Beginning with an introduction to the technique and classification of the landmarks, the following chapters explain each point in detail, by section of the head – cranial bones, facial bones and dentition, soft tissue, cervical bones and pharynx. The final sections discuss the different types of imaging used to trace cephalometric landmarks and their applications. Key points Presents technique of cephalometry to diagnose, and plan and evaluate treatment in orthodontics Describes every landmark by section of the head, including abbreviation, definition and applications Compares alternative radiological imaging techniques Includes more than 350 colour images and illustrations
Download or read book Cryopreservation written by Marian Quain and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-06-10 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cryopreservation - Current Advances and Evaluations sheds light on storage of cells at subzero temperatures while ensuring that biological functionality is not compromised. Cryopreservation presents a perfect technique by which life can be preserved for posterity. However, there are many challenges to overcome and questions to answer, such as: Are organisms and metabolic systems functioning normally after cooling and thawing? This book provides comprehensive information on cryopreservation with a particular focus on cryoprotectant agents (CPAs). CPAs prevent ice from forming on cryogenically preserved cells, tissues, and organs, but can become toxic at high concentrations. As such, more research is needed to determine their precise mechanisms of action and to develop potential new CPAs that will not compromise the biology of cells. This book is an attempt in this direction.
