- What do you think the purpose is for injecting the contrast through an IV line? during CT scan.arrow_forwardWhy are stereomicroscopes often referred to as dissecting microscopes? Stereomicroscopes come apart (dissect) easily. The large distance between the lens and the specimen makes them ideal for dissections. They are good for viewing much smaller objects. Only a few specimens will fit under the stereomicroscope. The two eyepiece lenses on a stereomicroscope give a better perception of depth.arrow_forwardAn ophthalmic solution contains 2% dorzolamide in 10-mL containers and the prescribed dose is one drop in the affected eye(s) three times daily. If a glaucoma patient doses each eye, and the dropper used delivers 24 drops/mL, what is the quantity, in micrograms, of dorzolamide administered each day? Calculate an answer to one decimal.arrow_forward

- The field of view is the maximum area visible through the lenses of a microscope, and it is represented by a diameter. To determine the diameter of your field of view, you can place a transparent metric ruler under the low power (10X) objective of a microscope. You would focus the microscope on the scale of the ruler and measure the diameter of the field of vision in millimeters. Refer to the image taken of this preparation below. What is the approximate field of view as seen by this 10X objective. Note: This microscope has a 10X eyepiece, giving a total magnification of 100X. 0000 1mm 2mm 3mm 4mm 1mmarrow_forwardIn light microscopy, when magnification is increased, the lens focuses closer to the sample. This makes the user more likely to ram the sample into the lens. Why is it common for the lens to focus closer to the sample at higher magnifications? What can be done to mitigate this risk?arrow_forwardDefine each of the following terms: A) What is resolution and how is resolution related to the wavelength of light used to illuminate the sample? B) What is the magnification of the specimen if you are using a 40x objective and a 10x eyepiece? C) How is the numerical aperture (NA) of a lens related to its ability to gather light from a specimen?arrow_forward
- The diffraction limit is an unbeatable barrier limiting the effective resolution of light microscopy due to the inherent wavelength of light.True or Falsearrow_forwardEstimating size in biology.

He has just made the scalp incision when a unit charge nurse quickly enters the OR saying, "CSP just called and there was a malfunction of the stream sterilizer last night. The sterilizer chart doesn't confirm that these Instruments went through a complete cycle even though the biological indicator have a negative reading". 1)what steps should be 0R team take at this point? 2)what is the concern if the biological indicator have a negative reading? 3)discuss the chain of errors that took place that allowed the instruments to be transported to the OR, opened, and usedarrow_forward
