Modification of ITU-R P.1411 model to enhance the prediction accuracy in urban environments having variable heights of buildings is proposed in this paper by introducing two kinds of novel correction factors. One is considering the relationship of the highest building height and the transmitter (Tx) antenna height, and the other is considering the effect of receiver (Rx) position on crossroads....

The displacement of the right coronary artery (RCA) origin with respiratory position was determined relative to the dome of the right hemidiaphragm in three orthogonal directions in eight healthy subjects. Both multiple breath-hold and free-breathing acquisitions were used, and motion correction factors for slice-following applications were determined. The correction factors for all three direc...

diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis can be confirmed based on clinical and/or radiological features. the potential of a progressive disease can be prevented or decreased by earlier recognition and correction of associated factors. obesity and alignment especially varus malalignment are recognized factors of a progressive disease. both nonpharmalogical as well as pharmacological modalities of treat...

introduction:surgeosight is a dedicated intra-operative hand-held gamma camera designed and manufactured by our team to be used for lymphoscintigraphy. although conventional gamma cameras are widely used, they lack the capability of the sentinel lymph node (sln) imaging in the operation room. like conventional gamma cameras it is necessary to calibrate surgeosight for linearity distortion, ener...

Bartlett correction factors for likelihood ratio tests of parameters in conditional and unconditional logistic regression models are calculated. The resulting tests are compared to the Wald, likelihood ratio, and score tests, and a test proposed by Moolgavkar and Venzon in Modern Statistical Methods in Chronic Disease Epidemiology, (Wiley, New York, 1986).

Abatrati-An analysis is presented of a binary film with fog formation and a negligible induced velocity (traditionally referred to as “Stefan-Nusselt flow”). The governing equations of energy and diffusion, coupled with the saturation con@on, are solved and analytical correction factors are derived. Subsequently, the “negligible induced velocity” (NIV) fog film model is applied to channel flow,...
