endocrine system. The survival rate of patients diagnosed with DTC is around 90%. The disease primarily affects young patients. The most common treatment for DTC is thyroid removal, followed by ablation of the remaining tissue with radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy. One concern for these patients is the risk of developing a nonsynchronous second primary malignancy (NSPM) during their lifetime. There have been previous studies that have concluded that approximately 30% to 40% of DTC survivors have a

precise locations of radioactivity in the entire body, which can identify distant metastases or any remaining thyroid tissue. The size and location of radioactivity can influence whether doctors chooses surgical excision, radioactive iodine therapy (RAI), or external radiation therapy for those areas. Planar imaging has a sensitivity of 41%, specificity of 68%, and an accuracy of 61% compared to SPECT imaging having rates of 45%, 89%, and 78%. With the combining of SPECT/CT,

The Effect Invasive Species Have on the Environment The book entitled, “Ecology of Weeds and Invasive Plants”, opens with a quote from Dr. A. S. Crafts saying, “in the beginning there were no weeds.”. This quote causes one to stop and think about it. What Dr. Crafts meant by this quote was that even though plants have existed for many years, weeds did not exist before humans began to travel about.

Biochar is a carbon-rich product obtained when biomass, such as wood, manure or leaves, is heated in a closed container with little or no available air. In more technical terms, biochar is produced by so-called thermal decomposition of organic material under limited supply of oxygen (O2), and at relatively low temperatures (<700°C). This process often mirrors the production of charcoal, which is one of the most ancient industrial technologies developed by being (Harris, 1999). Terra Petra is known
