Study of Health in Pomerania Pomeranian adult population. In the Northeast of Germany nearly 50% - 60% indicate these diseases. SHIP is the first population based cohort study worldwide which includes whole-body MRI. The aims of the following main whole body-MRI study are: (1)To provide prevalence estimates for different MR findings in a general adult population. (2)To establish population-based MRI reference parameters for various organs and organ parts such as left and right ventricular size or volume of liver, spleen, kidney, prostate, and brain structures . Clinical MR reference parameters currently in use were derived from small, nonrepresentative samples and are thus prone to selection

That is, we usually think of the world as composed of relatively stable entities ("bodies," beings). But these bodies are really composed of sets of flows moving at various speeds (rocks and mountains as very slow-moving flows; living things as flows of biological material
