Increased accuracy of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion scintigraphy using iterative reconstruction of images [PDF]
Background/Aim. Filtered back projection (FBP) is a common way of processing myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) studies. There are artifacts in FBP which can cause falsepositive results. Iterative reconstruction (IR) is developed to reduce false

Abstract Background The rectosigmoid brake, characterised by retrograde cyclic motor patterns on high‐resolution colonic manometry, has been postulated as a contributor to the maintenance of bowel continence. Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is an effective therapy for faecal incontinence, but its mechanism of action is unclear.
