Wear can be decreased by applying protective multi-element thin films on the surface of mechanical components (e.g., cutting tools and brake discs). The current study examines how substrate polarisation voltage affects the structural-mechanical relationships of WTiCN thin films made using a combination of HiPIMS and DCMS reactive sputtering. A chemical and structural study of the coatings conducted using EDS an...

We review the main indications for computerized tomography (CI) guided percutaneous procedures and describe some of the techniques involved. The authors also analyse the main applications of CT guided diagnostic and therapeutic proceedures of specific organs and sites, some of which are illustrated with iconography from our hospital. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity are looked at, as well as the ther...
