OBJECTIVE Concerns about the radiation dose associated with CT scanning have led to a call for establishment of diagnostic reference levels. Self-complete surveys have been used extensively to gather this information, however, departmental Radiological Information System's/Picture Archive Communication Systems (RIS/PACS) also hold this information. We compared dosimetry derived from survey with...

Epiploic appendagitis is a rare condition resulting from an acute inflammation of an appendix epiploica. Epiploic appendagitis is frequently misdiagnosed as either acute appendicitis or acute diverticulitis, and the diagnosis is usually made during surgery. Epiploic appendagitis is a rare, self-limiting condition, which can be easily diagnosed with computed tomography (CT). Imaging with CT may ...

For α > −1, let Aα denote the corresponding weighted Bergman space of the unit ball. For any self-adjoint subset G ⊂ L∞, let T(G) denote the C∗−subalgebra of B(Aα) generated by {Tf : f ∈ G}. Let CT(G) denote the commutator ideal of T(G). It was showed by D. Suárez (in 2004 for n = 1) and by the author (in 2006 for all n ≥ 1) that CT(L∞) = T(L∞) in the case α = 0. In this paper we show that in t...

The present study is based on a teaching-module designed to introduce computational thinking (CT) pre-service teachers pursuing MA degrees at large-scale university in Ankara, Turkey. It aims explore Turkish teachers’ perceptions and integration of CT different disciplines through CT-based tasks. Pre- post-attitude questionnaires were administered before after the presentation module find out a...

Current measurement is a key part of the monitoring system for power transmission lines. Compared with conventional current sensor, distributed, self-powered and contactless sensor has great advantages safety reliability. By integrating sensing function energy harvesting transformer (CT), time-multiplexed wireless that can measure line presented in this paper. Two operating modes CT, including ...

Introduction Change talk (CT) and sustain talk (ST) are thought to reflect underlying motivation and be important mechanisms of behavior change (MOBCs). However, greater specificity and experimental rigor is needed to establish CT and ST as MOBCs. Testing the effects of self-directed language under laboratory conditions is one promising avenue. The current study presents a replication and exten...

intra-tumoral bleeding, rupture and thrombosis are common complications of hemangioma but spontaneous and self limited rupture and fever is a very rare presentation of hemangioma. this report is about a 38-year-old woman with sever abdominal pain and high fever came for evaluation. in us she had a liver mass of about 15 cm in left lobe with possibility of being hemangioma and, ct scan and mri c...
