The purpose of this review is to investigate the clinical utility of functional brain imaging in patients with AD, brain tumours, epilepsy, MS, or Parkinsonâs disease. Because the focus is on clinical utility, the added clinical information that would be provided by Level 1 studies (i.e., studies of technical feasibility) is limited.
The Iron Industry. In the centuries before the Industrial Revolution, the quality of iron and the process of refining it had changed little in Great Britain. Iron had been used for agricultural tools, chains, locks, bolts, nails, horse stirrups, scythes, sickles, and anchors.
Metallurgical Coal. Coal is used to make coke for the iron and steel industry, foundries, and other industries. The presence of large domestic deposits of coking coal, or metallurgical coal, played an important role in the development of the U.S. iron and steel industry.
