Laser Spine Institute Opens New Medical Center in Philadelphia

After helping thousands of patients get their lives back through minimally invasive endoscopic spinal surgery at their facilities in Tampa and Scottsdale, the Laser Spine Institute announces the opening of a new medical center in Philadelphia. In the last four years, more than 1,000 residents of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey and New York have traveled to LSI to gain relief from their debilitating back and neck pain. LSI is now able to provide innovative spinal procedures to meet the overwhelming demand from residents of the Northeast with the new Pennsylvania facility. The surgery center offers two comfortable patient lounge areas, four examination rooms, an open and revitalizing pre-op and post-op space and two state-of-the-art operating rooms with the most technologically advanced equipment available. Situated in suburban Philadelphia between Valley Forge and King of Prussia, the location takes advantage of the beautiful seasons of eastern Pennsylvania.

Malvern Instruments Product Manager to Discuss Use of Spraytec Laser Diffraction Particle Size Analyzer

Dr Paul Kippax, product manager for diffraction systems at Malvern Instruments, is one of a group of powder dispersion and characterization experts who will speak in Leeds, UK, on 8 December 2009 at a meeting on ‘Dispersion and Characterization of Dry Cohesive Powders for Inhalation and Particle Sizing’. The meeting, organised by researchers from the Institute of Particle Science and Engineering at Leeds University, will address the current state of the art and science of powder dispersion for pulmonary drug delivery, and the characterization of physical and mechanical powder properties, such as size and shape. Dr Kippax will discuss the use of the Spraytec laser diffraction particle size analyzer in understanding the operation of dry powder inhalers (DPIs) and the application of image analysis to understanding the structure of the agglomerates they produce.
