Mandatory multidisciplinary approach for the evaluation of the lymph node status in rectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Colorectal cancer is the third most frequently reported malignancy and also the third leading cancer-related cause of death worldwide. Lymph node evaluation, both preoperatively and postoperatively, represents an important aspect of the diagnosis and ...

Magnetic resonance elastography of abdomen [PDF]

open access: yesAbdominal Imaging, 2014
Many diseases cause substantial changes in the mechanical properties of tissue, and this provides motivation for developing methods to noninvasively assess the stiffness of tissue using imaging technology. Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) has emerged as a versatile MRI-based technique, based on direct visualization of propagating shear waves in ...

Magnetic resonance elastography: A review [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, 2010
AbstractMagnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a rapidly developing technology for quantitatively assessing the mechanical properties of tissue. The technology can be considered to be an imaging‐based counterpart to palpation, commonly used by physicians to diagnose and characterize diseases.

Usefulness of Different Imaging Modalities in Evaluation of Patients with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are becoming some of the major health problems in well-developed countries, together with the increasing prevalence of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and all of their ...

Imaging of Shear Waves Induced by Lorentz Force in Soft Tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study presents the first observation of elastic shear waves generated in soft solids using a dynamic electromagnetic field. The first and second experiments of this 5 study showed that Lorentz force can induce a displacement in a soft phantom and ...

Microscopic magnetic resonance elastography (μMRE) [PDF]

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2005
AbstractMagnetic resonance elastography (MRE) was extended to the microscopic scale to image low‐frequency acoustic shear waves (typically less than 1 kHz) in soft gels and soft biological tissues with high spatial resolution (34 μm × 34 μm × 500 μm).

Quantitative characterization of viscoelastic behavior in tissue-mimicking phantoms and ex vivo animal tissues. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Viscoelasticity of soft tissue is often related to pathology, and therefore, has become an important diagnostic indicator in the clinical assessment of suspect tissue.

Identifying nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients with active fibrosis by measuring extracellular matrix remodeling rates in tissue and blood. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Excess collagen synthesis (fibrogenesis) in the liver plays a causal role in the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods are needed to identify patients with more rapidly progressing disease and to demonstrate early response to ...
