Magnetic nanoparticles in medical diagnostic applications: Synthesis, characterization and proteins conjugation
(2016)Background: Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) used in biomedical applications should be discrete with small particle sizes, narrow size distribution and superparamagnetic. NPs can be tailored to target, through chemical bonds, ... -
Management of canine leishmaniosis in endemic SW European regions: A questionnaire-based multinational survey
(2014)Background: Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) caused by Leishmania infantum is a widespread endemic disease in SW Europe. This study was designed to determine how veterinarians clinically manage CanL in this region by analysing ... -
Medical-Grade Polyamide 12 Nanocomposite Materials for Enhanced Mechanical and Antibacterial Performance in 3D Printing Applications
(2022)During the COVID-19 pandemic, wide use of 3D printing technologies has been enabled. Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is the most widely used technique in 3D printing communities worldwide for the fabrication of medical ... -
Monte carlo computational software and methods in radiation dosimetry
(2021)The fast developments and ongoing demands in radiation dosimetry have piqued the attention of many software developers and physicists to create powerful tools to make their experiments more exact, less expensive, more ... -
A Novel Fuzzy Inference Approach: Neuro-fuzzy Cognitive Map
(2020)In this study, a new approach based on fuzzy cognitive map (FCM) and neuro-fuzzy inference system (NFIS), called the neuro-fuzzy cognitive map (NFCM), is proposed. Here, the NFCM is used for diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis ... -
Numerical and experimental analysis of high frequency acoustic microscopy and infrared reflectance system for early detection of melanoma
(2016)Melanoma is a very malicious type of cancer as it metastasizes early and hence its late diagnosis leads to death. Consequently, early diagnosis of melanoma and its removal is considered the most effective way of treatment. ... -
Organs dosimetry in targeted radionuclide therapy
(2021)The objective of this study is to assess the patients' effective and organ dose during theranostic applications in Kuwait. In total, eighteen adults' patients were conducted nuclear medicine procedures with 177Lu Dotatate ... -
PET Counting Response Variability Depending on Tumor Location, Activity, and Patient Obesity: A Feasibility Study of Solitary Pulmonary Nodule Using Monte Carlo
(2019)We aim to investigate the counting response variations of positron emission tomography (PET) scanners with different detector configurations in the presence of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN). Using experimentally validated ... -
The problem of knowledge elicitation from the expert's point of view
(2010)This chapter describes the development of an expert system by a knowledge engineer with pedagogical expertise. Specifically, the problem of knowledge elicitation from the expert's point of view is thoroughly presented as ... -
Progressive development of augmentation during long-term treatment with levodopa in restless legs syndrome: results of a prospective multi-center study
(2010)The European Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Study Group performed the first multi-center, long-term study systematically evaluating RLS augmentation under levodopa treatment. This prospective, open-label 6-month study was ... -
Significance of size and location of the lesion for prognosis of collapse of osteonecrosis of the femoral head for patients treated with tantalum rod
(2010)The purpose of this study is to predict osteonecrosis of the femoral head by examining location and size of the lesion of the femoral head. A triangulation approximation algorithm is used for the computation of the geometric ... -
Study of EEG power fluctuations enhanced by linguistic stimulus for cognitive decline screening
(2016)Relative Electroencephalography (EEG) power can reflect cognitive decline and play a critical diagnostic role for dementia onset. The current paper investigates power changes in EEG channels on elderly people having Mild ... -
A study of indices useful for the assessment of diagnostic markers in non-parametric ROC curve analysis
(2020)Diagnostic markers that discriminate between two classes, such as healthy and diseased subjects in medical diagnostics, are useful in virtually all fields of applied research. ROC curve analysis is widely used in order to ... -
Symptomatic cervical perineural (Tarlov) cyst: A case report
(2015)Background: Perineural (Tarlov) cysts are benign, usually asymptomatic, cerebrospinal fluid filled cysts of the spine, most often found in the sacral region. Description of case:We report a Tarlov cyst, located in the ... -
A tool to monitor and support physical exercise interventions for MCI and AD patients
(2014)This paper presents a tool to monitor and support the execution of common physical exercise interventions targeting people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and elderly in general. Our tool ... -
Unsupervised detection of fibrosis in microscopy images using fractals and fuzzy c-means clustering
(2012)The advances in improved fluorescent probes and better cameras in collaboration with the advent of computers in imaging and image analysis, assist the task of diagnosis in many fields of biologic and medical research. In ... -
An update on the diagnosis and treatment of canine leishmaniosis caused by Leishmania infantum (syn. L. chagasi)
(2014)Canine leishmaniosis caused by Leishmania infantum is still a common disease in endemic areas, such as the Mediterranean countries, and has progressively expanded into non-endemic areas like Central and Northern Europe. ... -
Using Combined Diagnostic Test Results to Hindcast Trends of Infection from Cross-Sectional Data
(2016)Infectious disease surveillance is key to limiting the consequences from infectious pathogens and maintaining animal and public health. Following the detection of a disease outbreak, a response in proportion to the severity ... -
