New methods of removing debris and high-throughput counting of cyst nematode eggs extracted from field soil [PDF]
Plos One 2019, 2022 The soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, is the most damaging pathogen of soybeans in the United States. To assess the severity of nematode infestations in the field, SCN egg population densities are determined. Cysts (dead females) of the nematode must be extracted from soil samples and then ground to extract the eggs within.

Measurement of breast-tissue x-ray attenuation by spectral mammography: solid lesions [PDF]
Phys Med Biol, 61(7) (2016), 2021 Knowledge of x-ray attenuation is essential for developing and evaluating x-ray imaging technologies. For instance, techniques to distinguish between cysts and solid tumours at mammography screening would be highly desirable to reduce recalls, but the development requires knowledge of the x-ray attenuation for cysts and tumours.
