IIH is diagnosed with a brain scan ( to rule out other causes ) and a lumbar puncture ; lumbar puncture may also provide temporary and sometimes permanent relief from the symptoms.

This is a dangerous sign, indicative of a brain tumor, CNS inflammation or idiopathic intracranial hypertension ( IIH ) that may become manifest in the near future.

Therefore, IIH can only be diagnosed if there is no alternative explanation for the symptoms.

Three theories therefore exist as to why the pressure might be raised in IIH: an excess of CSF production, increased volume of blood or brain tissue, or obstruction of the veins that drain blood from the brain.

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension ( IIH ), sometimes called by the older names benign intracranial hypertension ( BIH ) or pseudotumor cerebri ( PTC ), is a neurological disorder that is characterized by increased intracranial pressure ( pressure around the brain ) in the absence of a tumor or other diseases.

The most common symptom of IIH is headache, which occurs in almost all ( 92 – 94 %) cases.

Various other symptoms, such as numbness of the extremities, generalized weakness, loss of smell, and loss of coordination, are reported more rarely ; none are specific for IIH.

This occurs in practically all cases of IIH, but not everyone experiences symptoms from this.

The cause of IIH is not known.

However, there is no experimental data that supports a role for this process in IIH.

The original criteria for IIH were described by Dandy in 1937.

These diuretics, along with surgical interventions, can also treat IIH.

In IIH, weight loss ( even a loss of 10-15 %) can lead to normalization of ICP.

During these activities, the researchers took functional magnetic resonance imaging ( fMRI ) scans of the participants ' brains and were " surprised by the results ".

The images from these scans took 2. 5 hours to be processed by algebraic reconstruction techniques on a large computer.

In 2007, French engineer Pascal Cotte announced that his ultra high resolution scans of the painting provide evidence that Mona Lisa was originally painted with eyelashes and with better visible eyebrows, but that these had gradually disappeared over time, perhaps as a result of overcleaning.

Electron densities are often probed with X-ray diffraction scans, where X-rays of a suitable wavelength are targeted towards a sample and measurements are made over time to represent, probabilistically, where electrons can be found, from these positions molecular structures can often be determined for crystallized systems.

All these symptoms are non-specific and can also arise with a range of problems other than cancer, and a diagnosis can only be made following confirmatory investigations such as computed tomography ( CT ) scans, laparotomy and / or a biopsy of the ovary.

The results were released at the 75th Anniversary of the Museum on August 6, 2005, with detailed scans, and these were covered by a Time Magazine article on the subject.

A cross-sectional tomograph ( B-scan ) may be achieved by laterally combining a series of these axial depth scans ( A-scan ).

Next came SPECT and PET scans, which allowed scientists to map brain function because, unlike MRI and CT, these scans could create more than just static images of the brain's structure.

Cash deposits effected through these ATMs are available in customers ’ accounts in real-time due to a mechanism which scans the legal tender deposited.

Other researchers propose the usage of software that keeps a database of detected errors and automatically scans program code for these common errors.

It is not yet possible to inspect these representations directly with brain scans or similar techniques, so SLA researchers are forced to make inferences about these rules from learners ' speech or writing.

The key idea of the Sort-merge algorithm is to first sort the relations by the join attribute, so that interleaved linear scans will encounter these sets at the same time.

Due to the lanternfishes ' gas bladders, these layers are visible on sonar scans and give the impression of a " false bottom ": this is the so-called deep-scattering layer that so perplexed early oceanographers.

Ultrasound scans have been a major leap forward in the care of mother and baby, and with them becoming portable, these advantages have spread to rural populations.

None of these apply in scans of 2-D art, but all of these apply here.

However, the clinical utility of these scans compared to scans of core portions of the body is disputed.

At these sizes though, boot time becomes significantly long, as the Lyra scans the entire card before presenting you with any menu.

quantitative study with CAT scans of the faces of men and women in several age brackets has revealed that there is an appreciable amount of loss of bone tissue in these regions with age, leading to changes in angles, lengths and volumes, and also decreasing the distance between the eyes.

What these fragments are and how they activate the go order may not be revealed.

To a stranger their delight in these things may seem paradoxical, for Persians chase the golden calf as much as any people.

Here in these little rooms -- or stages arched open to the sky and river -- they choose a few lines out of the hundreds they may know and sing them according to one of the modes into which Persian music is divided.

The answers derived by these means may determine not only the temporal organization of the dance but also its spatial design, special slips designating the location on the stage where the movement is to be performed.

And although these insights into the nature of art may be in themselves insufficient for a thoroughgoing philosophy of art, their peculiar authenticity in this day and age requires that they be taken seriously and gives promise that from their very substance, new and valid chapters in the philosophy of art may be written.

Later abstractive and rational processes may indicate errors of judgment in these apprehensions of value, but the apprehensions themselves are the primary stuff of experience.

The United States is always ready to participate with the Soviet Union in serious discussion of these or any other subjects that may lead to peace with justice.

William Wimsatt and Cleanth Brooks, it seems to me, have a penetrating insight into the way in which this control is effected: `` For if we say poetry is to talk of beauty and love ( and yet not aim at exciting erotic emotion or even an emotion of Platonic esteem ) and if it is to talk of anger and murder ( and yet not aim at arousing anger and indignation ) -- then it may be that the poetic way of dealing with these emotions will not be any kind of intensification, compounding, or magnification, or any direct assault upon the affections at all.

This understanding, of course, may in its turn take many forms and some of these -- especially those most interesting to the student of comparative literature -- are essentially historical.

Since the great flood of these dystopias has appeared only in the last twelve years, it seems fairly reasonable to assume that the chief impetus was the 1949 publication of Nineteen Eighty-Four, an assumption which is supported by the frequent echoes of such details as Room 101, along with education by conditioning from Brave New World, a book to which science-fiction writers may well have returned with new interest after reading the more powerful Orwell dystopia.

Nevertheless, with all these qualifications and exceptions, the current dystopian phenomenon remains impressive for its criticism that science and technology, instead of bringing utopia, may well enslave, dehumanize, and even destroy men.

Easily the best known of these three novels is The Space Merchants, a good example of a science-fiction dystopia which extrapolates much more than the impact of science on human life, though its most important warning is in this area, namely as to the use to which discoveries in the behavioral sciences may be put.

The defect of these proposals is in their attempt to outrun history and their assumption that because something may be desirable it is also possible.

However, his subject matter and basic themes have remained surprisingly consistent, and these, together with certain key poetic images, may be traced through all his work, including the new jazz experiments.

Capable as their minds may be in some directions, these guardians of the nation's security are incapable of learning, or even of observing.

Moreover, once these steps are taken, they may require years to make themselves felt.

and now, therefore, do I, John A. Notte, Jr., governor of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, proclaim the week of april 29th to may 7th, 1961, as Rhode Island Heritage Week, advising our citizens that throughout this week many historic houses and beautiful gardens will be open to visitors as well as industrial plants, craft shops, museums and libraries and I earnestly urge all to take advantage of these opportunities to see as many of these places as they can during this outstanding week.

But during nighttime hours the skywave radiations are reflected from the ionosphere, thereby creating the possibility of one station's rendering service, via skywave, at a much greater distance than it can through its groundwave signal, and at the same time vastly complicating the interference problem because of the still greater distance over which these skywave signals may cause interference to the signals of stations on the same and closely adjacent frequencies.

You may deduct these payments even though your child uses the money to purchase his own clothing or other necessities which you are normally obligated to furnish him, and even though you may be entitled to his services.

Exposure problems may occur in these forest areas where uneven lighting results from shafts of sunlight filtering through the overhead branches.

We may then dismiss the time difference between these courses and the usual four year course of the interior design student as not having serious bearing on the subject.

The local decorator who rushes in for a few hours of teaching may but more likely may not have these qualifications.
