Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

4.9K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Structural Classification of Joints01:20

Structural Classification of Joints

3.8K
Joints, also known as articulations, are classified based on their structural characteristics, i.e., based on whether the articulating surfaces of the adjacent bones are directly connected by fibrous connective tissue or cartilage, or whether the articulating surfaces contact each other within a fluid-filled joint cavity. These differences serve to divide the joints of the body into three structural classifications.
A fibrous joint is where the adjacent bones are united by fibrous connective...

Residuals and Least-Squares Property01:11

Residuals and Least-Squares Property

7.8K
The vertical distance between the actual value of y and the estimated value of y. In other words, it measures the vertical distance between the actual data point and the predicted point on the line
If the observed data point lies above the line, the residual is positive, and the line underestimates the actual data value for y. If the observed data point lies below the line, the residual is negative, and the line overestimates the actual data value for y.
The process of fitting the best-fit...

Introduction to Nonparametric Statistics01:28

Introduction to Nonparametric Statistics

837
Nonparametric statistics offer a powerful alternative to traditional parametric methods, useful when assumptions about the population distribution cannot be made. Unlike parametric tests, which require data to follow a specific distribution with well-defined parameters (such as the mean and standard deviation), nonparametric tests do not require such constraints. This makes them particularly valuable when dealing with small sample sizes, skewed data, or ordinal and categorical variables.

One-Compartment Open Model: Wagner-Nelson and Loo Riegelman Method for ka Estimation

667
This lesson introduces two critical methods in pharmacokinetics, the Wagner-Nelson and Loo-Riegelman methods, used for estimating the absorption rate constant (ka) for drugs administered via non-intravenous routes. The Wagner-Nelson method relates ka to the plasma concentration derived from the slope of a semilog percent unabsorbed time plot. However, it is limited to drugs with one-compartment kinetics and can be impacted by factors like gastrointestinal motility or enzymatic degradation.
