The pathophysiology of aortic stenosis shares many similarities with atherosclerosis and skeletal bone formation. Using non-invasive imaging, we compared aortic valve calcification and inflammation activity with that measured in atherosclerosis…

…dimeglumine (Gd) enhanced MRI is an accurate method for noninvasive staging of the axilla. 47 women with a new primary breast cancer underwent preoperative dynamic Gd enhanced MRI of the…

Identifying genetic variants influencing human brain structures may reveal new biological mechanisms underlying cognition and neuropsychiatric illness. The volume of the hippocampus is a biomarker of incipient Alzheimer’s disease and…

…appear to be advantageous. The sparse temporal sampling (STS) technique uses a very long repetition time in order to achieve a stimulus presentation in the absence of scanner noise. Although…

Reading action verbs is associated with activity in the motor cortices involved in performing the corresponding actions. Here, we present new evidence that the motor cortex is involved in semantic…

The ligating properties of Me3N(+)-N(-)X trimethylammonio-stabilised nitrogen ylides have been investigated. The electron-rich nitrogen atom of the ylide can be attached to silver(I) and mercury(II), giving rise to new solids…

Computers may have the potential to augment human cognitive processes in ways that could be beneficial for people with dementia. This possibility is being investigated by a multidisciplinary team. Previous…
