Usefulness of SPECT/CT to Detect Residual Thyroid Differentiated Carcinoma after Radioablation [PDF]

In the absence of distant metastasis after total thyroidectomy for differentiated thyroid cancer, 131I ablation with a dose of 30 mCi is performed. However, a single dose of 131I is not always sufficient, and re-dosing is becoming increasingly common ...

Impact of incomplete ventricular coverage on diagnostic performance of myocardial perfusion imaging. [PDF]

, 2017
In the context of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), there is ongoing debate on the merits of using technically complex acquisition methods to achieve whole-heart spatial coverage, rather than conventional 3-slice ...

Mechanical Properties of Architected Polymer Lattice Materials: A Comparative Study of Additive Manufacturing and CAD Using FEM and µ‐CT

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how pore shape and manufacturing‐induced deviations affect the mechanical properties of 3D‐printed lattice materials with constant porosity. Combining µ‐CT analysis, FEM, and compression testing, the authors show that structural imperfections reduce stiffness and strength, while bulk material inhomogeneities probably enhance ...

Defects Dynamic in Photo‐Excited CeO2 and their Influence on CO2 Photoreduction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy study under light excitation is presented to track the defect dynamic (Ce4+ to Ce3+) in CeO2. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy confirmed the key role of Ce3+ states in controlling charge and energy transfer across the CeO2‐dye molecule interface.

Single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography imaging of RAGE in smoking-induced lung injury

Respiratory Research, 2019
Background Expression of the Receptor for Advanced Glycation Endproducts (RAGE) initiates pro-inflammatory pathways resulting in lung destruction. We hypothesized that RAGE directed imaging demonstrates increased lung uptake in smoke-exposure.

Role of brain perfusion SPECT with 99mTc HMPAO in the assessment of response to drug therapy in patients with autoimmune vasculitis: a prospective study [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of vasculitis in the brain remains a quite difficult achievement. To the best of our knowledge, there is no imaging method reported in literature which is capable of reaching to a diagnosis of vasculitis with very high ...
