The time-dependent reproduction number, R t , is a key metric used by epidemiologists to assess the current state of an outbreak of an infectious disease. This quantity is usually estimated using time…
Accommodating large increases in sample workloads has presented a major challenge to clinical laboratories during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite the implementation of automa…
BACKGROUND: Choice of appropriate MR pulse sequence is important for any research studies using imaging-derived data. The aim of this study was to compare semiquantitative assessment of subchondral bo…
Selective suppression of silicone or fat with chemical shift-selective (CHESS) pulses is difficult because of the small chemical shift difference between the primary lipid signal and the primary silic…
OBJECTIVE: To present the experiences of consumers with traditional hearing aids (T-HAs) and digital signal processing hearing aids (DSP-HAs) during the period 1999-2001, based on data obtained from a…
Feasible and reproducible synthesis of full-length Aâ peptides has been one of the major challenges in Alzheimer's disease research. By using dimethyl sulfoxide as an anti-aggregation solvent and as a…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate sequences that are established at lower magnetic field strengths for lumbar spine imaging at 7 Tesla (7 T) MR imaging.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The lumbar…
In this work, a number of important issues associated with fast spin echo (FSE) imaging of the human brain at 4.7 T are addressed. It is shown that FSE enables the acquisition of images with high reso…
PURPOSE: A system for digital integration of an open MR scanner (0.23 T, Figure 1) in therapy simulation and 3D radiation treatment planning is described.METHOD: MR images were acquired using the body…
The T-tubule (TT) system forms the structural basis for excitation-contraction coupling in heart and muscle cells. The morphogenesis of the TT system is a key step in the maturation of heart cells bec…
OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study is to examine the effect of contrast agent (CA) dose and diffusion coefficient on the estimation of vessel size index (VSI).MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three groups of fo…
Tagged magnetic resonance imaging allows the noninvasive measurement of regional systolic myocardial deformations and helps localize ischemic regions in the left ventricle (LV). The objective of this …
The N-terminus of the B-chain of insulin may adopt two alternative conformations designated as the T- and R-states. Despite the recent structural insight into insulin-insulin receptor (IR) complexes, …
Estimation of multiple T2 components within single imaging voxels typically proceeds in one of two ways; a nonparametric grid approximation to a continuous distribution is made and a regularized nonne…
DNA diagnostics, the detection of specific DNA sequences, will play an increasingly important role in medicine as the molecular basis of human disease is defined. Here, we demonstrate an automated, no…
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the image quality of time-resolved contrast-enhanced MRA (tr-MRA) employing echo-sharing with stochastic trajectories for the bilateral examination of the hands.METHODS: In thi…
Three systems for the localized heating of the spinal cord of the mouse have been evaluated by measuring the temperatures in the spinal canal (Tsp); at a reference location dorsal to the spine (Tdo), …
OBJECT: The gradient fields generated during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures have the potential to induce electrical current on implanted endocardial leads. Whether this current can result…
OBJECTIVE: This study was to determine if there was any temporomandibular joint (TMJ) indicator that was not statistically different in the controls but was with statistical difference between the bil…
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of glucoprivation, as induced by 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) administration, on lymphocyte mitogen reactivity in Sprague-Dawley rats. The results showed tha…
