Femtosecond laser in cataract surgery
Femtosecond laser uses an infrared beam of light to precisely separate tissue through a process called photodisruption by generating pulses as short as one-quadrillionth of a second. It has wavelength of 1053 nm and is based on the technology whereby focused laser pulses divide material at the molecular level without transfer of heat or impact to the surrounding tissue.
EPIBULBAR LESIONS
Epibulbar lesions are formed particularly in the conjunctiva and cornea. These lesions are classified into two distinct types that include pigmented and non-pigmented epibulbar lesions. The pigmented epibulbar lesions are those lesions that have pigments while the non-pigmented lesions are those that are translucent or transparent due to the absence of the pigments.
Skeletopedia - Interactive 3D atlas of human bones
Creation of 3D atlas of human bones as an internet page with use of HTML5, Javascript, PHP and MySQL. To obtain polygonal models surface scanners and CT i-CAT scanner were used. Scanned models are true human bones, property of Department of Anatomy LF UK. Primary audience of the atlas are students of medicine. Atlas contains also interactive annotations, automatic search and visualisation of bone structures on 3D models, brief charts with key facts about bones and quizzes.
Preparation of patient before surgery
Here you can find some basic things, which should be done with average patient before surgery.
It has 5 basic steps - lowering the risk of the surgery, appropriate diagnosis, preparation of the operation field, psychological preparation and informed consent.

Presentation provides basic facts on allergic reactions - mechanism, symptoms, allergens. Main accent is put on diagnostic possibilities, both laboratory and in vivo (skin tests). Basic information about anaphylaxis and its management is included as well.
Practicals in Immunology No.6: Methods used in Transplantation Immunology (HLA-Typing)
Presentation provides basic information on the HLA-complex and transplantation immunology, with focus on kidney and haematopoetic stem cell transplantations. Most important HLA-typing methods are explained as well as other techniques used in donor-recipient pair selection.
