Imaging and Imaging Guided Interventions in the Diagnosis and Management of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Review of Evidence
imaging (mainly CT and MR imaging) has a crucial role in the diagnosis and assessment of tumor response in patients with HCC and interventional therapies play a crucial role in the management of those who are not candidates for surgical therapies.
Prevalence of Congenital Coronary Artery Anomalies and Variants in 2697 Consecutive Patients Using 64 Detector Row Coronary CTAngiography
Based on the fact that coronary CT-angiography using MDCT can display different coronary anomalies, this study shows similar results to other reports on the subject
Primary diffuse large B cell non Hodgkin lymphoma of the cranial vault
Primary non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the cranial vault is extremely rare
Quantitative T2* magnetic resonance imaging for evaluation of iron deposition in the brain of β thalassemia patients
Serum ferritin and liver iron content may not be good indicators of brain iron deposition in patients with β thalassemia major.
The effects of voxel localization and time of echo on the diagnostic accuracy of cystic brain tumors in 3 tesla magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Selection of voxels with the guide of chemical shift imaging map yields to 100% diagnostic sensitivity. If not accessible, the use of the union of peripheral and central voxels enhances the sensitivity when compared to usage of peripheral or central voxels solely.
The Prospective Profile of Endovascular Coiling of Cerebral Aneurysms: The Impact of Clinical Presentation, Procedural Results, Aneurysm Rupture and Location
Selection of voxels with the guide of chemical shift imaging map yields to 100% diagnostic sensitivity. If not accessible, the use of the union of peripheral and central voxels enhances the sensitivity when compared to usage of peripheral or central voxels solely.
The relationship between enhanced plaques with Gadovist and Magnevist contrast brain magnetic resonance imaging and the neurological deficit in the acute phase of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis
both Magnevist and Gadovist could be used as the contrast material to detect enhancing plaques in relapse phase of multiple sclerosis
Ultrasonographic analysis versus histopathologic evaluation of carotid advanced atherosclerotic stenosis in an experimental rabbit model
The aim of this study was to generate an easily reproducible and inexpensive experimental rabbit carotid model of advanced atherosclerosis with morphological similarities to the human disease and the subsequent assessment of the reliability of B-mode ultrasound technology in the study of lumen area stenosis in this model
A multiscale phase field method for joint segmentation rigid registration Application to motion estimation of human knee joint
In this paper, a new approach of joint segmentation-rigid registration, within the variational framework of the phase field approximation of the Mumford-Shah's functional, is proposed.
