the aim of this review is focusing on the most important safety issues in cardiovascular mri (magnetic resonance imaging) which are categorized as: 1-safety items in patients who referred for stress cardiac mr studies. 2-safety consideration that we must know when a patient with cardiovascular devices referred for any (cardiovascular or non-cardiovascular) mri with focus on new protocols accord...

Introduction: Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a nanotechnology-assisted cancer hyperthermia approach in which the interaction between laser light and plasmonic nanoparticles generates a localized heating for thermoablation of the tumor. Recent efforts in the area of PTT follow two important aims: (i) exploitation of targeting strategies for preferential accumulation of plasmonic ...

symptomatic laryngeal chondrometaplasia is rare. to the best of our knowledge, there are only few case reports on laryngeal chondrometaplasia. the imaging appearance of this uncommon disease is even more rarely described. there are only two case reports describing its appearances in computed tomography (ct) and magnetic resonance imaging (mri). ultrasound (us) features have not been reported so...

Background: Glucose transporter (Glut), a cellular transmembrane receptor, has a key role in the metabolism of cell glucose and is also associated with various human carcinomas.Objective: In this study, we evaluated a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agent for tumor detection based on paramagnetic gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) coated polycyclodextrin (PCD) and mod...

conclusion both techniques provided quantitatively consistent results of in vivo velocity vector fields in right internal carotid artery (rca). pc mri represented a good estimation of main flow patterns inside the vasculature, which seems to be acceptable for clinical use. however, limitations of each technique should be considered while interpreting results. subjects and methods mr imaging was...

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...

in recent years, the development of neuroimaging techniques such as high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (mri), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri), positron emission tomography (pet), or single photon emission tomography (spect) has promoted the identification of structural and functional characteristics underlying mental disorders to a great extent. in anxiety disorders, recent...
