Combined Micro-PET/Micro-CT Imaging of Lung Tumours in SPC-raf and SPC-myc Transgenic Mice
INTRODUCTION SPC-raf and SPC-myc transgenic mice develop disseminated and circumscribed lung adenocarcinoma respectively, allowing for assessment of carcinogenesis and treatment strategies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the technical feasibility, the correlation of initial findings to histology and the administered radiation dose of combined micro-PET/micro-CT in these animal mod...
متن کاملLung tumour growth kinetics in SPC-c-Raf-1-BB transgenic mice assessed by longitudinal in-vivo micro-CT quantification
BACKGROUND SPC-c-Raf-1-BxB transgenic mice develop genetically induced disseminated lung adenocarcinoma allowing examination of carcinogenesis and evaluation of novel treatment strategies. We report on assessment of lung tumour growth kinetics using a semiautomated region growing segmentation algorithm. METHODS 156 non contrast-enhanced respiratory gated micro-CT of the lungs were obtained in...
متن کاملIn vivo microCT quantification of lung tumor growth in SPC-raf transgenic mice.
Lung cancer is the most common cancer worldwide. Early detection might reduce morbidity. In this study we evaluate a microCT imaging algorithm to assess in-vivo tumour load and quantification of tumour growth in a transgenic disease model of lung adenocarcinomas. MicroCT was carried out with n=10 SPC-raf transgenic mice without gating in spontaneously breathing and isoflurane anaesthetised anim...
متن کاملEffective implementation of SPC
Statistical process control (SPC) is an approach to process control that has been widely used in any industrial or non-industrial fields. SPC is based on so called Shewhart ́s conception of the process variability. This conception distinguishes variability caused by obviously effected common causes (process is considered to be statistically stable) from variability caused by abnormal assignable ...
متن کاملTurbo-SPC codes
—This letter is concerned with a family of modified turbo-type codes, referred to as turbo-SPC (single parity check) codes. A technique based on the SPC code is introduced to replace puncturing for rate adjustment. A noticeable feature of the proposed scheme is the significantly reduced decoding complexity compared with the standard punctured turbo code. The cost reduction factor becomes more n...
