This is not possible with the fibre-insulated furnaces for oxide ceramics, as the process depends on the material, geometry, and load (Table 1). Carbolite Gero presents in the following the aspects of its - product line, named after the ancient Greek word for ceramic = K K (Keramos) for sintering and debinding of oxide and non-oxide ceramics. Oxide ceramics, on the other hand, are mostly both debinded and sintered in air inside a fibre-insulated furnace with internal heating elements (Figure 1). [Extracted from the article]

To find out whether calcium scoring of the coronary arteries (CAC scoring) could be carried out with a CT angiography of the coronary arteries (CTCA) in a single CT data acquisition. The Agatston and V130 scores for 113 patients were assessed. A calcium volume score (V600 score) was compiled from the CTCA data sets. Intra- and interobserver correlations were excellent (rho > 0.97). The intra- and interobserver repeatability coefficients were extremely low, increasing in magnitude from the V600 score to the V130 and Agatston scores. The V600 score underestimates the coronary calcium burden. However, it has a linear relation to the Agatston and V130 scores. Thus, they are predictable from the values of the V600 score. The V600 score shows a linear relation to the classic CAC scores. Due to its extremely high reliability, the score may be a feasible alternative for classic CAC scoring methods in order to reduce radiation dosages. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Swallowed foreign bodies are relatively common problem. The first reports date back about 3000 years. The first medical report was done by Mestivier in 1759. Several studies show that up to 90% of the foreign bodies (FBs) pass spontaneously and 10% to 20% require an endoscopic removal. Surgical intervention is only indicated in approximately 1% of the cases. Surgical intervention is only necessary, for example, when large or sharp FBs are involved because of the potential risk of perforation and obstruction. The surgical therapy can be carried out by means of laparotomy or laparoscopy; laparoscopy has to be given the first priority whenever possible. The advantages of a laparascopic procedure are well-known: reduced postoperative pain, better lung function, less postoperative bowel obstruction, shorter hospital stay, and faster reconvalescence. We report an unusual case of an unintentional ingested fork, which required a laparoscopic extraction using three trocars. The 20-year-old female patient was then subsequently diagnosed with bulimia nervosa for the first time during her hospital stay. The patient was discharged home on the fourth postoperative day after an unremarkable course. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
