Early clinical results have been promising; however, the limitations of the closed-bore procedure increase the procedure time significantly over the current standard TRUS-guided techniques (Menard et al. 2004; Ares et al. 2009).
Certainly when I asked my 14-year-old and some of his friends about it, they didn't immediately see anything wrong with fingerprints and scanners in schools – in fact, they quite liked the futuristic style of the technology as opposed to their battered old library cards, or boring registration procedures.

"Point Number 13: boring, boring, boring.
Targeted towards the continuous support of the construction process, a concept for real-time steering support of tunnel boring machines in conjunction with model update procedures and methods of uncertainty quantification is addressed.
The tree's precise age, however, can only be estimated, because to determine exact age, a boring must be conducted -- a procedure that leaves a tree vulnerable to disease and infestation.
Though limited in scope, the question-and-answer format is seen as a badly needed upgrade to a procedure characterised for years by boring monologues.
He hopes, eventually, to become an academic, and would love to split his course load between poetry and the notoriously boring subject of administrative law, which covers the procedures of government agencies.
Biopsy procedures were performed in a closed-bore 3-T clinical MR system on a dedicated phased-array breast coil with a commercially available add-on stereotactic biopsy device.
"There's a couple of issues that I'd like to see" cleared up, he said, referring to the procedures used to create fractures around well bores to release the gas.
