Non-parametric Bayesian Models of Response Function in Dynamic Image Sequences [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Vision and Image Understanding, Volume 151, Pages 90-100, ISSN 1077-3142 (2016), 2015
Estimation of response functions is an important task in dynamic medical imaging. This task arises for example in dynamic renal scintigraphy, where impulse response or retention functions are estimated, or in functional magnetic resonance imaging where hemodynamic response functions are required.

Pitfalls of DualTracer 99m-Technetium (Tc) Pertechnetate and Sestamibi Scintigraphy before Parathyroidectomy: Between Primary-Hyperparathyroidism-Associated Parathyroid Tumour and Ectopic Thyroid Tissue

open access: yesMedicina, 2023
Diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) is based on blood assessments in terms of synchronous high calcium and PTH (parathormone), but further management, particularly parathyroid surgery that provides the disease cure in 95–99% of cases, requires

Development of the algorithm for differentiating bone metastases and trauma of the ribs in bone scintigraphy and demonstration of visual evidence of the algorithm -- Using only anterior bone scan view of thorax [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Background: Although there are many studies on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) models to medical imaging, there is no report of an AI model that determines the accumulation of ribs in bone metastases and trauma only using the anterior image of thorax of bone scintigraphy.

The tear turnover and tear clearance tests - a review [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Review of Medical Devices 2018, 15(3), 219-229, 2019
Introduction. The aim is to provide a summary of methods available for the assessment of tear turnover and tear clearance rates. The review defines tear clearance and tear turnover and describes their implication for ocular surface health. Additionally, it describes main types of techniques for measuring tear turnover, including fluorescein tear ...

Relating gastric scintigraphy and symptoms to motility capsule transit and pressure findings in suspected gastroparesis

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology and Motility, 2018
Wireless motility capsule (WMC) findings are incompletely defined in suspected gastroparesis. We aimed to characterize regional WMC transit and contractility in relation to scintigraphy, etiology, and symptoms in patients undergoing gastric emptying ...

Prognostic utility of the Perugini grading of 99mTc-DPD scintigraphy in transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis and its relationship with skeletal muscle and soft tissue amyloid

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal-Cardiovascular Imaging, 2017
Aims High-grade (Perugini grade 2 or 3) cardiac uptake on bone scintigraphy with 99mTechnetium labelled 3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanodicarboxylic acid (99mTc-DPD) has lately been confirmed to have high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity for cardiac ...

One‐lung ventilation in obese patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy for lung cancer

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 281-288, January 2023., 2023
What is the best strategy to obtain one‐lung ventilation (OLV) in obese patients scheduled for thoracoscopic lung resections? Double lumen tubes (DLTs), (i.e., Carlens tube, Robertshaw tube etc…) or single‐lumen tube (SLT) with bronchial blockers (i.e., Univent, EZ blockers etc…)?Obese group compared to the control group was associated with: (i) higher
