Vaginal Photoplethysmograph - Development

Development

VPG was first introduced in 1967 by Palti and Berovici, who affixed a light source and photosensitive cell onto a gynecological speculum and recorded vaginal pulse waves. Sintchak and Geer improved on the device in 1975 by using a vaginal probe. The vaginal photoplethysmograph was the first practical and reliable device for the measurement of vaginal blood flow.

Famous quotes containing the word development:

    Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.
    Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)

    Every new development for the last three centuries has brought men closer to a state of affairs in which absolutely nothing would be recognized in the whole world as possessing a claim to obedience except the authority of the State. The majority of people in Europe obey nothing else.
    Simone Weil (1909–1943)
