  2. Fluoroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoroscopy

    Just as movies, TV, and web videos are to a substantive extent no longer separate technologies, but only variations on common underlying digital themes, so, too, are the X-ray imaging modes, and indeed, the term "X-ray imaging" is the ultimate hypernym that unites all of them, even subsuming both fluoroscopy and four-dimensional CT (4DCT ...

  3. Fluorescence in situ hybridization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_in_situ...

    The purpose of using RNA FISH is to detect target mRNA transcripts in cells, tissue sections, or even whole-mounts. [10] The process is done in 3 main procedures: tissue preparation (pre-hybridization), hybridization, and washing (post-hybridization).

  4. Skeletal changes of vertebrates transitioning from water to land

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_changes_of...

    The traits enabled animals to check area on land for safe spots if being chased by a predator in water, as well as being useful for searching for prey items above the water. The water-based lateral line system was used substantially by these aquatic tetrapods to detect danger from predators. [ 2 ]

  5. Study of animal locomotion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Study_of_animal_locomotion

    Documentary film, shot at 1200 fps, used to study the locomotion of a cheetah. The end of the video shows the methods used for filming. A variety of methods and equipment are used to study animal locomotion: Treadmills are used to allow animals to walk or run while remaining stationary or confined with respect to external observers.

  6. Physiology of underwater diving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiology_of_underwater...

    The physiology of underwater diving is the physiological adaptations to diving of air-breathing vertebrates that have returned to the ocean from terrestrial lineages. They are a diverse group that include sea snakes, sea turtles, the marine iguana, saltwater crocodiles, penguins, pinnipeds, cetaceans, sea otters, manatees and dugongs.

  7. Adaptation (eye) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptation_(eye)

    The concept of red lenses for dark adaptation is based upon experimentation by Antoine Béclère and his early work with radiology. In 1916, the scientist Wilhelm Trendelenburg invented the first pair of red adaptation goggles for radiologists to adapt their eyes to view screens during fluoroscopic procedures.

  8. Batesian mimicry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batesian_mimicry

    In Batesian mimicry, the mimic effectively copies the coloration of an aposematic animal, known as the model, to deceive predators into behaving as if it were distasteful. [ a ] The success of this dishonest display depends on the level of toxicity of the model and the abundance of the model in the geographical area.

  9. Fluorescein angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescein_angiography

    Baseline color and black and white red-free filtered images are taken prior to injection. The black and white images are filtered red-free (a green filter) to increase contrast and often gives a better image of the fundus than the color image. A 6-second bolus injection of 2-5 cc of sodium fluorescein into a vein in the arm or hand
