Quantification of partial volume effects in planar imaging
Introduction: The limited resolution of the imaging system causes partial volume effects (PVEs). These results in spreading of image counts to the neighboring pixels. This phenomenon is called spill-out effect. This study aimed at quantifying PVEs using ImageJ. Methods:Technetium-99m solution of concentration of 74 kBq/ml was filled into spheres A, B<...
متن کاملValidation of Fat Volume Quantification with IDEAL MRI
Introduction: The increasing prevalence of obesity has led to the recognition of new clinical entities, including the metabolic syndrome (MetS). MetS is defined as a combination of phenotypes that increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular endpoints and death from all causes. Amongst other things, MetS is characterized by dysglycemia, dyslipidemia, increased blood pressure,...
متن کاملShunt Detection and Quantification
Detection, localization, and quantification of intracardiac shunts are an integral* part of the hemodynamic evaluation of patients with congenital heart disease. In most cases, an intracardiac shunt is suspected on the basis of the clinical evaluation of the patient before catheterization. There are several circumstances, however, in which data obtained at catheterization should alert the cardi...
متن کاملVolume-targeted ventilation of newborns.
Traditional management of neonatal respiratory failure has been accomplished with mechanical ventilation delivered by time-cycled, pressure-limited techniques. Although easy to use, this modality results in the delivery of tidal volumes that vary according to pulmonary compliance. In contrast, volume-targeted ventilation delivers a selected tidal volume at variable peak inspiratory pressure, re...
متن کاملComparison of Effect of Prone and Right Lateral Positions on Gastric Residual Volume in Preterm Newborns
Background: Nutritional problems in premature newborns are of great importance for their development. In this regard, the neonatal positioning during and after feeding can have a significant effect on their nutritional tolerance. Therefore, the present study was conducted to compare the effect of two positions (i.e., prone and right lateral) on gastric residual volume ...
