Methods: The course and therapeutic outcome of 12 cases of glomus tumor which were resected and confirmed by histology examination were analyzed. Results:All cases were followed up for six months up to 2 years, no recurrences were observed, the shape of the nait was normal. Conclusion: Microsurgical treatment of glomus tumors of the nail bed is effective.展开更多

Targeting reliability of bed-of-nails tester is successfully evaluated by the 2D pattern transform. Probe offset vector with its Weibull and Gaussian distribution estimates are obtained for further investigation about the causes of misalignment on the basis of a batch tests for same kind of PCBs.展开更多
