Wrist arthroscopy
Artroskopija ručnog zgloba je minimalno invazivna endoskopska metoda koja omogućuje
dijagnosticiranje i liječenje pojedinih bolesti i ozljeda ručnog zgloba (RZ), mediokarpalnog
zgloba (MKZ) i distalnog radioulnarnog zgloba (DRUZ). Ovu minimalno invazivnu kiruršku metodu
prvi je opisao Yung-Cheng Chen 1979., no njezina šira primjena u kliničkoj praksi počinje
tek nakon 1986., kada je Terry Lane Whipple preporučio distrakciju RZ-a i precizne lokalizacije
ulaznih mjesta (portala), kako bi se učinila pravilna i potpuna evaluacija RZ-a prilikom izvođenja
artroskopije. Iako je prvotno artroskopija RZ-a bila samo dijagnostička metoda, tijekom
vremena, zahvaljujući kontinuiranom napretku tehnologije i uvođenju inovacija u instrumentaciji
i operativnoj tehnici, artroskopija RZ-a postaje i terapeutska metoda. Cilj ovog rada prikazati
je osnove o artroskopiji RZ-a, a one uključuju: povijesni razvoj, indikacije i kontraindikacije,
evaluaciju i probir bolesnika za artroskopiju RZ-a na temelju anamneze, fizikalnog pregleda i
slikovne obrade, pripremu za artroskopiju RZ-a, potrebnu opremu, poznavanje izvanzglobne
anatomije, portale (ulazna mjesta), poznavanje unutarzglobne anatomije, preduvjete, tehniku
artroskopije RZ-a, prednosti i nedostatke ove operativne metode, komplikacije i zaključak.Wrist arthroscopy is minimally invasive endoscopic procedure which enables the diagnosis
and treatment of certain diseases and injuries of the wrist joint (WJ), midcarpal joints
(MCJs) and distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). This minimally invasive surgical procedure was first
described by Yung-Cheng Chen in 1979. However, its widespread application in clinical practice
began after 1986, when Terry Lane Whipple recommended wrist distraction and precise
localization of portals to do proper and complete evaluation of the wrist when performing arthroscopy.
Although initially wrist arthroscopy was only a diagnostic tool, during time due to
the continuous advancement of technology and the introduction of innovations in instrumentation
and surgical technique, wrist arthroscopy became a therapeutic method. The aim of
this professional paper is to present the basics of wrist arthroscopy, which include: historical
development, indications and contraindications, evaluation and selection of patients for wrist
arthroscopy on the basis of history, physical examination and diagnostic imaging procedures,
wrist arthroscopy setup, the necessary equipment, superficial anatomy, portals, intraarticular
anatomy, preconditions, technique of wrist arthroscopy, the advantages and disadvantages of
this surgical procedure, complications, and conclusion

Structural Investigation of Zno:Fe Doped System
Nanosized powder of ZnO doped with 5 at% of Fe was prepared and characterized by X ray diffractometry, while local atomic arrangements around different absorbing atoms was characterized by EXAFS measurements. Also, existence of significant magnetic moments of absorbant atoms was investigated using XMCD technique, while overall magnetic properties were sampled by magnetometric measurements. To get better insight in mechanisms behind such a subtle effect, ab initio calculations of electronic structure of dopped system has also been performed. Although, calculations predict small magnetic moments on Fe and to small extent on neighbouring atoms, XMCD and magnetic measurements reveal no sign of magnetic ordering in this compound, proving once more the decisive role of preparation technique in obtaining the desired effect.Radiation Interaction wtih Material and Its Use in Technologies, 4th International Conference on Radiation Interaction with Material and Its Use in Technologies, May 14-17, 2012, Kaunas, Lithuani
Changes of hydrogen storage properties of MgH2 induced by boron ion irradiation
MgH2 powder samples have been irradiated with 45 key B3+ ions with different ion fluencies ranging from 10(12) to 10(16) ions/cm(2). Irradiation effects have been estimated by SRIM calculations. To characterize induced modifications and its influence on the hydrogen desorption behavior of MgH2, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, particle size analysis and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) have been used. Changes of TPD spectra with irradiation conditions suggest that there are several mechanisms involved in desorption process which depend on defect concentration and their interaction and ordering. It has been demonstrated that the changes in near-surface area play the crucial role in hydrogen desorption kinetics. The results also confirm that there is possibility to control the thermodynamic parameters by controlling vacancies concentration in the systems. (C) 2010 Professor T. Nejat Veziroglu.
