Diagnostic cardiac catheterization.
There is something extraordinarily attractive with the concept of using a thin tube to get access into blood vessels. Then using that access to insert different "wires" with various tips, each tailored for a specific function. Besides just measuring, for example, pressures and oxygen levels in something like the four chambers of the hear, cath procedures can be used to close holes in the heart, to widen narrow vessels, and to freeze or burn cells.
If you really take a moment to think about that: The process of putting a tube thick enough to pull a wire through the maze of vessels, and then manipulating that wire to do different tasks. You would appreciate how ingenious it is.

Large spawning groups of black drum (Pogonias chromis), called aggregations, produce characteristic sounds as part of their spawning behavior, usually beginning in January and lasting through early spring.
Passive acoustics, a noninvasive method of learning about fish by studying their sounds, allows researchers to gain knowledge about fish behavior without having to disrupt their activities or sacrifice fish. For an example of how this technique is used by researchers at FWC's Fish and Wildlife Research Institute, view the article "Mapping Spawning Habitat of Spotted Seatrout (Cynoscion nebulosus) in Tampa Bay."

Looking, believe it or not, at an outcrop of Silurian-period Shawangunk Formation conglomerate, in the same locale as Part 4 of this set. This is an area of highly jointed bedrock and joint-controlled drainage southwest of Eagle Cliff, Mohonk Lake, and Mohonk Mountain House.
To see what the conglomerate looks like when not covered with either flora or a weathering crust, see Part 3. It's actually one of the most beautiful rock types I've come across.
The technical term biofilm seems to be used most frequently in the architectural-geology and historic-restoration fields. It refers to any community of organisms, from cyanobacteria and algae to lichens and plants, that has taken up residence on the exterior of a building.
While doing research for one of my recent books I became fascinated with biofilms, as I dug ever more deeply into the surprisingly extensive literature on them.
Once you become consciously aware of biofilms, you see them practically every place you look in the built environment. After a while I found myself overtly liking them, in the same sociopathic way I like noninvasive weeds. As a naturalist I seem to have been programmed for political incorrectness.
All good restorationists know that biofilms are the enemy, but here I am, admiring and even extolling their survival skills and their ability to find choice lebensraum on a vertical face of dimension stone or brickwork.
But where do you think these amazing settler colonialists developed those skills? In places like this, where competition for space and nutrient sources can be intense. A cliff face or a craggy ledge of seemingly inhospitable rock can prove to be choice real estate if you have the adaptations necessary to develop it correctly. And when one especially goofy animal species starts erecting structures all over the planet with vertical faces clad in stone and fired clay, it's screamingly evident it did so just to give you many more wonderful places to live.
It's true that in my own part of the world I have yet to see any buildings in current use that have the superabundance of biologic diversity that this picture shows. But the time of their profound neglect may come, and it it does, the invaders will be there to sprout and spread wherever they can. (I think, for example, of the beautiful but unmaintained Bandstand in Chicago's Garfield Park. Not only is its choice Murphy Marble covered with calciphilic green algae; there are also trees growing out of its interior.)
But here atop Shawangunk Ridge, at least, no one seems to resent the natural order of living things affixing themselves to exposed rock faces. From top to bottom of this photo, we have quite an impressive ecosystem to scrutinize:
- A shrub or multistemmed tree that has rooted itself in the developing soil profile and O-Horizon leaf litter on top of the ledge;
- An extensive rhizomatous community of Polypodium virginianum, Rock Polypody ferns with evergreen fronds that dangle over the edge; and, on the vertical surfaces themselves,
- Masses of bluish-gray foliose lichens; and
- Dark-green plants, which could be liverworts, nonvascular plants of very ancient pedigree; and perhaps mosses as well, which are also nonvascular; and
- At least one other, smaller fern species spilling out of the widened bedding plane.

Abstract
A noninvasive computer imaging technique allows three-dimensional images of fossil skulls to be generated from two-dimensional serial computerized tomographic scan data. The computer programs can "dissect" the skull in different planes by making portions of it and any obstructing matrix transparent in order to reveal intracranial morphology. The computer image is geometrically precise so that linear distances, angles, areas, volumes, and evaluations of symmetry can be determined.

emkaBELT module - to measure respiration non-invasively
The emkaBELT module measures respiratory parameters in large subjects such as dogs, primates and pigs. It is based on respiratory inductive plethysmography (RIP), a proven method for quantitative and qualitative non-invasive respiratory measurements.
One or two belts are placed around the subject's thorax and/or abdomen. Only one belt is required for measuring lung volume; the second belt, if used, measures the thorax-abdomen phase difference, a surrogate marker of airway resistance.
Two versions are available:
standard emkaBELT module - fitted inside the emkaPACK)
external emkaBELT module - connects to the emkaPACK.
Calibration is straightforward and rapid when using the dedicated module in ecgAUTO.
The external module may be used to increase recording time (because it has its own power supply - 2 AA/R6 batteries).

Fitting upper-limb prostheses is complicated and challenging. Learn the latest techniques in upper-limb prosthetic rehabilitation from experienced prosthetists. Surveying the Interest of Individuals with Upper Limb Loss in Novel Prosthetic Control Techniques (C15E)
Susannah Engdahl, BS
Novel prosthetic control techniques require interfacing directly with an individual’s nervous system. Given the surgically invasive nature of these techniques, it is important to understand whether individuals with upper limb loss are willing to try them. The goal of this work was to evaluate general interest in surgically invasive and noninvasive prosthetic control techniques.
At Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, researchers are conducting cutting edge work to build highly efficient, noninvasive sensors based on carbon nanotube technologies.
Researchers are building a sensor based on enzymes that self-assemble layer by layer onto tiny hallow carbon tubes. When the sensor encounters organophosphates, the active agent in certain insecticides and chemical warfare agents, the enzymes slow down. The reduced activity is transmitted as an electrochemical signal through the carbon nanotubes to the attached electrode. The resulting measurements can show the concentration of organophosphates in a person's saliva, a city's water supply, or other contaminated waters.
