FIGURE 2.37 Thoracic duct and other vessels of the thorax. Lymphatic capillaries are most numerous just beneath body surfaces, such as the skin and the mucus membranes of the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. The mucus membrane of the gastrointestinal tract is called the gut mucosa. The general function of these capillaries is to absorb interstitial fluid that has leaked from the circulatory system and to return it to the bloodstream. The function of the l)miphatic capillaries that end in the lacteals of the small intestine is to transport absorbed dietary lipids. These capillaries coalesce and eventually deliver their contents to the thoracic duct. The lymph collected from other parts of the body, as indicated by the "collecting trunk," also is transferred to the thoracic duct.

The application of infrared spectroscopy to the inorganic compounds started as a more frequent technique during the 60 s with Lawson. This author made a first attempt to compile the work done in the relatively new field-inorganic Infrared Spectroscopy since 1952 where 1171 references were reported. Farmer, in 1964, studied the silicates and Nakamoto in relation to the coordinated compounds prepared a helpful atlas of these compounds. Afremow (1966) presented for an important research of inorganic pigments and extenders in the mid-infrared region from 1500 cm-1 to 200 cm-1. The study of surface chemistry and the nature of surface functional groups was also advanced by Basila (1968). 

Environmental Surveillance Study (CHESS) and subsequent programs trying to link air pollution with human health effects. The second is the Cancer Mortality Atlas published by NCI in 1973 that identifies cancer incidence as a function of geographical distribution. As part of this effort, in-depth cancer statistics were also obtained by NCI on several Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSAs). 

Fig.8.18. Also taken from the Brain Atlas for Functional Imaging (BAFI) (Nowinski and Thirunavuukarasuu 2000). Image shows a coronal image from a functional MRI series which has been coregistered into the Taliarach coordinate system. The right panels indicate the position of the marker point on the atlas and the/ r right panel gives a coordinate description of the areas of activation...
