Inter-study reproducibility of arterial spin labelling magnetic resonance imaging for measurement of renal perfusion in healthy volunteers at 3 Tesla [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Measurement of renal perfusion is a crucial part of measuring kidney function. Arterial spin labelling magnetic resonance imaging (ASL MRI) is a non-invasive method of measuring renal perfusion using magnetised blood as endogenous contrast ...

Neuroimaging as a selection tool and endpoint in preclinical and clinical trials [PDF]
, 2016 Standard imaging in acute stroke enables the exclusion of non-stroke structural CNS lesions and cerebral haemorrhage from clinical and pre-clinical ischaemic stroke trials. In this review, the potential benefit of imaging (e.g., angiography and penumbral

Computed Tomography Perfusion Imaging for the Diagnosis of Hepatic Alveolar Echinococcosis
Eurasian Journal of Medicine, 2019 Objective: Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a rare life-threatening parasitic infection. Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging has the potential to provide both quantitative and qualitative information about the tissue perfusion characteristics. The

Re-epithelialization of whole porcine kidneys with renal epithelial cells
Journal of Tissue Engineering, 2017 Decellularized porcine kidneys were recellularized with renal epithelial cells by three methods: perfusion through the vasculature under high pressure, perfusion through the ureter under high pressure, or perfusion through the ureter under moderate ...

Analyzing the human liver vascular architecture by combining vascular corrosion casting and micro-CT scanning: a feasibility study [PDF]
, 2014 Although a full understanding of the hepatic circulation is one of the keys to successfully perform liver surgery and to elucidate liver pathology, relatively little is known about the functional organization of the liver vasculature.

Lung Perfusion Scanning in Hepatic Cirrhosis [PDF]
BMJ, 1972 Abnormal lung perfusion scans using radioactive particles were found in five out of six cases of hepatic cirrhosis with arterial hypoxaemia. None had clinical evidence of cardiopulmonary disease or signs of pulmonary embolism on arteriography. The scan defects are probably caused by a disorder of the pulmonary microvasculature, which may show regional ...

Hyperglycaemia does not increase perfusion deficits after focal cerebral ischaemia in male Wistar rats [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Hyperglycaemia is associated with a worse outcome in acute ischaemic stroke patients; yet the pathophysiological mechanisms of hyperglycaemia-induced damage are poorly understood.

Tc99m Diphosphonate imaging: Giant cell tumours on MDP scanning
South African Journal of Radiology, 1996 Ten patients with histologically proven giant cell tumour (biopsy) were imaged with 3-phase bone scanning, using 99m Tc-MDP. The perfusion (Phase I) and uptake (Phase III) were compared to the normal contralateral side and the rest of the skeleton was ...
