    Single incision laparoscopic bariatric surgery: challenging the conventional

    Get PDF
    Sleeve gastrectomy has gained popularity over the years and is commonly performed laparoscopically through multiple small incisions. The arrival of single incision laparoscopic surgery has been a game changer, allowing for sleeve gastrectomy to be performed through a cosmetically more appeasing scar with improved patient satisfaction. In this article, we describe the history, technical challenges, proposed solutions to some of the hurdles faced during single-incision laparoscopic bariatric surgery and highlight our method of performing single incision laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy purely through a single access device

    MIMO Systems: Principles, Iterative Techniques, and advanced Polarization

    No full text
    International audienceThis chapter considers the principles of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems as well as some recent accomplishments concerning their implementation. By employing multiple antennas at both transmitter and receiver, very high data rates can be achieved under the condition of deployment in a rich-scattering propagation medium. This interesting property of MIMO systems suggests their use in the future high-rate and high-quality wireless communication systems. Several concepts in MIMO systems are reviewed in this chapter. We first consider MIMO channel models and recall the basic principles of MIMO structures and channel modeling. We next study the MIMO channel capacity and present the early developments in these systems concerning the information theory aspect. Iterative signal detection is considered next; it considers iterative techniques for space-time decoding. As the capacity is inversely proportional to the spatial channel correlation, MIMO antennas should be sufficiently separated, usually by several wavelengths. In order to minimize antennas' deployment, we present advanced polarization diversity techniques for MIMO systems and explain how they can help to reduce the spatial correlation in order to achieve high transmission rates. We end the chapter by considering the application of MIMO systems in local area networks, as well as their potential in enhancing range, localization, and power efficiency of sensor networks

    An ultrasensitive CMOS magnetic biosensor array with correlated double counting noise suppression

    This paper presents a scalable and ultrasensitive frequency-shift magnetic biosensing array scheme. The theoretical limit of the sensor noise floor is shown to be dominated by the phase noise of the sensing oscillators. To increase the sensitivity, a noise suppression technique, Correlated Double Counting (CDC), is proposed with no power overhead. As an implementation example, a 64-cell sensor array is designed in a standard 65nm CMOS process. The CDC scheme achieves an additional 6dB noise suppression. The magnetic sensing capability of the presented sensor is verified by detecting micron size magnetic particles with an SNR of 14.6dB for a single bead and an effective dynamic range of at least 74.5dB
