Visual Search in Alzheimer’s Disease — fMRI Study
The aim was to investigate the neural basis of visual attention deficits in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients using functional MRI. Thirteen AD patients and 13 age-matched controls participated in the experime...

Shape and Pixel-Property Based Automatic Affine Registration Between Ultrasound Images of Different Fetal Head
The difficulties in the automatic registration of the ultrasound images of different fetal heads are mainly caused by the poor image quality, view dependent imaging property and the difference of brain tissues...

Efficient Lossy to Lossless Medical Image Compression Using Integer Wavelet Transform and Multiple Subband Decomposition
Since medical imaging produce prohibitive amounts of data, efficient and low-complexity compression is necessary for storage and communication purposes. In this paper, a flexible coding algorithm called embedd...

Assessing Spline-Based Multi-resolution 2D-3D Image Registration for Practical Use in Surgical Guidance
A spline-based multi-resolution 2D-3D image registration algorithm has recently been introduced [1-3]. However, its accuracy, robustness, and efficiency have not been fully investigated. In this paper, we focu...

Cervical Cancer Detection Using SVM Based Feature Screening
We present a novel feature screening algorithm by deriving relevance measures from the decision boundary of Support Vector Machines. It alleviates the “independence” assumption of traditional screening methods...

A Model for Some Subcortical DTI Planar and Linear Anisotropy
Linear anisotropy, planar anisotropy and isotropy [1] are used as metrics for different kinds of diffusion in diffusion imaging. While linear anisotropy is reported to correlate to coherent neural fiber struct...

Color Rapid Prototy** for Diffusion-Tensor MRI Visualization
We describe work toward creating color rapid prototy** (RP) plaster models as visualization tools to support scientific research in diffusion-tensor (DT) MRI analysis. We currently give surgeons and neurolog...

C-Jun is a JNK-Independent Coactivator of the PU.1 Transcription Factor
The ETS domain transcription factor PU.1 is necessary for the development of monocytes and regulates, in particular, the expression of the monocyte-specific macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) recepto...

Thrombosis After Ischemic Stroke-Platelet Aggregation
After ischemic stroke secondary thrombosis contributes to the expansion of the lesion. This manuscript describes the underlying mechanisms responsible for cerebral thrombosis after stroke. We hypothesize that ...

Delayed Gene Expression and Ischemic Brain Injury
There is increasing evidence that cerebral ischemic injury occurs at a slower pace than previously believed. Although in areas of severe ischemia tissue damage occurs relatively rapidly, in regions of less-sev...

Protein Expression and Brain Plasticity After Transient Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion in the Rat
After a stroke, both animals and humans can regain lost function. The molecular basis of this functional plasticity is unknown. In this manuscript, we describe developmental protein expression in the ischemic ...

The Evolution of B-Cell Clones
Large numbers of B cells are produced throughout life as the result of both primary B lymphopoiesis (Opstelten and Osmond 1983) and antigen-driven B- cell proliferation (Fliedner et al. 1964). It is a feature of ...
