The i-LIMB Pulse prosthetic hand, Livingston, Scotland - 05 May 2010
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Murdoch Ferguson / Rex Features ( 1177867m )
Ian Reid, a firefighter from Thurso, Scotland, who had the lower portion of his right arm amputated after a bus accident, has become the first user of the i-LIMB Pulse prosthetic hand
Firefighter First To Get i-LIMB Pulse Prosthetic Hand
FIREFIGHTER FIRST TO GET i-LIMB PULSE PROSTHETIC HAND
Ian Reid was on a summer holiday in Gran Canaria in 2004, when he was involved in a tragic bus accident that claimed the life of his wife and left him with horrific injuries to his right arm.
After a brake failure, the bus rolled onto its side and slid down a steep road, with Ian's arm horrifically trapped.
The firefighter from the Scottish Highlands spent a week in hospital in Gran Canaria, an experience which he recalls as being the worst of his life.
"I couldn't speak the language and was in a lot of pain and discomfort the whole time," he says.
After a week, his insurance company flew him back to Scotland, where he spent several months in intensive care in Aberdeen.
"It was good to be back home, so my family could be with me," recalls the father of three. "My mum and dad came down from Thurso and stayed by my side the whole time, while friends and family pulled together to make sure the kids were looked after."
Ian's injuries were severe, but he still had some remnant bone and tissue from his hand, and the first goal of surgeons was to try and save whatever function they might be able to from his remaining limb.
"It was a terrible-looking injury, like something out of a horror movie," says Ian. "The surgeons tried to retain a basic open and close pinch between my finger and thumb, but it didn't work out in the end."
"Some of the doctors still wanted me to keep what I had left, because they felt that a prosthetic device wouldn't be able to give me back anything more, but I had really come to hate m...

Lifesaving surgery for Florence the shark, Sea Life Centre, Weymouth, Britain - 21 Sep 2009

VET OPERATES ON SHARK TO REMOVE FISH HOOK LODGED IN JAW
A 6ft long shark has received emergency lifesaving surgery to remove a rusty hook from its mouth.
Nurse shark Florence underwent the procedure at the Weymouth Sealife centre in Dorset.
Vet Nick Masters carefully removed the offending fish hook from Florence's jaw during a 45 minute operation.
Operating on a shark out of water is extremely uncommon and the procedure on Florence was the first time it has happened in this country.
For the task Florence was first anaesthetised and tubes were fed into her mouth to let seawater pump out through her gills.
Anaesthetising sharks can be something of a hit and miss affair, making it a potentially dangerous situation for Nick.
With his hands between her jaws, he would have found himself in trouble if Florence had suddenly woken up.
However, the operation proved to be a success and Nick was able to remove the inch long rusty hook.
The hook was first discovered buried in Florence's jaw when staff at the sealife centre noticed that she had gone off her food.
An ultrasound quickly highlighted the reason behind her loss of appetite.
Florence is now eating well again and will spend some time recovering before moving to her new permanent home at the Sea Life Centre in Birmingham

MRI scan projected onto the back of a model, Science Museum, London, Britain - 06 Oct 2008
A model has an MRI scan projected onto her back at the Science Museum's Dana Centre, as part of their Body Perspective event to be held on 14th October. The theme of the event is how science and art study the Human Body and what it can tell us about our own insides/anatomy. Vistors will be able to draw the model in a special life class with a techno-twist led by artist Jeanine Breaker, to find out what lies underneath our skin and to capture the image through art..
