Breast MRIHigh sensitivity and specificity to support cancer imaging Zoom Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. On a global scale, every tenth woman is affected, and numbers continue to rise. MR imaging can help provide early and reliable diagnosis especially in difficult cases. It ...
Previous studies have proven the usability of auto-segmentation for pre-operative planning of cochlear implant surgery using CT imaging37 and for the diagnosis of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis using MRI imaging11. Our model proved to be efficient on MRI imaging. However, the proposed methodology ...
Magnetic resonance imaging is a key diagnostic tool in modern healthcare, yet it can be cost-prohibitive given the high installation, maintenance and operation costs of the machinery. There are approximately seven scanners per million inhabitants and ove
The new bi-ventricular systems are being used to treat congestive heart failure, and make it possible to implant leads outside of the left ventricle. This makes for a very efficient pacing system; however, the lead wire system 104 is quite complex. When a lead wire system 104, such as ...
For example, in a large adult patient with an abdominal implant, the implanted loop area is much larger (greater than 450 square centimeters). Relating now to the specific case of MRI, the magnetic gradient fields would be induced through enclosed loop areas. However, the pulsed RF fields, ...

According to Wired magazine, some people even implant tiny neodymium magnets in their fingers, allowing them to detect electromagnetic fields. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines use magnetic fields to allow doctors to examine patients' internal organs. Doctors also use pulsed electromagnetic ...

During the first trimester of pregnancy, fetal cells proliferate, differentiate, migrate and implant, going through one of the most crucial phases of pregnancy, namely, organogenesis. Precisely during this delicate phase, the main risks are related to an altered organogenesis or to a possible miscarr...
