An array of cannabinoid ligands, bearing meta- and para-substituted pentafluorosulfanyl (SF5) aniline groups in position 3 of the pyrazole ring, was efficiently synthesised and compared with the exact trifluoromethyl and…

…a four-layer detector to test this design concept using Hamamatsu S8550 APD arrays and LYSO crystals. We used the centre 16 pixels of each of the arrays to give an…

…is usually measured from some estimate of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the component diffusion-weighted (DW) images. This measure is, however, highly dependent on experimental parameters, such as the diffusion…

…scheme is presented which ensures a reliable measurement. Pharmacokinetic modelling of the observed contrast agent uptake is then performed to obtain physiological parameters relating to microvessel leakage permeability and volume…

Fractal measures such as fractal dimension (FD) can quantify the structural complexity of the brain. These have been used in clinical neuroscience to investigate brain development, ageing and in studies…

Background and Purpose – Several methods are available to assess the magnetic resonance perfusion lesion in acute ischemic stroke. We tested 10 of these to compare perfusion lesion sizes and…

…healthy volunteers and 20 patients with aortic stenosis (AS). Pre- and post-contrast myocardial T1, the partition coefficient (λ; ΔRmyocardium/ΔRblood, where ΔR = 1/post-contrast T1 − 1/pre-contrast T1), and extracellular volume…
