosphocreatine (PCr) of 10.
