This chapter considers the Schrödinger operator −Δ‎ + q with q complex. In this case the operator is not self-adjoint and so the analysis of Chapter XI does not apply. It is the distribution of the singular values that is now considered, the technique used being again the localization to cubes forming a covering of Ω‎, together with the Max–Min Principle. Some results are obtained concerning the sequence class lp to which the singular numbers and eigenvalues belong.

Résumé :

After its implementation in 1980, shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) became the first-line treatment for more than 80% of patients with urolithiasis. During the last three decades, SWL technology has advanced rapidly in terms of shock wave generation, focusing, patient coupling, and stone localization. Indications for SWL have evolved as well. Although endoscopic treatment techniques continue to improve, SWL continues to be considered first-line therapy for the treatment of many urinary stones. This chapter reviews the fundamental principles of SWL and presents advances in lithotripsy technology such as shock wave generation and focusing, advances in stone localization (imaging), different energy source concepts, and coupling modalities. Our understanding of the pathophysiology and the physics of shock waves can enhance extracorporeal SWL efficacy while limiting complications. Finally, current indications for and contraindications to SWL depending on stone location and in context of the updated AUA/EAU Guidelines are discussed.

Résumé :

The application of nuclear medicine techniques in the diagnosis and management of rheumatological conditions relies on its ability to detect physiological and pathological changes in vivo, usually at an earlier stage compared to structural changes visualized on conventional imaging. These techniques are based on the in-vivo administration of a gamma-emitting radionuclide whose distribution can be monitored externally using a gamma camera. To guide a radionuclide to the area of interest, it is usually bound to a chemical label to form a 'radiopharmaceutical'. There are hundreds of radiopharmaceuticals in clinical use with different 'homing' mechanisms, such as 99 mTc HDP for bone scan and 99 mTc MAA for lung scan. Comparing pre- and posttherapy scans can aid in monitoring response to treatment. More recently, positron emission tomography combined with simultaneous computed tomography (PET/CT) has been introduced into clinical practice. This technique provides superb spatial resolution and anatomical localization compared to gamma-camera imaging. The most widely used PET radiopharmaceutical, flurodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), is a fluorinated glucose analogue, which can detect hypermetabolism and has therefore been used in imaging and monitoring response to treatment of a variety of cancers as well as inflammatory conditions such as vasculitis, myopathy, and arthritides. Other PET radiopharmaceuticals targeting inflammation and activated macrophages are becoming available and could open new frontiers in PET imaging in rheumatology. Nuclear medicine procedures can also be used therapeutically. Beta-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, such as yttrium-90, invoke localized tissue damage at the site of injection and can be used in the treatment of synovitis.

Résumé :

Venous sampling is critically important in the diagnosis and localization of pituitary, parathyroid, renal, adrenal, and ovarian endocrine tumors and conditions. Catheterization of smaller veins can present a challenge and may be responsible for technical failures, particularly with adrenal vein, parathyroid, and inferior petrosal sinus venous sampling. Beyond the inherent challenges of catheterization posed by small veins, obtaining adequate blood samples can be difficult because the return of blood from a small vein may be exceedingly slow. This chapter discusses techniques to enhance the return of venous blood flow from a diagnostic catheter in a small vein. These techniques are applicable to all venous sampling, but they are particularly beneficial when sampling small-caliber veins.

Résumé :

Cardiac masses are abnormal structures within or immediately adjacent to the heart. They have to be distinguished from variants of normal cardiac structures, postoperative changes, and ultrasound artefacts. These abnormal masses may be localized in the left or right heart cavities, with different clinical manifestations according to their localization. Among the abnormal cardiac masses (thrombus, vegetations, tumours), tumours are not discussed in this chapter. Echocardiography is the main but not the only imaging technique for the evaluation of cardiac masses, and is largely available. Hence, it is indicated in patients with a systemic embolic event, searching for a cardiac source embolism. When transthoracic echocardiography is negative, transoesophageal echocardiography is indicated, in cryptogenic ischaemic events (no cause found). Right heart masses are mainly responsible for pulmonary embolisms, but may be the cause of a systemic embolus, via the atrial septum. Right heart thrombi rarely form in situ, and are hence more often venous thrombi entrapped in the right heart on their way to the pulmonary arteries. Echocardiography is mandatory in the setting of pulmonary embolism.

Résumé :

Neuroimaging is essential for clinical care and basic research in epilepsy. MRI is the primary tool, but adjunctive techniques are commonly employed including MRS, PET, SPECT, and MEG. These techniques facilitate localization and characterization of seizure foci prior to epilepsy surgery, and also allow preoperative assessment of risk to eloquent brain regions. Evaluation of patients with MRI-negative epilepsy remains a major clinical challenge and motivation for contemporary research.

Résumé :

This resource offers comprehensive instruction on the diagnosis and treatment of all varieties of eye movement disorders, and reflects the importance of correlating clinical signs of disorders in the oculomotor system with their neuroanatomic and neurophysiologic architecture. With its focus on signs and symptoms, it advances lesion localization of eye movement disorders as the central clinical concern, and presents a fresh review of bedside examination techniques in the ER, ICU, and walk-in clinic; productive ways of taking a clinical history; sign interpretation; source lesion localization; and, where appropriate, therapy. This resource is arranged according to objective signs - like ptosis, neuromuscular syndromes, dizziness, vertigo, and syndromes of the medulla - rather than disease entities, and features over 50 clinical cases, each one providing the anatomical guidance needed to make critical diagnostic and management decisions in patients who often present with abnormal eye movements.

Résumé :

Neuromodulation therapies are now common treatments for a variety of medically refractory disorders, including movement disorders and epilepsy. While surgical techniques for each disorder vary, electricity is used by both for relieving symptoms. During stereotactic placement of the stimulating electrode, either deep brain stimulation electrodes or cortical strip electrodes, intraoperative neurophysiology is used to localize the target structure. This physiology includes single-unit recordings, neurostimulation evoked response evaluation, and intracranial electroencephalography (EEG) to ensure the electrode leads are in the optimal location. Because the functional target for the responsive neurostimulator is more easily visualized on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging, intraoperative physiology is used more as a confirmatory tool, in contrast to the more functional localization-based use during electrode placement for movement disorders. This chapter discusses surgical placement of the electrodes for each procedure and the physiological guidance methodology used to place the leads in the optimal location.

Résumé :

Noninvasive imaging and electrophysiological techniques have been developed to probe specific aspects of brain function and dysfunction, providing exquisite spatial maps of functional centers and temporal characteristics. The evolution of these techniques has advanced from single-modality methods identifying functional localization, specialization and segregation, through real-time measures of neuronal activity, toward multimodality integration of structural, functional, and spectro-temporal approaches. While these have an immediate impact in conditions where physical brain lesions are evident (e.g., brain tumor and stroke), making a commensurate contribution within neuropsychiatry is more complex. Nonetheless, by combining concepts of morphology, neurochemistry, neural signal propagation, and regional connectivity, there appears to be ample opportunity to contribute not only to the diagnosis of patients with mental illness but to the stratification and subtyping across behavioral phenotypes and, ultimately, to patient management. Here we present an overview of the most common noninvasive neuroimaging methodologies and their applications to pediatric neurodevelopmental disorders.

Résumé :

Regional anaesthesia is now extremely safe in experienced hands. The vast majority of upper and lower limb procedures can now be performed with either a peripheral regional block alone or in combination with a general anaesthetic. Neuraxial blocks can provide reliable postoperative pain relief for operations on the trunk and lower limbs. There is no consensus on the maximum safe dose of local anaesthetics. It is important therefore to use a minimum optimal dose of a local anaesthetic for any nerve block to reduce the risk of toxicity and to improve the success rate. Adjuncts, such as clonidine and dexamethasone, can prolong the duration of the block. Advances in nerve localization methods and block needles have further improved the safety of nerve blocks. There is increasing evidence to show that ultrasound is superior to peripheral nerve stimulation for identifying nerves. Ultrasound also helps in real-time visualization of the spread of the local anaesthetic. Consent, sedation, and support from non-anaesthetic staff play a key role in the success of regional anaesthesia, especially in awake patients. Although serious complications from nerve blocks are uncommon, direct nerve injury is perhaps the most serious complication. Fortunately, these symptoms in the overwhelming majority resolve within a year. This chapter covers the history, factors affecting local anaesthetics, role of adjuncts, nerve localization techniques, and complications of regional anaesthesia. Finally, some suggestions to improve the success and safety of peripheral nerve blocks are discussed.

Résumé :

Fungi have been long used as model organisms to investigate genetic and cellular processes. An overview is provided of how fungi function at a genetic level, including ploidy, gene structure, and gene flow by sexual and asexual processes. The tools used to study fungal genetics are then described, such techniques having widespread applications in medical mycology research. Classical genetic analysis includes the use of gene mapping by sexual crossing and tetrad analysis, and forward genetic experimentation based on mutagenesis, for which various mutant screening approaches are described. Molecular genetic analysis includes gene manipulation by transformation; different methods for gene knockout and targeting, and their application for forward and reverse genetic approaches, are outlined. Finally, molecular genetic methods used to study gene expression and function are reviewed, including use of inducible or constitutive overexpression, real-time PCR, cellular localization of gene products by fluorescent tagging, and detection of protein–protein interactions.

Résumé :

This chapter explores the genetic epidemiology of cancer: the identification and quantification of inherited genetic factors, and their potential interaction with the environment, in the etiology of cancer in human populations. It also describes the techniques used to identify genetic variants that contribute to cancer susceptibility. It describes the older research methods for identifying the chromosomal localization of high-risk predisposing genes, such as linkage analysis within pedigrees and allele-sharing methods, as it is important to understand the foundations of the field. It also reviews the epidemiologic study designs that can be helpful in identifying low-risk alleles in candidate gene and genome-wide association studies, as well as gene–environment interactions. Finally, it describes some of the genotyping and sequencing platforms commonly employed for high-throughput genome analysis, and the concept of Mendelian randomization and how it may be useful in the study of biomarkers and environmental causes of cancer.

Résumé :

Lower limb nerve blocks gained popularity with the introduction of better nerve localization techniques such as peripheral nerve stimulation and ultrasound. A combination of lower limb peripheral nerve blocks can provide anaesthesia and analgesia of the entire lower limb. Lower limb blocks, as compared to central neuraxial blocks, do not affect blood pressure, can be used in sick patients, provide longer-lasting analgesia, avoid the risk of epidural haematoma or urinary retention, provide better patient satisfaction, and have acceptable success rates in experienced hands. Detailed knowledge of the relevant anatomy is essential before performing any nerve blocks in the lower limb as the nerve plexuses and the peripheral nerves are deep and obscured by bony structures and large muscles. The lumbosacral plexus provides sensory and motor innervation to the superficial tissues, muscles, and bones of the lower limb. This chapter covers different approaches and techniques for lower limb blocks, that is, the lumbar plexus, femoral nerve, fascia iliaca, saphenous nerve, sciatic nerve, popliteal nerve, ankle block, forefoot block, and the intra-articular infusion of local anaesthetics. Both peripheral nerve stimulator- and ultrasound-guided approaches are discussed. The use of ultrasound guidance is suggested as it helps in reducing the dose of local anaesthetic required and can ensure circumferential spread of local anaesthetic around peripheral nerves, which hastens the onset of block and improves success rate.

Résumé :

Dyspnoea is prevalent among palliative care patients with increased severity over time. There are two patterns of dyspnoea-breakthrough dyspnoea and constant dyspnoea-and three separate qualities of dyspnoea-air hunger, work or effort, and tightness. The measurement of dyspnoea includes three domains: sensory-perceptual experience, affective distress, and symptom impact. The management of dyspnoea includes specific disease management, non-pharmacological intervention, pharmacological treatment, and palliative non-invasive ventilation. Cough is prevalent and disturbing in patients with cancer and chronic lung diseases, and is often associated with airway hypersecretion and impaired mucociliary clearance. Management includes specific treatments for underlying non-cancer and cancer-related causes, symptomatic treatment by antitussives, mucoactive agents, and airway clearance techniques for expectoration and reduction in mucus production. Anticholinergics may be indicated for death rattles to facilitate a peaceful death. Haemoptysis occurs in 30-60% of lung cancer patients and initial management of haemoptysis includes airway protection and volume resuscitation. Localization of the site and source of bleeding may determine the choice of treatment. If a life-threatening haemoptysis occurs, sedation should be given as soon as possible. Support should be given to the family, and debriefing provided to team members.
