Association of plaque echostructure and cardiovascular risk factors with symptomatic carotid artery disease
(2010)Aim. Severity of stenosis remains the main factor for assessing risk of stroke in patients with internal carotid artery (ICA) disease. This study was conducted to investigate the association of plaque echostructure and ... -
Development and evaluation of QSPECT open-source software for the iterative reconstruction of SPECT images
(2010)Objective In this study open-source software (QSPECT) suitable for the iterative reconstruction of single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) data is presented. QSPECT implements maximum likelihood expectation ... -
Dimensions of the lumbar spinal canal: variations and correlations with somatometric parameters using CT
(1998)The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation of vertebral dimensions with somatometric parameters in patients without clinical symptoms and radiological signs of central lumbar spinal stenosis. One hundred ... -
Electron density of tissues and breast cancer radiotherapy: A quantitative CT study
(1998)Purpose: To obtain more accurate data on the electron density of tissues to be used in the treatment planning of breast cancer patients. Methods and materials: Single kV(p) quantitative computed tomography was applied in ... -
Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound for bone healing: An overview
(2006)Low-intensity ultrasound is a biophysical form of intervention in the fracture-repair process, which through several mechanisms accelerates healing of fresh fractures and enhances callus formation in delayed unions and ... -
Perfusion SPECT studies with mapping of Brodmann areas in differentiating Alzheimer's disease from frontotemporal degeneration syndromes
(2012)Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the contribution of brain perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPEC) studies with mapping of Brodmann areas (BAs) in the differential diagnosis between ... -
Postoperative evaluation of tibial footprint and tunnels characteristics after anatomic double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with anatomic aimers
(2010)Following anatomic double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with hamstring tendon autografts, 38 consecutive patients were evaluated with high-speed three-dimensional computed tomography. Scans were ... -
Software upgrading in a CT scanner - Influence on quantitative CT
(1996)Purpose: In an attempt to improve field uniformity and CT number stability, the software in a CT scanner was replaced with a new version. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the influence of the software ... -
Transosseous application of low-intensity ultrasound for the enhancement and monitoring of fracture healing process in a sheep osteotomy model
(2006)The purpose of this study is twofold: (a) to investigate the application of transosseous low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LiUS) on the enhancement of fracture healing and (b) to demonstrate the ability of transosseous ... -
An ultrasound wearable system for the monitoring and acceleration of fracture healing in long bones
(2005)An ultrasound wearable system for remote monitoring and acceleration of the healing process in fractured long bones is presented. The so-called USBone system consists of a pair of ultrasound transducers, implanted into the ...
