High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), a minimally invasive therapy for uterine fibroids, can effectively and safely relieve the patient’s clinical symptoms [5,6,7]. The non-perfused volume ratio (NPVR) after HIFU ablation is an evaluation criterion for the success of HIFU ablation of ...
Who can safely evade a magnetic resonance imaging fusion-targeted biopsy (MRIFTB) for prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) 3 lesion? Article 21 July 2020 Introduction The multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) diagnostic pathway followed by a MRI/Ultrasound (MRI/US)...
Non-clinical testing has demonstrated the Express LD Stent in single and overlapped conditions is MR Conditional. Itcan be scanned safely, immediately after placement of this implant, under the following conditions: • Static magnetic field of 1.5 Tesla or 3.0 Tesla. Can I have an MRI with a...
study whether thigh fat fraction was able to differentiate between symptomatic and asymptomatic Pompe patients with high sensitivity and specificity. The results of all statistical studies were considered significant if P was lower than 0.05. Statistical studies were performed using IBM SPSS® Statistics...
A cine-MRI gating protocol will be performed on PTV2 or PTV3, setting a 5% region of interest (ROI) value in a 3 mm boundary from the CTV2 or CTV3, therefore ensuring that the target volumes are always in the expected position. Delay time value is set at 0 s, so that the movemen...
Second, our model requires as inputs only tumor ROIs with bounding boxes instead of the exact tumor segmentation, which renders it easier for clinical implementation because tumor segmentation is often performed manually by trained experts and can be subjective and labor-intensive. Third, instead of...
the SC heater had to be tested to ensure that the magnet could be safely taken off field. Hence, a quench test was performed at 0.75 T during the initial ramp-down trial. Using the 3 T quench system, the field strength could be reduced to a value below 10 mT within 2 min as compar...
to explore the relationship between BCSFB function and ventricular morphology. Finally, we provide proof of application to the human brain. Our findings position the BCSFB as a promising new diagnostic and therapeutic target, the function of which can now be safely quantified using non-invasive ...
BpMRI Imaging was performed on a 3 T MRI system (Verio, Siemens, Erlangen, Germany). The MRI acquisition protocol included high resolution T2-weighted, diffusion-weighted and parametric apparent diffusion coefficient maps were calculated from the DWI6. ...
With 2DE-ST, strain imaging can be performed which is a sensitive imaging modality that provides opportunities for detecting subclinical cardiac dysfunction in patients receiving cancer therapy [6, 7]. Although global longitudinal stran (GLS) has a moderate intervendor variability, its reproducibility ...
