Abstract We investigated gait performance utilizing a quantitative analysis for 2 groups: (1) idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) patients who had positive response to the cerebrospinal fluid tap test (CSFTT) and (2) healthy controls. The aims of study were analyze characteristics features, characterize changes in parameters before after CSFTT, (3) determine whether there was any relationship between stride time length variability Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB) scores INPH...
Abstract Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has been attracting interest as a new radiation modality for cancer because it can selectively destroy cells while maintaining the healthy state of surrounding normal cells. Many experimental trials have demonstrated significant BNCT treatment efficacy using beams from research reactors. However, nuclear reactor technology cannot be scaled to sites in hospitals delivering patient treatment. Therefore, compact accelerator-based sources that could...
We investigated differences in cortical thickness between idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) patients and healthy controls. also explored whether a relationship exists thinning gait disturbance INPH patients. Forty-nine 26 controls were imaged with MRI, including 3-dimensional volumetric images, for automated surface-based analysis across the entire brain. Compared age- gender-matched controls, unexpectedly, showed statistically significant thickening mainly areas located high...
Abstract The aims of the study are to evaluate idiopathic normal‐pressure hydrocephalus (INPH)‐related cerebral blood flow (CBF) abnormalities and investigate their relation cortical thickness in INPH patients. We investigated CBF utilizing surface‐based early‐phase 18 F‐florbetaben (E‐FBB) PET analysis two groups: patients healthy controls. All 39 20 controls were imaged with MRI, including three‐dimensional volumetric images, for automated across entire brain. A subgroup 37 participants...
The aims of the study were to measure cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volumes in lateral ventricle, high-convexity subarachnoid space, and Sylvian fissure region patients with idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) Alzheimer's disease (AD), evaluate differences these between INPH AD groups healthy controls. Forty-nine patients, 59 26 controls imaged automated three-dimensional volumetric MRI. had larger ventricles CSF spaces smaller than other groups, control group. group showed a...
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a radiation that selectively kills cancer cells and being actively researched developed around the world. In Korea, development of proton linear accelerator-based BNCT system has completed development, its anti-cancer effect in U-87 MG subcutaneous xenograft model been evaluated. To evaluate efficacy BNCT, we measured 10B-enriched boronophenylalanine (BPA) uptake MG, FaDu, SAS evaluated cell viability by clonogenic assays. addition, boron concentration...
Abstract Background We investigated differences in cortical thickness utilizing automated surface‐based analysis 2 groups: idiopathic normal‐pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) patients who had a positive response to the cerebrospinal fluid tap test and healthy controls. also explored whether relationship exists between thinning gait disturbance INPH patients. hypothesized that might show characteristic pattern of change there may be unique relationships Method Forty‐nine 26 controls were imaged...
