TEF and RTEF-1 Binding to the Smooth Muscle -Actin Gene Distinguishes Myofibroblasts and Adult Smooth Muscle Cells Adult smooth muscle cells are highly plastic and can exhibit a range of phenotypes in response to different environmental and developmental cues. Their phenotypes can range from quiescent highly contractile cells with high levels of characteristic contractile protein isoforms, to h...

MCAT--a multimedia cardiac angiogram tool.

In this article, we present the prototype of the Multimedia Cardiac Angiogram Tool (MCAT). The MCAT provides capabilities for reviewing angiograms recorded at a cardiac catheterization laboratory. A doctor can use MCAT to annotate angiograms with audio, text, and graphics. He/she can selectively package the annotated multimedia angiograms into a document, save it as the record for the visit or ...

Modeling Respiratory Mechanics in the MCAT and Spline-Based MCAT Phantoms

Respiratory motion can cause artifacts in myocardial SPECT. We incorporate respiratory mechanics into the current 4D MCAT and into the next generation spline-based MCAT phantoms. In order to simulate respiratory motion in the current MCAT phantom, the geometric solids for the diaphragm, heart, ribs, and lungs were altered through manipulation of parameters defining them. Affine transformations ...
