متن کاملGlandular dose in breast computed tomography with synchrotron radiation.
The purpose of this work is to provide an evaluation of the mean glandular dose (MGD) for breast computed tomography (CT) with synchrotron radiation in an axial scanning configuration with a partial or total organ volume irradiation, for the in vivo program of breast CT ongoing at the ELETTRA facility (Trieste, Italy). A Geant4 Monte Carlo code was implemented, simulating the photon irradiation...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Imaging of Hepatic Sinusoids in Mice Using Synchrotron Radiation Micro-Computed Tomography
Hepatic sinusoid, the smallest vessel in the liver, plays important roles in hepatic microcirculation. Although the structure of the hepatic sinusoids affects diverse functions of the liver, little is known about morphological alterations in the sinusoids under pathological conditions. In this study, we show that the structure of hepatic sinusoids can be identified three-dimensionally in normal...
متن کاملThree-dimensional characterization of cell clusters using synchrotron-radiation-based micro-computed tomography.
Micro-computed tomography with the highly intense, monochromatic X rays produced by the synchrotron is a superior method to nondestructively measure the local absorption in three-dimensional space. Because biological tissues and cells consist mainly of water as the surrounding medium, higher absorbing agents have to be incorporated into the structures of interest. Even without X-ray optics such...
متن کاملFluorescent X-Ray Computed Tomography Using Synchrotron Radiation Towards Molecular Imaging
Presently, nuclear imaging techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET), and single photon emission CT (SPECT) are quite vital tools in clinical medicine as molecular imaging modalities to investigate the cause, diagnosis and therapy of diseases, e.g., Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy and cancer, from the viewpoint of molecule. On the oth...
