    We present geophysical data integrated with the analysis of well-targeted sediment samples in order to contribute to a better understanding of fluid circulation in the Calabrian Arc accretionary wedge. Two cores (BS81/II 5 and BS81/II 10) collected on a swell in the hangingwall of the inner deformation front show upper Pleistocene mud breccias that include Cretaceous to Late Miocene rock fragments mechanically incorporated into the eruption deposit by the upward transport of overpressured fluids. An additional core (CALA 21) came from the summit of a topographic high in the footwall of the inner deformation front of the accretionary wedge and contains a mud breccia patchy/cloudy facies where sediment disturbance is caused by fluid expulsion. Integration of the entire data set provides evidences of the interplay among tectonics, fluid emissions and sedimentation, and enables the identification of two new volcanoes in the accretionary prism where overpressuring due to Pliocene and Pleistocene sediment accumulation and the evolution of active fault systems triggered fluid circulation and the formation of those structures

    Breast cancer is thecmost frequency malignancy in women in the world and also in Italy.In Trieste most of breast lesions are investigated by fine needle aspiration cytology under ultrasound guidance (FNAC). Tru-cut is used when FNAC is inadequate, for discrepancy with radiology or to have a biomolecular profiling,expecially in neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Vacuum Aspiration Biopsy (VAB) is used in case of microcalcifications or mammographic abnormalitues without evidence of nodules.FNAC's goal is to define breast lesions avoiding more invasive procedures,, it provides several benefits for women, for pathologists and for the public healt

    The study of the Calabrian Arc in the Ionian Sea is key to understanding of the geological processes in the Mediterranean Sea. We present the technical details and results of cruise CALAMARE08 with N/O Urania during spring 2008. We acquired a large set of geological and geophysical data, among them Multichannels Seismic and SBP, magnetometry, gravimetry, swath bathymetry and coring of sea bottom. 1.
