The past 10 years have seen the explosive expansion of the field of high-resolution imaging of the peripheral nervous system because of technical advances in sonography, allowing for good resolution, rapid imaging and (relatively) inexpensive images of the peripheral nervous structures. This timely volume presents the rapid advances and clinical relevance of high-resolution sonography for peripheral nerve diagnostics in a precise and clinically relevant way. The book begins by describing the characteristics of normal and diseased peripheral nerves, and then discusses the value of sonography in common conditions, with the help of clear and easy-to-understand illustrations to explain how to pr...
Materials Science for Future Applications: Emerging Development and Future Perspectives offers an overview of the materials used for progressive energy systems, such as solar cells, luminescent energy, sensors and detectors and energy storage devices. Today’s worldwide energy and materials production is going through important changes, which are developing novel prospects. These developments and innovative technologies are changing the way energy is manufactured, transported and spent. The materials emphasis in this book conveys a new perspective and highlights the many challenges that are often overlooked in other literature. An understanding of these challenges can be critical when working with new energy material technologies. Particular devotion is given to the key materials and their conversion productivity, extensive duration of permanency, materials expenses and energy materials sustainability. Materials Science for Future Applications offers a comprehensive introduction for students and researchers, in both academia and industry, who are interested in understanding the properties of emerging materials and their challenges.

The book is clearly structured, with the first part concentrating on structure and foldamer design concepts, while the second part covers functional aspects from properties to applications. The international team of expert authors provides overviews of synthetic approaches as well as analytical techniques.
In an ever-increasing domain of activity, Amino Acids, Peptides and Proteins provides an annual compilation of the world's research effort into this important area of biological chemistry. Comprising a comprehensive review of significant developments at this biology/chemistry interface, each volume opens with an overview of amino acids and their applications. Work on peptides is reviewed over several chapters, ranging from current trends in their synthesis and conformational and structural analysis, to peptidomimetics and the discovery of peptide-related molecules in nature. The application of advanced techniques in structural elucidation is incorporated into all chapters, whilst periodic chapters on metal complexes of amino acids, peptides and beta-lactams extend the scope of coverage. Efficient searching of specialist topics is facilitated by the sub-division of chapters into discrete subject areas, allowing annual trends to be monitored. All researchers in the pharmaceutical and allied industries, and at the biology/chemistry interface in academia will find this an indispensable reference source. Volume 36 covers literature published during 2003.
