PIDs and a range of electrochemical sensors have become commonplace as extra sensors in conventional 4-gas confined space entry meters to protect workers from exposure to a broad array of toxic organic and inorganic vapors. New wireless transmission systems have opened up a host of safer and faster detection capabilities, requiring less operator involvement and thus saving costs.

Purpose: To map physiological gas exchange parameters using dissolved hyperpolarized (HP) Xe in a rat model of regional radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) with spiral-IDEAL and the model of xenon exchange (MOXE). Results are compared to quantitative histology of pulmonary tissue and red blood cell (RBC) distribution.
Methods: Two cohorts (n = 6 each) of age-matched rats were used.

Background: Robotic pyelolithotomy (RPL) and robotic nephrolithotomy (RNL) may be utilized for treating kidney stones as an alternative to percutaneous nephrolithotomy or flexible ureteroscopy.
Objective: To describe the techniques of RPL and RNL, and present multi-center outcome data for patients undergoing these procedures.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This study was a retrospective analysis of 27 patients undergoing RPL and RNL at five tertiary academic institutions between 2008 and 2014.
