Laser Hair Removal

What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser Hair Removal is a quick, non-invasive way to permanently reduce unwanted hair.

How does the treatment work?

The area to be treated is cleansed and shaved. A topical numbing cream may be applied. The technician scans the treatment area with the laser, which emits a specific wavelength that passes harmlessly through skin and into the hair follicle. The follicle is heated and damaged, putting an end to hair growth.

How many treatments are required?

Hair growth can only be affected during the growth cycle. Several sessions are required to destroy all hair follicles.

Is Laser Hair Removal safe?

Laser Hair Removal is a common, quick and safe procedure. A variety of lasers have been FDA approved for hair reduction.

Are there any possible side effects?

You may experience stinging, mild swelling and pigmentation changes immediately after treatment. These effects are temporary, as are the rare appearance of blisters and lesions. Scarring and the activation of viral infections, such as herpes and shingles, may occur if you are already predisposed. For this reason, you must give a complete medical history before treatment.

Will there be any downtime?

No, you may return to your normal routine immediately.

What are the benefits of Laser Hair Removal over other treatments?

Laser Hair Removal is fast and has long term results. Other hair reduction methods must either be done often or hair by hair.

What can be expected post-treatment?

The area may be red and swollen immediately after treatment. You can return to your normal schedule, but keep out of the sun and use sunscreen. Over the next few weeks your hair will appear to grow as it falls out.

How soon will results appear?

Results are revealed as your hair goes through its normal cycles. By six months, you should have an idea of how much hair has been reduced.

How long does a Laser Hair Removal treatment last?

The procedure may take anywhere from minutes to hours depending on the size of the area to be treated.

What conditions respond best to this treatment?

Laser Hair Removal works best on those with darker hair than skin tone.

Who are candidates for Laser Hair Removal?

With the newest lasers, individuals of all skin and hair types can be treated.

Who should avoid Laser Hair Removal?

If you have a history of keloid formation, excessive scarring or poor healing, you may not be right for this treatment. Tattoos and permanent makeup can be altered by Laser Hair Removal. This treatment cannot be performed in areas with open sores, lesions or infections.

How does the treatment feel?

Patients usually experience mild pain which can be followed by several hours of a sunburn-like sensation.

How long do the results last?

Results vary from person to person. Permanent reduction is common but cannot be guaranteed.

What are the alternative treatments?

Traditional methods of hair removal include shaving, plucking, waxing, depilatory creams and electrolysis.

Is additional treatment necessary?

Yes, several sessions are required to achieve a consistent hairless effect.

What are the limitations of Laser Hair Removal?

Certain lasers work on melanin, so their use is limited to people with hair darker than skin tone. In general, Laser Hair Removal cannot guarantee permanent hair removal.

Instructions prior to treatment: Avoid Accutane® for six months before treatment, and avoid anti-inflammatory drugs and Retin-A® for three weeks before treatment. You should not tan (sunless or otherwise) or use any method of hair removal besides shaving for six weeks prior to your session.

Instructions for after treatment: Keep the area clean and dry. For the first few days, do not scrub or irritate the skin with heavy creams, chemicals, lotions or sun exposure. Use sunscreen with SPF 45 or greater. Apply moisturizers, cold compresses or over-the-counter steroid creams at your discretion. Contact your physician if you develop blisters, scabbing or signs of infection. Your hair will still appear to grow for two or three weeks as it falls out. Additional treatments can be performed until you achieve the desired effect.

X-Ray: New Heart Procedure Eliminates Exposure

“One of the most exciting things about our research is the direct impact on patient care and safety,” says lead researcher John D. Ferguson. According to the researchers, more than two million Americans suffer from atrial fibrillation (AF), a condition characterised by an irregular heart rate that can lead to weakness, blood clotting and stroke. 

In order to regulate the heart’s rhythm, physicians commonly perform a catheter ablation – a procedure in which doctors use x-ray fluoroscopy to guide a catheter, or flexible tube, to the affected area of the heart. The procedure typically lasts three to four hours, leaving patients and medical providers exposed to significant radiation. 

Yet Ferguson’s research team say they have developed and successfully tested a new technique to perform catheter ablation of AF using an ultrasound catheter (intracardiac echocardiography) and electroanatomic mapping without the use of x-ray fluoroscopy for the entire procedure: Using an ultrasound catheter within the heart, physicians can obtain high resolution images of the heart and other key anatomic structures. This provides complete visualisation at all times of the catheter’s location, allowing physicians to steer the tube to affected target areas while avoiding injury to key cardiac structures. 

The technique also uses a computer mapping system, which displays in 3D the image of the heart and the catheter’s location and allows physicians to record precise location points along the catheter’s path. 

And to further eliminate radiation exposure in AF patients, the new technique uses cardiac MRI instead of CT scans for all required imaging prior to the procedure. Researchers performed the novel technique in a pilot study on 21 consecutive patients. Larger studies are needed to confirm the safety of the procedure.

Biomedical engineering (BME) is the application of engineering principles and techniques to the medical field. It combines the design and problem solving skills of engineering with medical and biological sciences to help improve patient health care and the quality of life of individuals.

As a relatively new discipline, much of the work in biomedical engineering consists of research and development, covering an array of fields: bioinformatics, medical imaging, image processing, physiological signal processing, biomechanics, biomaterials and bioengineering, systems analysis, 3-D modeling, etc. Examples of concrete applications of biomedical engineering are the development and manufacture of biocompatible prostheses, medical devices, diagnostic devices and imaging equipment such as MRIs and EEGs, and pharmaceutical drugs.
Disciplines in biomedical engineering

Biomedical engineering is an interdisciplinary field, influenced by various fields and sources. Due to the extreme diversity, it is typical for a biomedical engineer to focus on a particular emphasis within this field. There are many different taxonomic breakdowns of BME, one such listing defines the aspects of the field as such

Bioelectrical and neural engineering
Biomedical imaging and biomedical optics
Biomaterials
Biomechanics and biotransport
Biomedical devices and instrumentation
Molecular, cellular and tissue engineering
Systems and integrative engineering
In other cases, disciplines within BME are broken down based on the closest association to another, more established engineering field, which typically include:

- Chemical engineering - often associated with biochemical, cellular, molecular and tissue engineering, biomaterials, and biotransport.
- Electrical engineering - often associated with bioelectrical and neural engineering, bioinstrumentation, biomedical imaging, and medical devices.
- Mechanical engineering - often associated with biomechanics, biotransport, medical devices, and modeling of biological systems.
- Optics and Optical engineering - biomedical optics, imaging and medical devices.

Medical devices can be regulated and classified (in the US) as shown below:

Class I devices present minimal potential for harm to the user and are often simpler in design than Class II or Class III devices. Devices in this category include tongue depressors, bedpans, elastic bandages, examination gloves, and hand-held surgical instruments and other similar types of common equipment.
Class II devices are subject to special controls in addition to the general controls of Class I devices. Special controls may include special labeling requirements, mandatory performance standards, and postmarket surveillance. Devices in this class are typically non-invasive and include x-ray machines, PACS, powered wheelchairs, infusion pumps, and surgical drapes.
Class III devices require premarket approval, a scientific review to ensure the device's safety and effectiveness, in addition to the general controls of Class I. Examples include replacement heart valves, silicone gel-filled breast implants, implanted cerebellar stimulators, implantable pacemaker pulse generators and endosseous (intra-bone) implants.

Fluoroscopy
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Nuclear Medicine
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) PET scansPET-CT scans
Projection Radiography such as X-rays and CT scans
Tomography
Ultrasound
Electron Microscopy

-- Tissue engineering
One of the goals of tissue engineering is to create artificial organs for patients that need organ transplants. Biomedical engineers are currently researching methods of creating such organs. In one case bladders have been grown in lab and transplanted successfully into patients. Bioartificial organs, which utilize both synthetic and biological components, are also a focus area in research, such as with hepatic assist devices that utilize liver cells within an artificial bioreactor construct.

Signals and Systems, 2nd Edition by Alan V. Oppenheim, Alan S. Willsky, with S. Hamid

The second edition of this well-known and highly regarded text can be used as the basis for a one- or two-semester undergraduate course in signals and linear systems theory and applications. Topics include basic signals and systems concepts, linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, Fourier representations of continuous-time and discrete-time signals, the CT and DT Fourier transforms, and time- and frequency-domain analysis methods. The author emphasizes applications of the theory through numerous examples in filtering, sampling, communications, and feedback.

The parallel development of continuous-time and discrete-time frequency domain methods allows the reader to apply insights and intuition across the two domains. It also facilitates a deeper understanding of the material by bringing into focus the similarities and differences between the two domains. The text also includes introductory chapters on communication systems and control theory. This book assumes that you have a background in calculus as well as exposure to complex numbers and elementary differential equations. Because of its thoroughness and unhurried pace, this text is highly recommended for students and those interested in self-study.

Biomedical Engineers from all the world  United

Biomaterials: from old to new world

Biomaterials is the term used to indicate a special class of materials, expressly used for medical applications. The ways they can be used can be directing, replacing or supporting a particular function of human body. In biomedical engineering we have always used materials like METALS, POLYMERS or CERAMICS. During the last years engineers have started to think that it's not about how devices can be designed in order to follow needs and limits of traditional materials, but how we can process materials in order to have a particular kind of device responding to our requests. This is the aim of composite materials, born to provide alternative choices to overcome failure and limits of traditional materials.

Biomaterials are expected to perform in human body, which is a very aggressive environment, many parameters vary in a large scale in different tissues, for example pH that varies from 1 to 9, or stress on bones, varying from 4 MPa to 40-80 MPa. More than this, these stresses are repetitive and fluctuating depending on the activities.

Polymers are used in many applications, mainly because they can be engineered in a wide variety of properties or forms or compositions. Anyway the problem is about the loss of mechanical properties in some applications, furthermore it's difficult choosing the sterilization processes that may affect the properties.

Ceramics are known for high compression resistance,high stiffness and good biocompatibility; on the other hand they have low fracture strength, low mechanical reliability and are difficult to fabricate, sometimes very expensive.

Metals are widely used for their high strength, resistance to wear and ductility. Drawbacks of metals include corrosion, low compatibility, release of metal ions which may cause allergic reactions and high stiffness compared to tissues.

Composite materials are the most innovative, containing in macroscopic or microscopic scale, two or more phases, usually fibers in a polymeric matrix. They can provide better performance compared to homogeneous materials. They can control the macroscopic and microscopic properties of the material through the variation of volume fractions and interfaces (grain size, porosity, size of phases).

PET / CT

What is Positron Emission Tomography – Computed Tomography (PET/CT) Scanning?

Sample image obtained using a combination of PET and CT imaging technology.

Positron emission tomography, also called PET imaging or a PET scan, is a type of nuclear medicine imaging.

Nuclear medicine is a branch of medical imaging that uses small amounts of radioactive material to diagnose or treat a variety of diseases, including many types of cancers, heart disease and certain other abnormalities within the body.

Nuclear medicine or radionuclide imaging procedures are noninvasive and usually painless medical tests that help physicians diagnose medical conditions. These imaging scans use radioactive materials calledradiopharmaceuticals or radiotracers.

Depending on the type of nuclear medicine exam you are undergoing, the radiotracer is either injected into a vein, swallowed or inhaled as a gas and eventually accumulates in the organ or area of your body being examined, where it gives off energy in the form of gamma rays. This energy is detected by a device called a gamma camera, a (positron emission tomography) PET scanner and/or probe. These devices work together with a computer to measure the amount of radiotracer absorbed by your body and to produce special pictures offering details on both the structure and function of organs and tissues.

In some centers, nuclear medicine images can be superimposed with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) to produce special views, a practice known as image fusion or co-registration. These views allow the information from two different studies to be correlated and interpreted on one image, leading to more precise information and accurate diagnoses. In addition, manufacturers are now making single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) and positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) units that are able to perform both imaging studies at the same time.

A PET scan measures important body functions, such as blood flow, oxygen use, and sugar (glucose) metabolism, to help doctors evaluate how well organs and tissues are functioning.

CT imaging uses special x-ray equipment, and in some cases a contrast material, to produce multiple images or pictures of the inside of the body. These images can then be interpreted by a radiologist on a computer monitor as printed images. CT imaging provides excellent anatomic information.

Today, most PET scans are performed on instruments that are combined PET and CT scanners. The combined PET/CT scans provide images that pinpoint the location of abnormal metabolic activity within the body. The combined scans have been shown to provide more accurate diagnoses than the two scans performed separately.

ultrasounds.. information

Therapeutic uses

Ultrasound may be used to help physicians guide needles into the body.

In situations where an intravenous line is required but it is difficult to find a vein, ultrasound guidance may be used to identify larger veins in the neck, chest wall, or groin.

Ultrasound may be used to guide a needle into a cavity that needs to be drained (for example, an abscess) or a mass that needs to be biopsied, where a small bit of tissue is removed for analysis.

What are the risks of ultrasound?

There are no known risks to ultrasound, and as technology has improved, the machines have become smaller, portable and available for use at the patient's bedside.

How do patients prepare for an ultrasound?

Preparation for ultrasound is minimal. Generally, if internal organs such as the gallbladder are to be examined, patients are requested to avoid eating and drinking with the exception of water for six to eight hours prior to the examination. This is because food causes gallbladder contraction, minimizing the size, which would be visible during the ultrasound.

In preparation for examination of the baby and womb during pregnancy, it is recommended that mothers drink at least four to six glasses of water approximately one to two hours prior to the examination for the purpose of filling the bladder. The extra fluid in the bladder moves air-filled bowel loops away from the womb so that the baby and womb are more visible during the ultrasound test.

BIOMEDICAL ENGINEER SUMMER/SEMESTER TRAINING IN INDIA By KUSH TRIPATHI

I have come across a common inquiry in my blog that

• Where to do biomedical training?
• How to apply for biomedical training?
• Which institutes offer training to biomedical students in country?
• Is this training compulsory?
• Why should one do training?
• What is taught in training?

Taking it in reverse order first of all i would like to highlight

• What happens in training?

It is a learning process that involves the acquisition of knowledge, sharpening of skills, concepts, rules, or changing of attitudes and behaviours to enhance the performance of students.

Training is activity leading to skilled behavior.

• It’s not what you want in life, but it’s knowing how to reach it
• It’s not where you want to go, but it’s knowing how to get there
• It’s not how high you want to rise, but it’s knowing how to take off

• It may not be quite the outcome you were aiming for, but it will be an outcome
• It’s not what you dream of doing, but it’s having the knowledge to do it
• It’s not a set of goals, but it’s more like a vision
• It’s not the goal you set, but it’s what you need to achieve it

Training is about knowing where you stand (no matter how good or bad the current situation looks) at present, and where you will be after some point of time.

Training is about the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA) throughprofessional development

This was the meaning of training

SCENARIO OF SUMMER TRAINING IN INDIA

“Actually in INDIA at student’s level training is not taken seriously and people ought to unfair means of producing certificates from their links or resources”

And those who truly take training do following things

• if they are going for big brands of market then they are given table jobs,thus they have to just go to the company at time for some days after that you are given a certificate of longer duration so that they can produce it in college for(PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THEIR B.E/B.TECH).(35%% of students)
  
• Some students are worried about their future so they join some certification program from the big brands like NIIT technologies etc…;their they complete their courses on c/c++,java,dot net etc…,with the word that it will help them in getting a good future ,these institutes are also joined by those students who feel that they can’t do training at good companies because they don’t have any approach so lets pay n learn(45% students)
  
• It has given rise to a great market of training industries in india who offer paid training and certifications

There are only 5% students who get good training in companies and that too without any approach

so it becomes too difficult for an engineer to decide about training;And it becomes more difficult for those students who study in college which not supports them in getting training.

But all this can do good if you are doing engineering in core fields like electronics,computers,it,mechanical

But when you come across training for an biomedical engineering there are very few institutes helping in this way also.

• Why should an Biomedical engineer do summer training?

The answer to this question is that in whichever college you are doing biomedical engineering, there will be no good labs to help you,thus you will be practically ignorant about the things

AND also being an engineer means to be able to do practical work in the field related

engineering colleges cannot afford big machines just for the sake of practice of bunch of students in the branch so almost all college lack in their biomedical labs
(exceptions are always there)

But this very fact makes the training more necessary for biomedical engineers as theory cannot be understood well without doing practicals

you may learn all the facts given in the book but you can never practically apply them and innovate in those things

I think this is the reason why training is necessary in the engineering career

• Is this training compulsory?

Training is not compulsory everywhere but their are many universities which have made it mandatory which is good

• Which institutes offer training to biomedical students in country?

There are many institute who offer training in biomedical field i will highlight some of them here

1. Centre for biomedical engineering (IIT delhi & AIIMS joint venture)
2. Defence research development organisation (DRDO) IN DELHI mainly INMAS AND DIPAS
3. CARDEA LABS (COMPLETE BIOMEDICAL SOLUTION) only proffesional trainer for biomedical in delhi
4. LABVIEW TRAINING BY NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTORS
5. MICROCONTROLLER AND ITS APPLICATION TRAINING( MANY ARE THERE BUT TICO IS THE BEST ONE AT JANAKPURI,DELHI
6. MATLAB TRAINING IN NEW DELHI, NOIDA
7. SCIENTECH TECHNOLOGIES,INDORE
   
8. FORTIS HOSPITALS
9. APOLLO HOSPITAL
10. ESCORTS HOSPITAL

AND MANY MORE HOSPITALS IN DELHI ARE THERE BUT I AM NOT INCLUDING THEM AS THESE ARE THE BEST ONES

FOR OTHER CITIES I WILL BE UPDATING SOON DON’T WORRY!!!!!
