A comparison of images obtained using 75Se-methionine revealed changes in the shape and position of the pancreas when the patient was in the supine and right lateral decubitus positions. These changes, which were appreciable and often marked in 93% of 168 patients with a probable normal pancreas, sometimes helped in the interpretation of an image. Similar changes were noted in 12 (63%) of 19 patients with chronic pancreatitis where an adequate image could be obtained.

In living organisms, the natural motion caused by heartbeat, breathing, or muscle movements leads to the deformation of tissue caused by translation and stretching of the tissue structure. This effect results in the displacement or deformation of the plane of observation for intravital microscopy and causes motion-induced aberrations of the resulting image data. This, in turn, places severe limitations on the time during which specific events can be observed in intravital imaging experiments.

A positional instability of the beam on the workpiece in the order of magnitude of tens of µm and noticeable distortions of the beam shape were observed when no cross jet was used. Both perturbations were reduced when a cross jet was applied to remove the process emissions from the beam path and minimized when the cross jet was positioned closest to the workpiece.

The laser spot centroid positioning method, which offers low computational complexity and strong adaptability to beam shape, is currently the core measurement method during the laser acquisition phase. However, due to various interference factors encountered in practical tests, this algorithm often falls short of meeting the extremely high requirements.

Architectural metamaterials that span different length scales and are either self-similar or dissimilar to one another make up hierarchical lattices. Comparing hierarchical lattices to traditional ones reveals that they offer superior and customizable properties, which allows for a wide variety of material property manipulation and optimization. Each computer network can be represented as a graph, where nodes alternate as vertices and links are edges.

Fronto-orbital advancement and remodelling (FOAR) is the standard of care for management, aiming to normalise the brow shape and position while ameliorating the risk of raised intracranial pressure (ICP) throughout childhood. Published long-term surgical outcome data for unicoronal synostosis is lacking.
