In science and especially in medicine, ebooks have become more and more important during the last years. Having a cooperation with the author of one of the leading books of internal medicine in Germany, the idea came up to publish his book in a version for PDA. As by now, there is no satisfying solution for this. The existing products are either made for belletristic or they have no sufficient copy protection or both. This led to the decision of creating an own software to meet market needs. The result of this process is SciReader (short form for "scientific ebook reader"), a software for the technique of the new millennium.

Ein neues Erbium-YAG Laser Vitrektomie-System (Wavelight Laser Technologie, Erlangen) wurde auf seine klinische Anwendbarkeit getestet. Zwischen Jänner 1998 und März 1998 wurden 17 Patienten bei denen eine Vitrektomie indiziert war mit dem Erbium-YAG Laser Vitrektomie-System operiert. Intraoperativ gelang die Entfernung des zentralen Glaskörpers rasch, ebenso die Säuberung der Glaskörperbasis und die Entfernung der hinteren Glaskörpergrenzmembran. Lose, flottierende Membranen konnten leicht durchtrennt werden, feste praeretinale Membranen konnten mit dem Laser Handstück nicht zugfrei unterfahren und durchtrennt werden. Bei einer Beobachtungszeit von mindestens 6 Wochen traten keine laser-assoziierten Komplikationen auf. Der Vorteil dieses Erbium-YAG Laser Vitrektomie-Systems liegt in seiner hohen Schneidfrequenz sowie seiner Energiemodulation und der guten klinischen Anwendbarkeit für die komplexe vitreo-retinale Chirurgie. en|Summary We tested a new Erbium-YAG Laser Vitrektomie-System (Wavelight Laser Technology — Erlangen) for its clinical use in vitreoretinal surgery. Between Jan. 1998 and March 1998 17 patients, where vitrectomy was indicated, underwent vitreous surgery with the Erbium-YAG Laser Vitrektomie-System. Central (core) vitrectomy could be performed quickly and efficiently, the removal of the vitreous base, the posterior hyaloid as well as loose membranes was possible. Dense vitreous membranes — adhaerent on both sides on the retina — could not be cutted with this handpiece without traction and were cutted with scissors. No laser — associated complications did occur in this series; the minimal observation time was 6 weeks. The advantage of this Erbium-YAG Laser Vitrektomie-System lies in the high cutting rate up to 30 Herz and the modulation of energy up to 60–80 mJoules, which offers new possibilities for the surgery of complex vitreo — retinal diseases.
