Sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping-guided biopsy is crucial for cancer staging and treatment. Optical/nuclide dual-modality imaging agents mapping SLN are ideal preoperative planning intraoperative biopsy, which enabled by penetration-depth unlimited nuclide dynamic real-time optical imaging, respectively. However, commonly reported composed of novel but safety-unproven materials, making their quick clinical translation challenging. Herein, we report a nanoparticle facile hospital-available...
Objective: To compare the diagnostic efficacy of 11 C-choline PET/CT, neck ultrasonography, 99m Tc-MIBI dual-phase planar scintigraphy, and SPECT/CT imaging in diagnosis primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis 32 patients with PHPT who visited Nuclear Medicine Department Jilin University China-Japan Union Hospital between January 2019 December 2022.All underwent examinations within two months before surgery.Sensitivity, specificity, positive...
Abstract BACKGROUND Peak oxygen consumption (V̇O 2peak ) is used to predict outcomes and the timing of transplantation in patients with heart failure reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF); V̇O also has predictive utility adult congenital disease (ACHD). However, value a given ACHD compared those HFrEF, especially after adjustment for age sex, not clear. METHODS To address this, we performed longitudinal cohort study comparing HFrEF. The HFrEF cohorts were matched sex (+/- 10 y). tests conducted...
Abstract We present a 53-year-old woman who had shortness of breath and atypical chest pain underwent 99m Tc-sestamibi myocardial perfusion imaging to detect coronary artery disease. The raw data in cine format showed an incidental focus close the heart, SPECT/CT fused images revealed intense uptake left breast. subsequent histopathologic findings 18 F-FDG PET/CT confirmed diagnosis as primary breast lymphoma. After 3 cycles chemotherapy, previously visualized abnormal disappeared on...
The study focused on the application of speckle tracking algorithm in segmentation cardiac color ultrasound images patients with atrial fibrillation combined heart failure. First, optical flow method and block matching were introduced basis multiphase level set algorithm. Then, pyramid was applied to build a model from bottom top according each image, thus new image constructed. based segment 136 failure compared traditional diagnosis for sensitivity, specificity, accuracy. It found that...
There is evidence that isoprostanes (IsoPs) can regulate sympathetic neurotransmission in bovine irides vitro (Opere et al., Free Rad Res. 35:). However, the regulation of dopamine (DA) levels by IsoPs mammalian retinae remains unclear. We examined effect on endogenous DA rabbit, vivo and K+-evoked release exogenously applied [3H]DA retinae, vitro. Albino rabbits were sedated, then injected intravitreally with IsoPs. After 4 hours, animals sacrificed isolated for measurement using HPLC....
Isoprostanes (IsoPs) can regulate the release of excitatory amino acid from isolated bovine retina (Opere et al. , Neurochem Res 30: 2005). The effect IsoPs on morphology mammalian retinal tissues is unknown. We examined effects intravitreally injected 8‐isoPGE 2 tissue integrity and viability, ex vivo. Using obtained at beginning (time=0) 30 mins after intravitreal injection or vehicle, viability was by TdT‐mediated dUTP nick‐end labeling (TUNEL) assay for apoptosis while hematoxylin eosin...
Introduction: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing provides information about functional capacity via direct measurement of respiratory gas exchange. Whether peak oxygen consumption during (VO 2peak ) is predictive outcomes in patients with congenital heart disease controversial. Hypothesis: VO has prognostic implications for death, left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement, and cardiac transplant adult diseases. Methods: Congenital were selected from a registry who completed test at...
