In in vivo 1H-MRSI studies of the prostate, diminutive matrix sizes can engender voxel bleeding, encompassing regions distant from the voxel, thereby disseminating the signal of interest beyond the voxel's confines and integrating extra-prostatic residual lipid signals within the prostate's spectrum....
After your one-year follow-up visit, it is important to continue to attend annual check-ups with an eye care provider. These appointments will include a dilated retinal exam to monitor the positioning of the lens inside the eye and the overall health of the eye, including the back of the...
