Purpose We aimed to determine the agreement between quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM)‐based biomagnetic liver susceptometry (BLS) and confounder‐corrected R2* with superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID)‐based in patients iron overload. Methods Data were acquired from two healthy controls 22 undergoing MRI SQUID‐BLS as part of routine monitoring for Magnetic resonance imaging was performed on a 3T system using three‐dimensional multi‐echo gradient‐echo acquisition. Both...
Objectives Fat quantification by dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) provides contrast-independent objective results, for example, on hepatic steatosis or muscle quality as parameters of prognostic relevance. To date, fat has only been developed and used source-based DECT techniques fast kVp-switching CT dual-source CT, which require a prospective selection the imaging mode. It was purpose this study to develop material decomposition algorithm in phantoms validate it vivo patient liver...
Abstract Objectives Assessment of myocardial strain by feature tracking magnetic resonance imaging (FT-MRI) in human fetuses with and without congenital heart disease (CHD) using cardiac Doppler ultrasound (DUS) gating. Methods A total 43 (gestational age 28–41 weeks) underwent dynamic MRI at 3 T. Cine balanced steady-state free-precession was performed fetal DUS FT-MRI analyzed dedicated post-processing software. Endo- epicardial contours were manually delineated from 4-chamber views,...
To quantify the proportion of fat within skeletal muscle as a measure quality using dual-energy CT (DECT) and to validate this methodology with MRI.Twenty-one patients abdominal contrast-enhanced DECT scans (100 kV/Sn 150 kV) underwent 3-T MRI. The fraction (DECT-FF), determined by material decomposition, HU values on virtual non-contrast-enhanced (VNC) images were measured in 126 regions interest (≥ 6 cm2) posterior paraspinal muscle. For validation, MR-based (MR-FF) was assessed chemical...
To determine the pancreatic iron (R2*) and fat content (FC) in comparison to hepatic cardiac R2* patients with overload disorders like β-thalassemia major (TM), Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) or hereditary hemochromatosis.R2* rates were assessed liver, heart pancreas of 42 TM, 29 subjects other diseases, 10 controls using an ECG-gated breathhold sequence (12 echo time [TE] = 1.3-25.7 ms, readout repetition [TR] 244 ms). Pancreatic FC from TE dependent region interest based signal intensities...
Aims The aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence myocardial injury and cardiac dysfunction after an endurance race by biomarkers magnetic resonance in triathletes with without fibrosis. Methods results Thirty asymptomatic male (45 ± 10 years) over training hours per week 55 8 ml/kg minute maximal oxygen uptake during exercise testing were studied before (baseline) 2.4 1.1 post-race. Baseline included cine, T1/T2, late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) extracellular volume imaging....
The Malleus Maleficarum, the standard textbook of medieval witch-hunting published in 1484 (2), already mentions that “an illusion sight and touch can be caused … by summoning to fancy or imagination certain forms ideas latent mind”, continues saying “(the fifth) method delusion devil is working imaginative power, a disturbance humours effecting transmutation perceived senses”. This might first hypothesis ascribing behavioural changes an apparently schizophrenic nature biochemical influences.
Thus the mind is not large enough to contain itself: but where can that part of it be which does contain?

The terminology pertaining to the structure of male genitalia Hymenoptera has been subject much confusion. Several systems, many purely descriptive in nature, have previously set forch. Others were based on various concepts ontogeny genitalia, or comparative morphology adults. investigation reported here began as an attempt synthesize terminolopies and evolve a workable terms megachilid bees. Accordingly, study was conducted myology group with thought that perhaps understanding musculature...
