How does the Lunar PIXImus II densitometer work?

PIXImus Frequently Asked Questions
PIXImus II utilizes Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) technology. A small x-ray source exposes the entire animal to a cone shaped beam of both high and low energy x-rays. A high-resolution digital picture (0.18x0.18mm) is taken of an image of the x-rays hitting a luminescent panel. The ratio of attenuation of the high and low energies allows the PIXImus to separate bone from tissue and, from within the tissue samples, the lean and fat.

How does Lunar soak work?

Edge of Creation: Exalted FAQ
In the Lunar book, we learn that a Lunar Exalted cannot have a natural soak (i.e., soak gained from Stamina, Charms, and Beastman-form Gifts) higher than 12L/12B. [Lunars, 127] Any points of natural soak above that amount "spill over" and allow the Lunar to totally ignore weak attacks. The Player's Guide refers to this as "hardness"; Power Combat changes many soak Charms to provide hardness.

How does the mini-map work in Diablo II?

Unofficial DiabloII.net Diablo II FAQ -- Page One
There are actually two forms of mapping in Diablo II. The first is the overlay map, and it works just like it did in Diablo, but it's much more necessary now, since there are such enormous outdoor levels, and maze-like dungeon levels, that getting lost is very possible. You can see the new overlay map here, and it is much improved in appearance from Diablo's.

How does TCAS II work?

Southeast Aerospace FAQ
TCAS II is a system used for detecting and tracking aircraft in the area of an aircraft. TCAS interrogates transponders in other aircraft and analyzes the replies to determine range, bearing, and relative altitude (if reporting) of the intruder aircraft. When the TCAS II processor determines that a potential collision hazard exists, it will issue visual and audio advisories to the pilot/copilot for appropriate vertical avoidance maneuvers.

How accurate is the PIXImus?

PIXImus Frequently Asked Questions
Accuracy was initially determined using phantoms of known values in the research labs at Lunar and a correlation study between the PIXImus and gravimetric and chemical extraction techniques was performed by one of their test sites. The test site utilized C57BL/J6 mice weighing between 19-29 grams (n=25), a Soxhlet, and petroleum ether. Correlation to lean tissue mass of the total body was excellent (r=0.99) where as the smaller components of fat mass and bone mass was very good (r=0.93 and r=0.

How precise is the PIXImus?

PIXImus Frequently Asked Questions
Precision was determined at test sites where they found the PIXImus to be highly precise on both tissue and bone results when live mice (n=25, 19-29g) were imaged three times each. The mean intra-individual coefficient of variation (CV) was: lean tissue mass 0.86%, fat mass 1.60%, BMC 1.60% and BMD 0.84%. Analysis of in vivo mouse femurs (n=27) have excellent precision at 3.31% for BMC and 1.20% for BMD (see the abstract section for details of these and studies).

How does the PASS-Key II system work?

Miscellaneous
PASS-Key II works with a small resistor chip embedded in your ignition key. This chip gives a certain resistance. When the ignition key is inserted into the car for the very first time at the factory the computer controller memorizes the exact resistance of that chip and will not start again w/o it. This provides pretty good protection against all but the more sophisticated thief. A knowledgeable thief can get around it with the right equipment, but the time to steal goes up considerably.

Cancer Treatments / Therapy Results, Survival Rates, Toxicit...
Clinical studies that test new drugs, drug combinations and treatments on people are divided into four basic phases - Phase I, II, III, or IV. A Phase I trial or study is the first step in testing a new treatment in humans. These studies test the best way to give a new treatment (for example, by mouth, intravenous infusion, or injection) and the best dose. The dose is usually increased a little at a time in order to find the highest dose that does not cause significant side effects.

How large an animal can the PIXImus handle?

PIXImus Frequently Asked Questions
its name implies, the PIXImus is built for automatic acquisition and analysis of bone and tissue of a mouse (10-50g). The PIXImus II has software that can analyze mice and other animals outside of this range, like ob\ob and infant mice, with some manual input. The imaging window (80x65mm) is large enough for the body of a mouse or similar sized animals, but will miss a portion of the head on larger mice.

Why does the option in Chartwheels II's Main Menu, "Go to Timegraphs" not work?

Astrolabe Product Support
This option only worked if you had Timegraphs I in the same subdirectory with Chartwheels. With Timegraphs II on your system this option is now disabled. The way to go easily from one to the other of these two programs is to always start Timegraphs II first. In Timegraphs II's main menu, to go back to Chartwheels, select the "Go to Calculation" option. This starts Chartwheels or another calculation program found or selected when you ran the TGSETUP installation program.

What if our densitometer is out for repairs? May I still perform mammography?

The 1999 ACR Mammography Quality Control Manual
No. Without a densitometer, you cannot measure the optical densities or degree of blackening of film. The daily QC is required to be conducted prior to processing patient films. No alternative is currently available to verify processor performance without a densitometer. If your facility plans to use a loaner densitometer, reintroduce one into service after repair/calibration, or obtain a new densitometer, you should contact your medical physicist for assistance on how to proceed.

Q8. What is a lunar intrusion and why does it affect GOES ?

NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite Frequ...
A8. A lunar intrusion is when the moon drifts into a GOES Earth sensor chord, requiring the sensor to be operated in "single-chord" mode (See question 6). Due to improvements made in the flight software, there is no impact to products during this mode of operation. Each GOES satellite will typically experience 4 to 6 lunar intrusions per month, each lasting approximately 90 minutes.

However, you can connect a modem to the Fax port on the back of the unit to send and receive data and faxes from a PC. This would be identical to using the modem on a regular analog line.
