Quantifying Cross-scatter Contamination in Biplane Fluoroscopy Motion Analysis Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Biplane fluoroscopy is used for dynamic in vivo three-dimensional motion analysis of various joints of the body. Cross-scatter between the two fluoroscopy systems may limit tracking accuracy. This study measured the magnitude and effects of cross-scatter

Analysis of a Flexible Dual-Channel Octagonal Coil System for UHF MRI

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Nowadays, MRI is focused on using ultra-high static magnetic fields (>7 T) to increase the signal-to-noise ratio. The use of high fields, on the other hand, requires novel technical solutions as well as more stringent design criteria for specific ...

The impact of vaporized nanoemulsions on ultrasound-mediated ablation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The clinical feasibility of using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for ablation of solid tumors is limited by the high acoustic pressures and long treatment times required.
