4D PET: Beyond conventional dynamic PET imaging
In this paper, we review novel techniques in the emerging field of spatiotemporal 4D PET imaging. We will discuss existing limitations in conventional dynamic PET imaging which involves independent reconstruction of dynamic PET datasets. Various approaches that seek to attempt some or all of these limitations are reviewed in this work, including techniques that util...
متن کاملEvaluation of methods of co-segmentation on PET/CT images of lung tumor: simulation study
Introduction: Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Nowadays PET/CT plays an essential role in radiotherapy planning specially for lung tumors as it provides anatomical and functional information simultaneously that is effective in accurate tumor delineation. The optimal segmentation method has not been introduced yet, however several ...
متن کاملIssues pertaining to PET imaging of liver cancer
Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging using 2-deoxy-2-[F-18]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) has proven valuable in the diagnosis, staging and restaging for many cancers. However, its application for liver cancer has remained limited owing in part to the relatively high background uptake of the tracer in the liver plus the significant variability of the tumor specific uptake in liver cancer among pa...

چکیده: بررسی ادبیات مربوطه در کشور در زمینه یادگیری زبان انگلیسی نشان میدهد که علیرغم اهمیت املا در فرآیند یادگیری به طور عام و یادگیری زبان انگلیسی به طور خاص، این مولفه از جایگاهی متناسب با اهمیت آن برخوردار نیست و عمدتاً نادیده گرفته شده است. تحقیقات گستردهای در خارج از کشور در مورد ماهیت این مولفه صورت گرفته است، در حالی که به جرأت میتوان گفت در داخل کشور گامی در مورد درک ماهیت آن و فرآی...
15 صفحه اولIn Vivo Imaging of Schistosomes to Assess Disease Burden Using Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
BACKGROUND Schistosomes are chronic intravascular helminth parasites of humans causing a heavy burden of disease worldwide. Diagnosis of schistosomiasis currently requires the detection of schistosome eggs in the feces and urine of infected individuals. This method unreliably measures disease burden due to poor sensitivity and wide variances in egg shedding. In vivo imaging of schistosome paras...
