Dcf1 Deficiency Attenuates the Role of Activated Microglia During Neuroinflammation
Microglia serve as the principal immune cells and play crucial roles in the central nervous system, responding to neuroinflammation via migration and the execution of phagocytosis. Dendritic cell-derived factor 1 (Dcf1) is known to play an important role

Positron emission tomography compartmental models: A basis pursuit strategy for kinetic modelling
A kinetic modelling approach for the quantification of in vivo tracer studies with dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) is presented. The approach is based on a general compartmental description of the tracer’s fate in vivo and determines a ...

Preoperative nodal staging of non-small cell lung cancer using 99mTc-sestamibi spect/ct imaging
OBJECTIVES: The proper nodal staging of non-small cell lung cancer is important for choosing the best treatment modality. Although computed tomography remains the first-line imaging test for the primary staging of lung cancer, its limitations for ...

Statistical analysis of maximum likelihood estimator images of human brain FDG PET studies [PDF]
The work presented evaluates the statistical characteristics of regional bias and expected error in reconstructions of real positron emission tomography (PET) data of human brain fluoro-deoxiglucose (FDG) studies carried out by the maximum likelihood ...
