The procedure is call Endo Venous Laser Therapy and uses a small bore fiber optic to deliver laser energy to the internal structure of the blood vessel. The procedure is outpatient and only requires a local anesthetic. Several visits may be required to correct the problem.

When air inside a bottle is heated, it expands and increases pressure. If the bottle cannot withstand this increased pressure, it will collapse as the hot air cools down and contracts, creating a vacuum. The difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the bottle causes it to collapse.

Why doesn't air pressure crush an empty soft drink can that is sitting on a table in your house?

The air pressure inside and outside the can is equal, so there is no net force on the can causing it to collapse. When you crush a can, you decrease the volume inside, so the pressure outside is greater, causing it to collapse.


Why does a sealed empty tin can collapse when the air inside the can is pumped out?

When the air inside the can is pumped out, there is a decrease in pressure inside the can. The outside air pressure then pushes on the sides of the can, causing it to collapse. This happens because the higher pressure outside the can is not balanced by the lower pressure inside the can.

What happens to an object created inside a procedure when the procedure finishes?

When a procedure finishes, any objects created inside it are typically destroyed and their memory is deallocated, unless the object is returned from the procedure or stored in a way that allows it to persist beyond the procedure's scope. If the object is not properly managed, it may lead to memory leaks or unexpected behavior in the program.
