  2. Thermoception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoception

    In physiology, thermoception or thermoreception is the sensation and perception of temperature, or more accurately, temperature differences inferred from heat flux.It deals with a series of events and processes required for an organism to receive a temperature stimulus, convert it to a molecular signal, and recognize and characterize the signal in order to trigger an appropriate defense response.

  3. Lactiferous duct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactiferous_duct

    Lactiferous ducts are ducts that converge and form a branched system connecting the nipple to the lobules of the mammary gland.When lactogenesis occurs, under the influence of hormones, the milk is moved to the nipple by the action of smooth muscle contractions along the ductal system to the tip of the nipple.

  4. Thermoreceptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoreceptor

    Thermoreceptors of the skin sense the temperature of water. A thermoreceptor is a non-specialised sense receptor, or more accurately the receptive portion of a sensory neuron, that codes absolute and relative changes in temperature, primarily within the innocuous range.

  5. Non-contact thermography - Wikipedia

    The FDA has issued a public warning notice stating that breast thermography is not an alternative to mammography [8] and has ordered Joseph Mercola to stop making excessive claims for thermography. [9] Thermography is discouraged in North America by the American Cancer Society, radiologists and the FDA for early breast cancer detection.

It is being actively developed by Thermo Fisher Scientific in collaboration with the Zuse Institute Berlin (ZIB), and commercially distributed by Thermo Fisher Scientific — together with its sister software Avizo.

  7. Cortical cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortical_cooling

    In cats, the ability to disengage visual attention and redirect it to a new location is normally localizable to posterior middle suprasylvian (pMS) cortex, and investigators wanted to determine if, when primary visual cortical areas 17 and 18 are removed at birth, the neural functions of these areas are redistributed across other sections of ...

    CAT or Coding Analysis Toolkit was a web-based suite of CAQDAS tools. It is free and open source software, and is developed by the Qualitative Data Analysis Program of the University of Pittsburgh. According to the CAT website, [1] the tool was decommissioned on September 13, 2020. CAT is able to import Atlas.ti data, but also has an internal ...
