Use of a clinical PET/CT scanner for whole body biodistribution of intranasal nanoparticles [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Whole body biodistribution of 100 nanometer sized polymer micellar nanoparticles (NPs) was determined following intranasal administration using PET/CT imaging on a clinical scanner. Nanoparticles labeled with Zirconium 89 were administered intranasally or intravenously to Sprague Dawley rats followed by serial ex vivo PET/CT imaging in a clinical ...

Deep-Tissue Anatomical Imaging of Mice Using Carbon Nanotube Fluorophores in the Second Near Infrared Window [PDF]
, 2011 Fluorescent imaging in the second near infrared window (NIR II, 1-1.4 {\mu}m) holds much promise due to minimal autofluorescence and tissue scattering. Here, using well functionalized biocompatible single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) as NIR II fluorescent imaging agents, we performed high frame rate video imaging of mice during intravenous injection

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The aging of the world population gave rise to an increased prevalence of many lung diseases, with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease now ranking as the third‐leading cause of death according to the World Health Organization. To diagnose lung disease, a thorough assessment of lung function is essential since it may reveal unique signatures ...

Hysteresis in anesthesia and recovery: Experimental observation and dynamical mechanism [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The dynamical mechanism underlying the processes of anesthesia-induced loss of consciousness and recovery is key to gaining insights into the working of the nervous system. Previous experiments revealed an asymmetry between neural signals during the anesthesia and recovery processes.

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis poses a major challenge as contemporary nonsurgical treatments show dissatisfactory results and mucosal flap surgery is often needed. Diode lasers can remove granulation tissue and submucosal bacteria, and if it achieves similar clinical results, then it could be used as a less invasive first approach.

Prediction of Individual Propofol Requirements based on Preoperative EEG Signals [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The patient must be given an adequate amount of propofol for safe surgery since overcapacity and low capacity cause accidents. However, the sensitivity of propofol varies from patient to patient, making it very difficult to determine the propofol requirements for anesthesia.

Controlling the Error on Target Motion through Real-time Mesh Adaptation: Applications to Deep Brain Stimulation [PDF]
, 2017 We present an error-controlled mesh refinement procedure for needle insertion simulation and apply it to the simulation of electrode implantation for deep brain stimulation, including brain shift. Our approach enables to control the error in the computation of the displacement and stress fields around the needle tip and needle shaft by suitably ...

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background The objective of this study is to assess the possible association between intraoperative anesthesia team handovers and increased 90‐day major complications following HPB surgery. Methods This is a single‐center retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent HPB surgery.

Disparities in Breast Reconstruction After Mastectomy in Southeast Asia: A Systematic Review
Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in Southeast Asia. However, significant disparities in access to postmastectomy breast reconstruction persist due to cultural, economic, and healthcare‐related factors. These disparities result in unequal access to care, impacting patient outcomes, and overall quality of life.
