Right upper quadrant abdominal pain may be due to many causes, and at times may give rise to diagnostic dilemma. We present here a young lady with biliary type of pain who was eventually found to have gall bladder agenesis with aerobilia, in the absence of prior biliary intervention.

Constraints on Scalar Phantoms
We update the constraints on the minimal model of dark matter, where a stable real scalar field is added to the standard model Lagrangian with a renormalizable coupling to the Higgs field.

Phantom hCG and Phantom Choriocarcinoma
Phantom hCG and phantom choriocarcinoma syndrome (pseudohypergonadotropinemia) refers to persistent mild elevations of hCG, leading physicians to treat patients with cytotoxic chemotherapy for choriocarcinoma when in reality no true hCG or trophoblast disease is present. We report here three cases of the phantom hCG and phantom choriocarcinoma syndrome

Feasibility of MV CBCT-based treatment planning for urgent radiation therapy: dosimetric accuracy of MV CBCT-based dose calculations. [PDF]
Unlike scheduled radiotherapy treatments, treatment planning time and resources are limited for emergency treatments. Consequently, plans are often simple 2D image-based treatments that lag behind technical capabilities available for nonurgent ...

A feasible and automatic free tool for T1 and ECV mapping [PDF]
Purpose: Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a useful non-invasive tool for characterizing tissues and detecting myocardial fibrosis and edema. Estimation of extracellular volume fraction (ECV) using T1 sequences is emerging as an accurate biomarker in ...

Complementary Phenomena: Phantom Hand and Phantom Face
After tissue or limb loss, the development of sensation and perception of the lost or deafferent tissue is defined as a phantom phenomenon. We investigated the presence of phantom phenomena in individuals who underwent a full face transplant as well as those who had a hand transplant.

The phantom menace in representation theory [PDF]
Our principal goal in this overview is to explain and motivate the concept of a phantom in the representation theory of a finite dimensional algebra $\Lambda$.

Passive element enriched photoacoustic computed tomography (PER PACT) for simultaneous imaging of acoustic propagation properties and light absorption\ud [PDF]
We present a ‘hybrid’ imaging approach which can image both light absorption properties and acoustic transmission properties of an object in a two-dimensional slice using a computed tomography (CT) photoacoustic imager.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Spherical deconvolution of multichannel diffusion MRI data with non-Gaussian noise models and spatial regularization [PDF]
Spherical deconvolution (SD) methods are widely used to estimate the intra-voxel white-matter fiber orientations from diffusion MRI data. However, while some of these methods assume a zero-mean Gaussian distribution for the underlying noise, its real ...
