A parametric study was performed to design a device capable of treating small targeted regions within the prostate using high intensity focused ultrasound, while sparing the surrounding organs and minimizing the number of elements. The optimal focal length (L), operating frequency (f), element size (a) and central opening radius for lodging an imaging probe (r) of a device that would safely tre...

Time-space synaesthetes report that time units (e.g., months, days, hours) occupy idiosyncratic spatial locations. For the synaesthete (L), the months of the year are projected out in external space in the shape of a 'scoreboard 7', where January to July extend across the top from left to right and August to December make up the vertical segment from top to bottom. Interestingly, L can change t...

Fifteen right-handed patients with Multi-Infarct Dementia underwent cognitive testing by the Jacobs Mini-Mental Scale (MMQ), and xenon contrast CT scanning. Local cerebral blood flow (LCBF) and local partition coefficient (L lambda) values were measured by stable xenon contrast CT scanning and potential methodological errors were discussed. Reduced values were graded: 0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 = ...
