Pression de rayonnementLa pression de rayonnement ou pression radiative est la pression mécanique exercée sur une surface quelconque par l'échange de moment entre l'objet et le champ électromagnétique. Cela comprend l'impulsion de la lumière ou du rayonnement électromagnétique de toute longueur d'onde qui est absorbée, réfléchie ou émise d'une autre manière (par exemple, le rayonnement du corps noir) par la matière à toute échelle (des objets macroscopiques aux particules de poussière en passant par les molécules de gaz).
Medical laboratory scientistA medical laboratory scientist (MLS) or clinical laboratory scientist (CLS) or medical technologist (MT) performs diagnostic testing of blood and body fluids in clinical laboratories. The scope of a medical laboratory scientist's work begins with the receipt of patient or client specimens and terminates with the delivery of test results to physicians and other healthcare providers. The utility of clinical diagnostic testing relies squarely on the validity of test methodology.
Medical procedureA medical procedure is a course of action intended to achieve a result in the delivery of healthcare. A medical procedure with the intention of determining, measuring, or diagnosing a patient condition or parameter is also called a medical test. Other common kinds of procedures are therapeutic (i.e., intended to treat, cure, or restore function or structure), such as surgical and physical rehabilitation procedures. "An activity directed at or performed on an individual with the object of improving health, treating disease or injury, or making a diagnosis.
Lithiase urinaireLa lithiase urinaire (du grec lithos, pierre) est une maladie caractérisée par la formation de calculs (du latin calculus, caillou), c’est-à-dire des accrétions cristallines qui se forment, à partir de minéraux dissous dans l'urine, dans les voies urinaires : cavités rénales (calices et bassinet), uretères et vessie. La taille des calculs varie d'un grain de sable à celle d'une balle de golf. Les plus gros, dits « coralliformes », moulent l'intérieur du rein, ayant ainsi l'aspect de branches de corail.
Single-phase generatorSingle-phase generator (also known as single-phase alternator) is an alternating current electrical generator that produces a single, continuously alternating voltage. Single-phase generators can be used to generate power in single-phase electric power systems. However, polyphase generators are generally used to deliver power in three-phase distribution system and the current is converted to single-phase near the single-phase loads instead.
Expressive therapiesThe expressive therapies are the use of the creative arts as a form of therapy, including the distinct disciplines expressive arts therapy and the creative arts therapies (art therapy, dance/movement therapy, drama therapy, music therapy, writing therapy, poetry therapy, and psychodrama). The expressive therapies are based on the assumption that people can heal through the various forms of creative expression. Expressive therapists share the belief that through creative expression and the tapping of the imagination, people can examine their body, feelings, emotions, and thought process.
Dossier médicalLe est un ensemble de documents (physiques ou informatisés) qui retrace des épisodes ayant affecté la santé de cette personne : lettres, notes, compte rendu, résultats de laboratoire, film radiologique Dossier médical en droit français En droit français, le dossier médical doit être soigneusement conservé, pour la continuité des soins (le dossier médical doit donc pouvoir être transmis au successeur du médecin de famille, ou suivant le patient), pour répondre aux futures demandes d'accès des patients, voire
Medical licenseA medical license is an occupational license that permits a person to legally practice medicine. In most countries, a person must have a medical license bestowed either by a specified government-approved professional association or a government agency before they can practice medicine. Licenses are not granted automatically to all people with medical degrees. A medical school graduate must receive a license to practice medicine to legally be called a physician. The process typically requires testing by a medical board.
LithotomieLa lithotomie (du grec λίθος lithos, pierre et -τομία -tomia « coupe, césure », de τέμνω témnō « couper » d'où « taille de la pierre ») est un terme médical décrivant une ancienne intervention chirurgicale où l'on coupait ou broyait la pierre dans la vessie (calcul de vessie, lithiase vésicale) au moyen du lithotome (sorte de pince ou broyeur). Du point de vue moderne, c'est une lithotritie. On appelle « opération de la taille » une opération encore plus ancienne qui consiste à inciser la chair et la vessie pour extraire la pierre.
CystinuriaCystinuria is an inherited autosomal recessive disease characterized by high concentrations of the amino acid cystine in the urine, leading to the formation of cystine stones in the kidneys, ureters, and bladder. It is a type of aminoaciduria. "Cystine", not "cysteine," is implicated in this disease; the former is a dimer of the latter. Cystinuria is a cause of recurrent kidney stones. It is a disease involving the defective transepithelial transport of cystine and dibasic amino acids in the kidney and intestine, and is one of many causes of kidney stones.
