Ovaries

The ovaries are two small organs located on either side of the uterus

in a woman's body. They make hormones, including estrogen, which

trigger menstruation. Every month, the ovaries release a tiny egg. The

egg makes its way down the fallopian tube to potentially be fertilized.

Select 3 of the fracture type and report on it..Types of Fractures

• A fracture is a partial or complete break in the bone. When a fracture occurs, it is classified as either open or closed:

open fracture (Also called compound fracture.) - the bone exits and is visible through the skin, or a deep wound that exposes the bone through the skin.

closed fracture (Also called simple fracture.) - the bone is broken, but the skin is intact.

• Fractures have a variety of names. Below is a listing of the common types that may occur

Greenstick - incomplete fracture. The broken bone is not completely separated -

Transverse - the break is in a straight line across the bone -

Spiral - the break spirals around the bone; common in a twisting injury -

Therapeutic Procedures

Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy is a cancer treatment that uses concentrated radiation beams to kill cancer cells. The most common type of radiation therapy is external beam radiation. This type involves a machine that directs high-energy beams of radiation at cancer cells. The machine allows radiation to be targeted at specific sites, which is why doctors use external beam radiation for nearly all types of cancer..

The main goals of radiation therapy are to shrink tumors and kill cancer cells. While the therapy also will likely injure healthy cells, the damage isn’t permanent. Your normal, noncancerous cells have the ability to recover from radiation therapy. To minimize the effect radiation has on the body, the radiation is targeted only to a specific point(s) in your body.

Radiation therapy can be used during different stages of cancer treatment and for different outcomes. Radiation therapy can be used:•to alleviate symptoms in advanced, late-stage cancer•as the primary treatment for cancer •in conjunction with other cancer treatments•to shrink a tumor before surgery•to kill any remaining cancer cells after surgery

Therapeutic ultrasound refers generally to any type of ultrasonic procedure that uses ultrasound for therapeutic benefit. This includes HIFU, lithotripsy, targeted ultrasound drug delivery, trans-dermal ultrasound drug delivery, ultrasound hemostasis, cancer therapy, and ultrasound assisted thrombolysis[1] [2] It may use focused ultrasound (FUS) or unfocused ultrasound.Ultrasound is a method of stimulating the tisue beneath the skin's surface using very high frequency sound waves, between 800,000 Hz and 2,000,000 Hz, which cannot be heard by humans

Lymph nodecontains specialized lymphocytes that are capable of destroying pathogens

Lymphatic vessels Lymphatic vessels are among several structures belonging to your lymphatic system. In order to understand how lymphatic vessels work, you'll first need a rudimentary knowledge of how your circulatory system functions because many of these two systems' tasks are intertwined. In fact, the vessels of your lymphatic system tend to run right alongside the vessels of your circulatory system.

Lymphatic Capillaries• Lymphatic capillaries are designed to pick up the fluid that leaks into

your tissues from your bloodstream and return it to your circulatory system.

• Over-the-counter drugs (OTC) are used to treat conditions not necessarily requiring care from a healthcare professional and have been proven to meet higher safety standards for self-medication by patients. Often a lower strength of a drug will be approved for OTC use, whereas higher strengths require a prescription to be obtained; a notable case is ibuprofen, which has been widely available as an

• OTC pain killer since the mid-1980s but is still available by prescription in doses up to four times the OTC dose for use in cases of severe pain not adequately controlled by the lower, OTC strength.

• Herbal preparations, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and other food supplements are regulated by the FDA as dietary supplements. Because specific health claims cannot be made, the consumer must make informed decisions when purchasing such products
