OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the difference of liver function changes according to the liver regeneration rate after liver transplantation through blood tests. METHODS Fifty donors, who underwent computed tomography (CT) 3D volumetry, were analyzed before and after liver transplantation. CT 3D volumetry was used as a study method to measure the mean liver regeneration v...

In nuclear medicine, radioiodine therapy is prescribed to treat diseases like hyperthyroidism. The calculation of the dose depends, amongst other factors, on thyroid volume. This currently estimated using conventional 2D ultrasound imaging. However, this modality inherently user-dependant, resulting in high variability volume estimations. To increase reproducibility and consistency, we uniquely...

The analysis of building characteristics indicates that there are some uncertainties influencing its energy performance: Environment, volumetry or operating conditions. It is important to have a low-cost system performs this and management by optimizing the coupling between production consumption. Knowing relationship annual thermal needs with different construction parameters can help define a...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the significance of liver volumetry as a parameter for hepatic functional reserve in cirrhotic patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Liver volume was calculated from preoperative computed tomograms of 44 cirrhotic patients who underwent elective hepatic resections for hepatocellular carcinoma. The liver volume per body weight of non-alcoholic cirrhoti...

Abstract Background Temporal lobe epilepsy is the most common type of focal onset seizure. Focal seizure with impaired awareness, previously known as complex partial (CPS), account for 18–40% all types. Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) cause temporal epilepsy, which produces awareness. It may be detected in MRI visually, but bilateral abnormalities are better identified using volumetric analysis. We ...
