Regularisation in Coded-Aperture Spect
In pinhole-coded-aperture medical imaging the linear system of equations to be inverted for an object reconstruction is often vastly underdetermined (up to 90%, say). Our interest is in a comparison of object ...

Preliminary Results from Simulations of Tomographic Imaging Using Multiple-Pinhole Coded Apertures
The use of multiple-pinhole coded apertures in single-photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) systems makes possible SPECT geometries that image from multiple directions simultaneously and that have great...

Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in children with myelodysplastic syndrome or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia: the Seattle experience
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in children with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). In total, 94 consecutive pediatric patients with MDS received...

Outcome of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation for children with advanced acute myeloid leukemia
Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) may offer the only chance of cure for children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in second complete remission (CR2) or with relapsed disease, but the outcome of the...

Imatinib therapy prior to myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation
It is unknown whether imatinib prior to myeloablative haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) increases transplant-related toxicity. Among the side effects induced by imatinib, myelosuppression and liv...

The impact of histologic grade on the outcome of high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation for follicular lymphoma
The impact of the follicular lymphoma (FL) histologic grade on outcomes after high-dose therapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is unknown. We evaluated 219 consecutive patients with grad...

Influence of oral beclomethasone dipropionate on early non-infectious pulmonary outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation: results from two randomized trials
Early non-infectious pulmonary complications represent a significant cause of mortality after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). We tested the hypothesis that oral beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) is e...

Comparison of matched unrelated and matched related donor myeloablative hematopoietic cell transplantation for adults with acute myeloid leukemia in first remission
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from a matched related donor (MRD) benefits many adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1). The majority of patients does not have such...

Extracorporeal photopheresis in addition to pentostatin in conditioning for canine hematopoietic cell transplantation: role in engraftment
Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) and the purine analog pentostatin exert potent immunomodulatory effects, but have not been evaluated for their ability to enhance engraftment of hematopoietic stem cells. We ...

Autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation following high-dose immunosuppressive therapy for advanced multiple sclerosis: long-term results
The purpose of the study was to determine the long-term safety and effectiveness of high-dose immunosuppressive therapy (HDIT) followed by autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) in advanced multi...

Effects on tumor development and metastatic dissemination by the NKG2D lymphocyte receptor expressed on cancer cells
The stimulatory NKG2D lymphocyte receptor together with its tumor-associated ligands enable the immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. However, with dynamic changes unfolding, cancers exploit NKG...

A randomized study of melphalan 200 mg/m2 vs 280 mg/m2 as a preparative regimen for patients with multiple myeloma undergoing auto-SCT
We aimed to examine whether doses of melphalan higher than 200 mg/m2 improve response rates when used as conditioning before autologous transplant (ASCT) in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Patients with MM, n=131...
