Role of peripheral quantitative computed tomography in identifying disuse osteoporosis in paraplegia [PDF]
, 2009 Objective: Disuse osteoporosis is a major long-term health consequence of spinal cord injury (SCI) that still needs to be addressed. Its management in SCI should begin with accurate diagnosis, followed by targeted treatments in the most vulnerable ...

Ga/Lu-labeled DOTA-TATE shows similar imaging and biodistribution in neuroendocrine tumor model
Tumor Biology, 2017 Somatostatin receptors are overexpressed in neuroendocrine tumors, whose endogenous ligands are somatostatin. DOTA-TATE is an analogue of somatostatin, which shows high binding affinity to somatostatin receptors.

Detailed atmospheric ice accretion surface measurement using micro‐computed tomography
Atmospheric Science Letters, 2020 Surfaces exposed to atmospheric cold temperature and humid environments are prone to ice accretion. Airplanes, electrical power transmission cables, and wind turbines are typical examples for which icing has to be considered.

Micro-computed tomography analysis of the lumbar pedicle wall.
PLoS ONE, 2021 BackgroundAlthough the pedicle is routinely used as a surgical fixation site, the pedicle wall bone area fraction (bone area per unit area) and its distribution at the isthmus of the pedicle remain unknown.

Computed tomography-osteoabsorptiometry for assessing the density distribution of subchondral bone as a measure of long-term mechanical adaptation in individual joints [PDF]
, 1989 To estimate subchondral mineralisation patterns which represent the long-term loading history of individual joints, a method has been developed employing computed tomography (CT) which permits repeated examination of living joints.

Micro-computed tomography shows silent bubbles in squeaky mozzarella
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2023 The sound of food is of influence on how its flavour is perceived. Although rarely studied in psychoacoustics, cheese may have a resonating internal structure in the audible spectrum.
