Introduction Quality control (QC) protocols are now routinely used on clinical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) devices. Most of the time, these QC procedures are manufacturer-specific, and then not useable for multicenter projects involving multiple MRI systems from different vendors on different sites. The aim of the work package 1 of the Grand Ouest Glioblastoma Project (GOGP) [1], a multice...

Perillyl alcohol (POH) is a naturally occurring monoterpene with antiangiogenic and anti-tumoral properties. This chemotherapeutic agent has proven effectiveness in several clinical trials, including an ongoing phase I, comprising patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiform (GBM) under treatment with POH by intranasal administration. Proteomics offers tools to distinguish states of biologica...

This paper presents a transportation spatio-temporal system that efficiently converts traffic video data into vehicular motion information in spatio-temporal databases for a variety of transportation applications. The proposed transportation spatio-temporal system interpolates the vehicle trajectory data (i.e., time, location, and speed), which are extracted from video, and integrates them with...

Imagine yourself in Orlando, Florida, or in Peoria, Illinois, sitting in a distance learning classroom or video conference center on a university campus, watching a live adaptation of Sophocles’ Antigone. In Orlando, Antigone (the character) is in the room with you as you watch a projection of King Creon. In Peoria, the projection shows Antigone, while King Creon is physically in the room with ...

Because of high heterogeneity and invasiveness, treatment of GlioBlastoma Multiform (GBM) still remains a complex challenge. Several recent advanced therapies have improved precision of treatment deliverance. Multimodality imaging plays an increasingly important role in this process and images segmentation has become an essential part of the pipeline of standard treatment planning system. With ...

 Primary and secondary malignant central nervous system (CNS) tumors are devastating invasive tumors able to give rise to many kinds of differentiated tumor cells. Glioblastoma multiform (GBM), is the most malignant brain tumor, in which its growth and persistence depend on cancer stem cells with enhanced DNA damage repair program that also induces recurrence and resists current chemo- and radi...

Robust and accurate detection of small moving targets in cluttered backgrounds is a significant challenging problem for robotic visual systems to perform search tracking tasks. Inspired by the neural circuitry elementary motion vision mammalian retina, this paper proposes bioinspired retinal network based on new neurodynamics-based temporal filtering multiform 2-D spatial Gabor filtering. This ...
