The main function of white adipose tissue (WAT) is to store energy in the form of intracellular lipids (fat). Brown adipose tissue (BAT), however, uses substrates such as lipids and glucose to generate heat in a process called non-shivering thermogenesis (NST), upon metabolic activation e....
In case of malignancy (DCIS or invasive carcinoma), the lesion is surgically removed. The MRI group (n = 250) will undergo routine clinical care and in addition, contrast enhanced Breast MRI in the University Medical Center prior to the large core needle biopsy. The MRI scan will be ...
There are important limitations of MRI in preoperative assessment for TAVI including multiple breath holds, longer scan time, and other contraindications as discussed inappendix B. How well MRI assesses calcified plaques and porcelain aorta is not known. At present, semi-automatic analysis software is...
The ultra-small Fe3O4 nanoparticles, as excellent contrast agent, is able to provide great enhanced signal of T1- and T2-weighted MRI (r1 = 6.263 mM−1 s−1, r2 = 28.117 mM−1 s−1) due to their ultra-refined size. After functionalization, the present MCAs ...
The importance of functional impairment prior to organic damage, and the role of the autoimmune response in CNS pathology is enhanced by a study examining somatosensory-evoked potentials (SEP) among 33 pSS patients without clinical features of CNS damage and normal head computed tomography scan. The...
Imaging with gadoxetic acid requires an additional scan; typically, the agent is given as a bolus with arterial phase imaging, followed by portal venous phase imaging; after approximately 20 min, enough uptake into hepatocytes has occurred to allow additional biliary phase imaging. Gadoxetic acid ...
Table S3: Specifications of applied mpMRI scan protocols. TSE: turbo spin echo; EPI: echo-planar imaging; DWI: diffusion weighted imaging; DCE: dynamic contrast enhanced; TR: repetition time; TE: echo time; FOV: field of view; NEX: number of excitation; H: head; F: feet; R: right; ...
[70] is to perform a quick, low-resolution multi-PLD scan for transit time mapping to optimize a subsequent high-resolution single-PLD ASL scan. Table 4. Overview of renal ASL studies using multiple post-labeling delays. Reference [15] [39] [46] [50] [17] [19] [57] [59] [60] ...
Despite a high variety of single-mode T1 or T2 contrast agents, there is a need for dual-mode contrast from the one agent. Here, we report on the synthesis of magnetic submicron carriers, containing Fe3O4 nanoparticles in their structure. We show the ability to control magnetic resonance ...
