The relationship between myocardial perfusion scanning results, C-reactive protein to albumin ratio, systemic inflammatory response index and coronary angiographic findings [PDF]
Aim: We aimed to investigate whether C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) have an additional value in interpretation of myocardial perfusion scanning (MPS) results.

Relative Perfusion Differences between Parathyroid Adenomas and the Thyroid on Multiphase 4DCT
A multiphase 4DCT technique can be useful for the detection of parathyroid adenomas. Up to 16 different phases can be obtained without significant increase of exposure dose using wide beam axial scanning. This technique also allows for the calculation of

Comparison of Adaptive Optics Scanning Light Ophthalmoscopic Fluorescein Angiography and Offset Pinhole Imaging [PDF]
Recent advances to the adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscope (AOSLO) have enabled finer in vivo assessment of the human retinal microvasculature. AOSLO confocal reflectance imaging has been coupled with oral fluorescein angiography (FA), enabling

Stroke penumbra defined by an MRI-based oxygen challenge technique: 1. validation using [14C]2-deoxyglucose autoradiography [PDF]
Accurate identification of ischemic penumbra will improve stroke patient selection for reperfusion therapies and clinical trials. Current magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques have limitations and lack validation.
