Although MRI of phosphorylated metabolites and positron emission tomography (PET) of metabolic activity (to assess glucose utilization) can be used to assess tissue viability, an alternative method of equal, if not better, clinical value consists of using MRI with contrast to identify retention of ...
X-ray computed tomography (CT) has an important role in precision medicine. However, CT contrast agents with high efficiency and the ability to translate diagnostic accuracy into therapeutic intervention are scarce. Here, poly(diiododiacetylene) (PIDA), a conjugated polymer composed of only carbon ...
A total of 187 cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of mandibles, namely, 100 images of dentate mandibles and 87 images of edentulous mandibles, were obtained. CBCT data related to the incisive canal and mental canal were analyzed by one examiner. Results The prevalence of the MIC wa...
In nuclear medicine, computed tomography (CT) is used with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) to improve the quantification of functional imaging by correcting for attenuation, scatter, and partial volume effects and combinedly called SPECT-CT and...
