Until recently digital processing of biomedical images was conducted solely in the research laboratories of the universities and industry. However, with the advent of computerized tomography in 1972 and the computerized white blood cell differential count in 1974, enormous changes have suddenly occurred. Digital image pro cessing in biomedicine has now become the most active sector in the digital image processing field. Processing rates have reached the level of one trillion picture elements per year in the United States alone and are expected to be ten trillion per year in 1980. This enormous volume of activity has stimulated further re search in biomedical image processing in the last two years with the result that important inroads have been made in applications in radiology, oncology, and ophthalmology. Although much significant work in this field is taking place in Europe, it is in the United States and Japan that the level of activity is highest."

Will the current age come to a cataclysmic end one day, or, has the "end of the age" already occurred? Will Jesus one day descend out of heaven as a 5' 5" Jewish man, in a physical body, or, was his coming in AD 70? Will there be a resurrection of human corpses out of the dirt, or, is that traditional view of resurrection misguided? Did Adam die the day he ate the forbidden fruit, just as God threatened, or not? These are but a few of the questions discussed in a historical debate between Dominionist (Postmillennialist) Joel McDurmon (PhD) of American Vision, and full (true) preterist, Don K. Preston (D.Div.) president of Preterist Research Institute. This formal debate was held in July, 2012, in Ardmore, Ok., and continues to garner interest and discussion among Bible students. The similarities between the partial preterist camp and the full (or consistent) preterist camp are many, and countless full preterists say the writings of partial preterists such as Ken Gentry, Gary DeMar, etc. led them to the full preterist view. Partial preterists object to this, claiming it is wrong to make that logical leap. In this formal debate, you will find excellent discussion of the issues, as each man presented his case, and sought to refute the other. Here is your chance to read that evidence for yourself, and find your own answers to the End Times Dilemma
