Neurovascular Contacts in the Pathophysiology of Neuralgic Amyotrophy: An Observational Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) is a prevalent, monophasic, multifocal immune‐mediated neuropathy. A distinctive characteristic of the disease is the occurrence of nerve or fascicle constrictions and torsions (NA‐associated focal nerve lesions, NAFL). The pathophysiology underlying this phenomenon remains to be fully elucidated.

Modelling and reconstructing the respiratory motion of the liver [PDF]

, 2013
Respiratory organ motion is a complicating factor in tumour treatment. For dose delivery, the aim is to obtain a possibly static target in the beam's eye view whenever the beam is on.

Bi‐ and Mono‐Allelic RFC1 Expansion in a North American Cohort With Idiopathic Axonal Neuropathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective RFC1 biallelic repeat expansion is increasingly recognized as a cause of chronic idiopathic axonal polyneuropathy (CIAP), but it remains challenging to know who to test. This study aims to determine the prevalence of biallelic and monoallelic RFC1 expansions and their corresponding neuropathy phenotypes in CIAP patients and identify ...

Respiration based steering for high intensity focused ultrasound liver ablation [PDF]

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2013
PurposeRespiratory motion makes hepatic ablation using high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFO) challenging. Previous HIFU liver treatment had required apnea induced during general anesthesia. We describe and test a system that allows treatment of the liver in the presence of breathing motion.MethodsMapping a signal from an external respiratory bellow ...

Hemorrhage Detection during Focused-Ultrasound Induced Blood-Brain- Barrier Opening by Using Susceptibility-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging

, 2009
High-intensity focused ultrasound has been discovered to be able to locally and reversibly increase the permeability of the blood–brain barrier (BBB), which can be detected using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI ).

Identifying predictive factors for efficacy in high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of benign thyroid nodules – a retrospective analysis

International Journal of Hyperthermia, 2020
Objective Since it is unclear whether clinical parameters can independently predict the subsequent treatment response following high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation of benign thyroid nodules, we aimed to examine clinical factors that may ...

Ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for hyperparathyroidism: current status and prospects

International Journal of Hyperthermia, 2022
Background Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is classified into primary HPT (PHPT), secondary HPT (SHPT), tertiary HPT (THPT), and pseudohyperparathyroidism. Parathyroid surgery is generally reserved for patients with symptomatic PHPT and asymptomatic patients ...

Microstructural Evolution and Vacancy Defect Formation in Mn–Mo–Ni RPV Steel Under Low Cycle Fatigue: Insights From EBSD and PALS

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐cycle fatigue damage in Mn–Mo–Ni reactor pressure vessel steel is examined using a combined electron backscatter diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy approach. The study correlates texture evolution, dislocation substructure development, and vacancy‐type defect formation across uniform, necked, and fracture regions, providing

Thermal ablation in pancreatic cancer: A scoping review of clinical studies

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
BackgroundPancreatic cancer is a deadly cancer with a 5-year survival rate less than 10%. Only 20% of patients are eligible to receive surgery at diagnosis. Hence, new therapies are needed to improve outcomes for non-surgical candidates. Thermal ablation
