Clinical usefulness of temporal subtraction technique for detection of interval changes on digital chest radiographs
The temporal subtraction image which is obtained by subtracting a previous chest radiograph from a current one, can enhance interval changes considerably. In this article, we provide an overview of the scheme ...

Use of fast spin-echo sequence in T2-weighted and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI of sellar lesions
We evaluated fast spin echo (FSE) sequences in dynamic and T2-weighted MRI of sellar lesions. We examined 25 patients with sellar lesions by dynamic FSE imaging (400/17, ETL 8, 256 × 128, 2 signal averages eve...

MR angiography of arteriovenous malformations: usefulness of phase-contrast with different velocity encoding
To evaluate the usefulness of MR angiography in arteriovenous malformations (AVM) and compare the phase-contrast (PC) with different velocity encoding (VENC) and time-of-flight (TOF) techniques, we prospective...

Utility of MR angiography in intracranial aneurysms: statistical correlation and surgical benefits of the 3-D time-of-flight method
We evaluated the clinical benefit of three-dimensional (3-D) time-of-flight (TOF) MR angiography (MRA) and spoiled GRASS (SPGR) source imaging for intracranial aneurysms. MRA was performed on 40 aneurysms conf...

Core-Level Spectroscopy in Early-Transition-Metal Compounds
We analyse theoretically X-ray photoemission spectra (XPS) and X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) of early transition metal compounds with cluster model. From the analysis of Ti 1s and 2p XAS and Ti 2p, 3s, 3p XPS of...

Construction and Characterization of Chimeric Proteins Between Pyocins and Colicin E3
Pyocins S1, S2 and AP41 are the most frequently found protease-sensitive bacteriocins inPseudomonas aeruginosa. They are classified by the different receptor specificities. A peculiar feature of these bacteriocin...

Immunity Specificity and Evolution of the Nuclease-Type E Colicins
E-Group colicins are encoded by respective ColE plasmids and kill Escherichia coli cells through binding to a common surface receptor, BtuB, which is also the receptor for phage BF23 and vitamin B12 uptake (Buxto...

Pathophysiological Studies in the Rat Cerebral Embolization Model: Measurement of Epidural Pressure and Evaluation of Tissue pH and ATP
A rat embolization model was produced by occlusion of the main cerebral artery with a silicone cylinder embolus. Intracranial pressure was monitored by changes in epidural pressure (EDP), which was recorded by...

Statistical Analysis of Changes in Topographic EEG on Brain Tumor Cases with Peritumoral Edema
EEG is one of the best methods for estimating brain function. Topographic EEG is made by analyzing the power spectrum of EEG as equivalent potential (EP). In this study, the changes in topographic EEG after gl...

Effects of Glycerol on Brain Function in Normal Volunteers — Study on Regional Cerebral Blood Flow, Average Topographic EEG and Significance Probability Map**
The effects of glycerol on the normal brain are still obscure. In this study the effects of glycerol on normal brain were examined using single photon emission CT (SPECT) and topographic electroencephalogram (...

Correlation Between Epidural Pressure and Cerebral Metabolism in Rat with Main Cerebral Artery Occlusion with Silicone Embolus
We made a microballoon system for measurement of epidural pressure (EDP) and investigated the correlation between EDP and cerebral metabolism in the rat embolization model.
