the purpose of this study was to investigate magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of the normal feline eyeand optic nerves using t1-weighted and t2-weighted images. a total of 6 healthy female domestic short haircats age 2-2.5 years and weighing 3.2 ± 0.4 kg were selected. magnetic resonance imaging data werecollected using gemsow (philips) at a magnetic field strength of 1.5 t. dorsal, sagittal, a...

Study of the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of glyoxaldihydrazone in dimethylsulfoxide and deuterochlorofonn leads to the conclusion that this compound exists predominantly in non-chelate structure

nowadays, scientific c findings in the field of regeneration of nervous system have revealed the possibility of stem cell based therapies for damaged brain tissue related disorders like stroke. furthermore, to achieve desirable outcomes from cellular therapies, one needs to monitor the migration, engraftment, viability, and also functional fate of transplanted stem cells. magnetic resonance ima...

Atomic magnetometers have found widespread applications in precise measurement of the Earth’s magnetic field due to their high sensitivity. In these measurements, various methods have been utilized to compensate the Earth’s magnetic field in an unshielded environment. In this paper, we have proposed a method based on finding the minimum resonance frequency (corresponding to minimum magnetic fie...

background and purpose: disc herniation leading to radiculopathy is one of the important differential diagnosis of low back pain which needs specific medical care. radiculopathies can be initially diagnosed by history taking and physical examination. however role of other diagnostic methods like magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and electromyography (emg) in narrowing differential diagnosis is w...

purpose: to record the mri features of primary central nervous system lymphoma (pcnsl) and compare these properties in monofocal and multifocal disease. methods: eleven cases of monofocal disease were compared to 9 cases of multifocal disease. all patients were examined by non-enhanced and contrast-enhanced mri. tumor location, signal intensity, enhancement characteristics, age distribution, pe...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is a chronic inflammatory disease that leads to degeneration of the brain and spinal tissue. imbalances of cd4+ t cells including thelper1 (th1)/thelper2 (th2) and thelper17 (th17)/tregulatory (treg), their secreted cytokines and gene expressions, are important aspects of in immunopathogenesis of ms. vitamin a and its metabolites can regulate the immune system and appear...

background iron-loaded cardiac complication is the essential cause of mortality in patients with thalassemia. early detection and treatment of cardiac over-load can reduce mortality. objectives the current study aimed to evaluate the relationship between serum ferritin levels and t2* magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of heart and liver and liver iron concentration (lic) to diagnose iron over loa...

background: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the dependency of magica polymer gel dosimeter response (r2) on different electron energies as well as on different mean dose rate for a standard clinically used linear accelerator. materials and methods: the sensitivity of the dosimeter was represented by the slope of calibration curve in the linear region measured for each modality. a cali...
