FIG. 1. Centrality dependence of the nuclear modification factor for the combined (1S+2S+3S) yield in Au-Au at RHIC (upper panels) and for the (1S) in Pb-Pb at LHC, compared to STAR [5] and CMS [6] data. Left and right panels correspond to the strongand weak-binding scenarios, respectively. The green bands indicate uncertainties in pre-equilibrium nuclear absorption and shadowing effects. Bot...

Fig. 3: Radiological readings of the 4 methods: (a) SENSE recon (black); (b) adaptive combine with Gaussian filter (red); (c) unwrap and Gaussian filter (green); (d) adaptive combine with homodyne filter (blue). Horizontal axis is the filter width (1-3 mm from left to right for methods a-c; 192-64 pixels (kspace) for method d). The best image quality were methods (a) and (b) with a filter betwe...

Fig.1 The peculiar behaviour of ADC and T2* measured values in the calcaneus spongy bone as function of Marrow fat content percentage (Mfc%). Their linear correlations (R coefficient), and their functional linear dependency y(x) are also showed. Blue diamonds indicate Healthy subjects, green squares indicate Osteopenic subjects and red triangles indicate Osteoporotic ones. MR Multi-parametric a...

Fig. 2 Uncorrected (black) and corrected (blue) navigator signal of an MP-RAGE measurement. Head position was changed during the period marked violet. The green bars show motion threshold at that moment, red points mark motion-corrupted TRs, which are rescanned at the end (pink bar). Cyan shows the online regression time course. Real-time Motion Detection for Structural Brain Imaging Using Mult...

FP HP Nose Barrel Fig 1.Visualization of soma – totopic maps in the rat S1 cortex. S1 subdivisions of forepaw (FP, yellow), hindpaw (HP, green), barrel (Barrel, purple), and nose (Nose, red) are represented in 2D coronal t-maps (A) and 3D contour (B), which is in an excellent agreement with the somatotopic maps established by electrophysiology (inset) [4]. Functional MRI of Somatosensory Cortic...

Fig. 1. Behavior of condensates on smooth surfaces and within pores. The surface wettability determines the contact angle θ and the curvature of a liquid condensate on a smooth surface (A) and within a pore (B), where θ and the pore diameter strongly affect the liquid’s vapor pressure (C), here for the case of liquid water. Capillary condensation of a liquid (red) and subsequent crystal (green)...

Whole-body optical imaging is an external and noninvasive procedure that enables the continuous visual monitoring of malignant growth and spread within intact animals. The human colon adenocarcinoma cell-line HCT-15 was transfected with a pIRES 2-EGFP vector, and stable enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP) expression was established (Fig.1). Approximately 10(6) HCT-15 EGFP stable transfec...

cirrhosis was hospitalized in our department for transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for the recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma with biliary invasion. She had undergone radiofrequency ablation (RFA) therapy 1 year earlier. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed a 15-mm hypervascular tumor in the common hepatic duct adjacent to the area previously treated with RFA (●" Fig. 1). ...
