Abstract:
The high-affinity radioligand [18F]fallypride (FP) is frequently used for quantification of striatal/extrastriatal D2/3 receptors and the receptor occupancies of antipsychotics (APs). Its 110 minutes half-life allows long scan durations. However, the optimum scan duration is a matter of debate. This investigation focuses on scan-duration-related effects on simplified reference tissue model (SRTM) results and the time point of transient equilibrium in a large sample of dynamic FP positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Fifty drug-free and 50 AP-treated subjects underwent FP-PET scans (180 min

Abstract:
Background: Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) can evaluate brain functional connectivity without requiring subjects to perform a specific task. This rs-fMRI is very useful in patients with cognitive decline or unable to respond to tasks. However, long scan durations have been suggested to measure connectivity between brain areas to produce more reliable results, which are not clinically optimal. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate a shorter scan duration and compare the scan duration of 10 and 15 min using the rs-fMRI approach. Methods: Twenty-one healthy male an

Abstract:
Background Current guidelines for CT perfusion (CTP) in acute stroke suggest acquiring scans with a minimal duration of 60-70 s. But even then, CTP analysis can be affected by truncation artifacts. Conversely, shorter acquisitions are still widely used in clinical practice and may, sometimes, be sufficient to reliably estimate lesion volumes. We aim to devise an automatic method that detects scans affected by truncation artifacts.

Background: Separation anxiety among children is common and normal.Children undergoing radiological imaging studies often require sedation to avoid panic episodes & severe anxiety for induction of Anaesthesia. It is important for the child to lie still during the scanning procedure & mostly we find it difficult for the children to keep still during a CT scan, which is usually about 10–15 minutes. This study aimed at comparing and evaluating the efficacy of use of intranasally administered Dexmedetomidine Vs intranasal midazolam for paediatric sedation undergoing diagnostic CT scan stud

7589 Background: There has been some question regarding the predictive value of 111In scans in FL. We report imaging results with fusion PET-CT scans and 111In scans in a single-institution, non-randomized, phase II trial in patients with FL treated with CHOP-R followed by 90Y ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin (Z)) and R. Methods: Eligible patients have CD20 positive FL, Grade 1–3 or transformed, Stage II-IV, no prior treatment with monoclonal antibody or chemotherapy, and symptomatic disease (if grade 1–2). CHOP-R is given every 21 days for 3 cycles. Four weeks after the last dose of CHOP-R, pati

Abstract:
We proposed a novel solution for volumetric ultrasound imaging using single-side access 3-D synthetic aperture scanning of a clinical linear array. This solution is based on an advanced scanning geometry and a software-based ultrasound platform. The rotate-translate scanning scheme increases the elevation angular aperture by pivoting the array (−45° to 45°) around its array axis (axis along the row of its elements) and then scans the imaged object for each pivoted angle by translating the array perpendicularly to the rotation axis. A theoretical basis is presented so that the angular and trans

Abstract BACKGROUND Little is known about the growth rate of glioblastoma once disease progression occurs. This is relevant for the timing of baseline imaging for second-line treatment in clinical trials and subsequent response monitoring. If a tumor grows rapidly in the period between imaging and therapy initiation, adequate response assessment may be hindered leading to false interpretations of progression to the experimental treatment. Recommendations on the interval duration between baseline scanning and treatment initiation are inconsistent between the RANO 2.0 criteria and various study
