## Abstract The relation between renal length (L) and the distance between the first four lumbar transverse processes, (4TP) as measured by sonography and intravenous urography, has been studied in 20 adults with normal urograms. The ratio of L/4TP (Mean Β± 2.S.D.) was 1.04 Β± 0.22 for sonograms and

Abstract
By measuring the liver area (maximum seciton) and plotting this against intraβabdoinal area at the same level, one can calculate tolerance levels for 80 per cent of the population (63 normal patients) with a 95 per cent confidence. This provides a simple semiquantitative index in relating liver size of a specific patient to the normal range. Its use in 14 patients with liver disease was demonstrated.

## Abstract In 141 newborn infants ultrasonic measurement of liver area was performed on the third postnatal day. The liver area was represented by a cross section of the liver at the level where the portal vein entered the organ. There was a linear increase in liver area from 26.8 cm^2^ at 37 week
## Abstract Accurate approximations are introduced for the evaluation of inverse interparticle distances such that square root or division operations are not required in the computation of interparticle interactions and forces. These generally applicable approximations are illustrated by incorporat
Subjective data are often the only data available for making decisions and choices in both hardware and software development. These data are therefore both important and valuableβ’ Their importance is such that it is necessary to elicit subjective data from a variety of sources and in a manner that i
A simple method for the preparation of rat liver mate oxidase is described. The enzyme was purified from rat liver homogenate by cell fractionation, detergent treatment, alkali treatment, and affinity chromatography on %aminoxanthinebound Sepharose 4B. This enzyme preparation had a specific activity
