    IS-1594IS- [XXXX] Nasjonalt handlingsprogrammedretningslinjerfordiagnostikk, behandling ogoppfølgingavprostatakreft UTKAST 2 Forord Mange medisinske faggrupper har i en årrekke lagt ned et betydelig arbeid for å komme frem til konsensusbaserte faglige anbefalinger for diagnostikk og behandling av ulike typer kreft. Faggruppenes anbefalinger har til nå manglet offisiell status, men har likevel dannet grunnstammen for tilbudet ved sykehusene. Som ledd i Nasjonal strategi for kreftområdet (2006-2009) fikk Helsedirektoratet i oppdrag å videreutvikle og oppdatere faggruppenes anbefalinger til nasjonale handlingsprogrammer for kreftbehandling, i nært samarbeid med fagmiljøene, de regionale helseforetakene, Nasjonalt kunnskapssenter for helsetjenesten, og andre relevante myndigheter. På denne måten vil de nye handlingsprogrammene fra Helsedirektoratet representere en videreføring og en formalisering av faggruppenes anbefalinger. Som ledd i videreutviklingen er det også utarbeidet et forslag til organisering av kontinuerlig oppdatering av handlingsprogrammene, herunder tidlig varsling av ny teknologi og metoder. Nasjonale handlingsprogrammer for kreftbehandling skal bidra til at det offentlige tilbudet i kreftomsorgen blir av god kvalitet og likeverdig over hele landet. Disse Nasjonale retningslinjene for diagnostikk, behandling og oppfølging av prostatakreft er en del av Nasjonalt handlingsprogram for prostatakreft. Målgrupper for retningslinjene er spesialister innen medisin, kirurgi, onkologi, radiologi og patologi. De vil også være av interesse

By way of catching up, we have produced a Summer double issue and have the good fortune to be able to publish with a color cover. Coinciding with the Santa Barbara relocation is the appointment, by the Board of Directors, of the first members of the HDS USA Advisory Board. This distinguished group of senior diving professionals, with extensive backgrounds in diving medicine, technical development, commercial, military and sports diving, bring in excess of 300 years of diving experience to the Society. Most of their biographies are the size of town phone directories, and have had to be severely edited for publication. We are honored and gratefulfortheir willing offers of service, and hope that we have done their biographies justice. Details start on page 4. The recently introduced, Founding Benefactor class of membership has proven to be very popular with over half of the thirty available memberships already taken. An opportunity still exists to acquire one of these unique memberships and details of it's benefits are noted on page 9. On the international front, the ongoing formation of the HDS USA as a nonprofit corporation has, by law, changed the conditions that govern our relationship with the HDS in UK.

  • 120 Introduction Sampling Devices
    San Diego’s Marine Technology Industry By Brock J. Rosenthal Sampling Devices The study of the oceans started as a descriptive science describing and cataloging biological and geological specimens. Many clever mechanical collecting devices were devised to remotely retrieve samples. Initially, by necessity, all were built by the scientists who used them. One of the earliest companies in the U.S. to make sampling equipment for marine scientists was Kahl Scientific Company, sometimes known as Kahlsico. Started in New York City, by Joseph Kahl in 1935, Kahl Scientific began making metrological equipment; they soon catered to requests from customers for field equipment such as water and seafloor samplers. In the aftermath of World War II, Kahl participated Introduction in Operation Paperclip – an Office of Strategic Services n the early days of oceanography scientists largely (OSS) program that recruited scientists from Nazi made their own equipment.

For this reason, over time, restoration programs have been put in place through transplantation activities, with different success. These actions have also been conducted with other Mediterranean marine seagrasses. The results of numerous transplanting operations conducted in the Northern Adriatic Sea and lagoons with Cymodocea nodosa, Zostera marina and Z. noltei and in the Central and Southern Adriatic Sea with P. oceanica (only within the project Interreg SASPAS), are herein presented and compared, taking also into account the presence of extensive meadows of C. nodosa, Z. marina and Z. noltei, along the North Adriatic coasts and lagoons.

Currently little is known about the geological processes and ecosystems of the deep ocean. The Deepsea Challenger is equipped with a plethora of instrumentation to collect scientific data and samples. The development of the Deepsea Challenger has sparked a renewed interest in manned exploration of the deep ocean. Due to the immense pressure at full ocean depth, a variety of advanced systems and materials are used on Cameron's dive craft. This paper provides an overview of the many novel features of the Deepsea Challenger as well as related features of past vehicles that have reached the Challenger Deep.

  • Seismological Monitoring of the World's First
    Appendix A Seismological Monitoring of the World’s First Nuclear Detonation— The Trinity Shot of 16 July 19451 Seismology played a modest role in the Trinity test, thereby establishing, at the very birth of the “atomic age,” a mutual interaction between seismology and nuclear testing that would become of increasing significance to both technologies as the century pro- gressed. Because the Trinity “gadget” was designed to be an atmospherically detonated military weapon for which principal damage effects were expected to be air blast and accompanying ground shock of intensities heretofore unexplored, extensive new effects data were needed to plan military applications. When the need for a full-scale test of the implosion design became clear by late 1944, Los Alamos scientists began to devise field experiments to measure both air blast and ground shock.Also, they wanted to esti- mate how each would scale with explosive energy release (yield), range, and height of burst within a principal target area (nominally, within about 20 km of ground zero). In March 1945, Herbert M. Houghton, an exploration geophysicist with Geophys- ical Research Corporation (GRC) and Tidewater Oil, was recruited to work with Los Alamos physicist, James Coon, to perfect earth shock instrumentation for the 100-ton TNT calibration rehearsal shot of 7 May 1945, as well as the unique multikiloton Trin- ity nuclear event planned for July. Houghton and Coon modified a dozen GRC Type SG-3 geophones to record both vertical and horizontal-radial components of strong ground motion at ranges between 0.75 and 8.2 km from both the calibration and nuclear shots, which were air bursts suspended on towers.
