Osteochondroma Osteochondroma is the most common noncancerous bone tumor that develops in children and adolescents. This tumor forms on the surface of a bone near the growth plate‚ usually on the arm‚ leg‚ and hip bones. It is made up of mostly bone and cartilage which allow it to continue growing until your bones stop growing; for girls this usually happens around the age of 16‚ and for boys 18. Osteochondroma is also benign‚ meaning that it does not spread to other parts of the body and it

MEDIA VIOLENCE AND CHILDREN Your children are surrounded by violence. From video games and television to the news itself‚ bloodshed is everywhere. Many parents and educators fear that violence seen on the media will at the very least desensitize children‚ and that it may even make children more likely to commit atrocities themselves. Other people claim the violence seen on the media is not real‚ and that children understand this. So who’s right? In order to better understand this crucial issue

The Teenage Brain 1. What is an MRI? How are they using them to study the teenage brain? An MRI is a magnetic resonance imaging. It is technology that maps the blood flow to the areas of the brain as their exposed to various stimuli. They are using MRI to study teenage brain by comparing the blood flow of adults when they get stimuli to teenagers when get stimuli by various activities. 2. What is the number one reason teenagers are different? What does the Frontal Lobe do to suggest this? The number

Gadolinium is a paramagnetic metal icon. These paramagnetic icons move differently within a magnetic field in which these make the gadolinium useful for something more familiar in today’s medicine such as MRI. Gadolinium helped doctors and medical professionals to be able to see a patient’s internal organs‚ inflammation‚ tumors‚ blood vessels‚ and tissue. The quality of MRI’s are enhanced by altering the magnetic properties of water molecules when gadolinium is used. Gadolinium used by itself is toxic
