the use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach
abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولDiffusion Weighted Imaging of Prostate and Rectal Wall: Comparison of Biexponential and Monoexponential Modelled Diffusion Coefficients
Diffusion weighted (DW) MRI is increasingly being used to identify prostate cancer, in particular to delineate tumors within the central gland where T2-W imaging has poor contrast between benign and malignant nodules. Quantitation using Apparent Diffusion Coefficients (ADC) usually entails monoexponential fitting of the DW data and does not account for the contribution from intravoxel incoheren...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Optimal Experiment Design for Monoexponential Model Fitting: Application to Apparent Diffusion Coefficient Imaging.
The monoexponential model is widely used in quantitative biomedical imaging. Notable applications include apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) imaging and pharmacokinetics. The application of ADC imaging to the detection of malignant tissue has in turn prompted several studies concerning optimal experiment design for monoexponential model fitting. In this paper, we propose a new experiment desi...
متن کاملComparison of apparent diffusion coefficients and distributed diffusion coefficients in high-grade gliomas.
PURPOSE To compare apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) with distributed diffusion coefficients (DDCs) in high-grade gliomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty patients with high-grade gliomas prospectively underwent diffusion-weighted MRI. Traditional ADC maps were created using b-values of 0 and 1000 s/mm(2). In addition, DDC maps were created by applying the stretched-exponential model using ...
