Atlas of breast surgery
In recent years, there have been several important developments in the surgical management of breast diseases, such as new techniques for tumor resection, reconstructive surgery, lymph node assessment, and cosmetic surgery. Thus, perhaps more than in any other field, breast surgery has evolved into both a surgical science and an art. This atlas describes various surgical techniques for treating diseases of the breast, incorporating both the science and art of this unique field.
Assistive technologies, robotics, and automated machines in the health domain
The field of healthcare is constantly evolving and advancing with new technologies and innovations. Among these, assistive technologies, robotics, and automated machines are rapidly gaining ground as powerful tools to improve the quality of care and enhance patient outcomes. From wearable devices that monitor vital signs to surgical robots that assist in complex procedures, these technologies have the potential to revolutionize the way we deliver healthcare. The development and the integration of assistive technologies, care robots, and automated machines are strategic both as single components, when paired together, and when interconnected in the health domain.This reprint explores the latest developments in assistive technologies, robotics, and automated machines in the health domain, providing a comprehensive overview of their applications and potential impact. The reprint is for the benefit of healthcare professionals, researchers, engineers, and students interested in these rapidly evolving fields.
Artrite reumatoide e spondiloentesoartriti : Diagnostica per immagini e imaging follow-up = Rheumatoid Arthritis and Spondyloentesoarthritis : Follow-up imaging and imaging
Recent technological evolutions in diagnostic imaging have allowed him to grasp the anatomical and functional alterations that characterize the onset phase of degenerative and inflammatory arthropathies. In the context of the latter, in particular, imaging is not only fundamental in the diagnosis of the early stage of arthritis but also in defining their evolution and response to modern therapeutic treatment. The evaluation of a new imaging semeiology, which makes considerable use of the use of contrast medium in relation to both power Doppler and magnetic resonance imaging, has made it possible to narrow the gap between histology and imaging in rheumatological diagnostics.

Apical periodontitis in root-filled teeth : Endodontic retreatment and alternative approaches
A comprehensive guide to apical periodontitis in root-filled teeth that covers not only all aspects of diagnosis and management but also epidemiology, etiology, consequences, clinical decision-making, and prognosis. There is a particular focus on the available surgical and nonsurgical methods of retreatment designed to restore healthy periapical conditions.
Aortic valve disease
Your heart has four valves to keep blood flowing in the direction. These valves include the mitral valve, tricuspid valve, pulmonary valve and aortic valve. Each valve has flaps (epiphysis or leaflets) that opens and close once during each heartbeat sometimes the valve do not open or close completely; this interferes with the flow of blood inside the heart, and may lead to impaired ability to pump blood to your body. In aortic valve disease, the aortic valve between the lower left chamber (left ventricle) and the primary artery that delivers blood from the heart to the body (the aorta) does not work completely. It may not close completely; This causes blood to leak back into the left ventricle (regurgitation), or possibly narrowing of the valve (stenosis).
