Ophthalmologists can play a pivotal role in detection and treatment of life-threatening disorders by recognizing syndromes associated with retinal tumors.

The P wave in the ECG represents atrial depolarization, which results in atrial contraction.
P motion travels fastest in materials, so the P-wave is the first-arriving energy on a seismogram. Generally smaller and higher frequency than the S and Surface-waves. P waves in a liquid or gas are pressure waves, including sound waves. S, Shear, Secondary, Transverse. Alternating transverse motions (perpendicular to the direction of propagation, and the ray path); commonly approximately polarized such that particle motion is in vertical or horizontal planes.
