edelman ultrasound: Ultrasound in Synthesis Steven V. Ley, Caroline M.R. Low, 2012-12-06 The effects of heat and light on chemical reactions have long been known and un derstood. Ultrasound has been known to promote chemical reactions for the past 60 years, but despite this, it did not attract the attention of synthetic chemists until recently. This arose historically from early studies which concentrated almost exclu sively on reactions in aqueous media and was also, in some measure, due to the availability of suitable technology. Since the early 1980s a plethora of literature has appeared of direct interest to synthetic chemists and the field has been developing rapidly. The aim of this book is to bring the background of this fascinating field to the atten tion of a wider audience. It explores the literature to date and attempts to indicate other areas in which ultrasound may be exploited. It also hopes to explode some of the myths surrounding this area which have hitherto been regarded by the synthetic community as a bit of a black art! Existing books and reviews have tended to concentrate on the physics of sonochem istry and to catalogue the instances in which ultrasound has proved useful in tack ling synthetic problems. Our aim has been to stress the relevance of this technique to synthetic chemists and we have included a section which deals with the practical aspects of carrying out these reactions. |

edelman ultrasound: Duplex and Color Doppler Imaging of the Venous System Gerhard H. Mostbeck, 2012-12-06 The human venous system has, in the past, not alwaysattracted the same attention and interest from radiologists as the arterial system. Nevertheless, some of the pathologic conditions of the venous system are either frequently seen in daily practice such as varicosis of the lower extremity, or may relate to more severe and even life-threatening conditions,for instance deep venous thrombosis or liver venous pathology. However,enormous progress has been achieved during the past decade in the field of duplex and color Doppler imaging necessitating an update in our knowledge of these techniques. For both reasons, a volume specifically dealing with duplex and color Doppler ima ging of the venous system was considered an appropriate addition to the series Medical Radiology - Diagnostic Imaging. I would like to thank Prof. Mostbeck for his outstanding performance as the editor of this work. I would like to congratulate him and the many contributing authors, all renowned experts in the field, on their comprehensive coverage of the different topics, the up-to-date contents and the superb illustrations. I stronglybelievethat this bookwill encounter the same success as previous volumes published in this series. |
