Purpose: Although both relaxation and diffusion imaging are sensitive to tissue microstructure, studies have reported limited sensitivity and robustness of using relaxation or conventional diffusion alone to characterize tissue microstructure. Recently, it has been shown that tensor-valued diffusion encoding and joint relaxation-diffusion quantification enable more reliable quantification of compa
BACKGROUND: Data on unrecognized liver cirrhosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are derived mainly from cohorts with a risk of selection bias.OBJECTIVES: In a population-based cohort study we aimed to determine the proportion, characteristics, and prognosis of HCC in patients with unrecognized cirrhosis.METHODS: Using the Swedish quality register for liver cancer and other nationw
This paper aims to design a highly efficient adsorbent to capture phosphoprotein in a facile way. One of the applications would be removing the allergenic β-casein from vaccines. To avoid the use of organic reagents and improve the capacity of immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography applied for bio-products at neutral pH, synergistic functional Core@Brush microspheres were designed utilizing
The understanding of the genesis of life-threatening cancer and its invasion calls for urgent development of novel technologies for real-time observations, early diagnosis, and treatment. Quantum dots (QDs) grabbed the spotlight in oncology owing to their excellent photostability, bright fluorescence, high biocompatibility, good electrical and chemical stability with minimum invasiveness. Recently
Urbana översvämningar orsakar stora samhällsskador och skyfallens snabba och lokala karaktär gör dem svåra att observera, förutsäga och varna för. Det finns också brist på data om översvämningsskador, främst på grund av knapp och icke-systematisk datainsamling och -hantering. I denna artikel presenterar vi ett nytt forskningsprojekt: SPARC. Det övergripande syftet med projektet är att förbättra säUrban flooding causes large societal damages and increased climate adaptation measures is needed. Therapid and local character of extreme rain events make them difficult to observe and predict, and to issuewarnings for. There is also a lack of data on urban flood damages, mainly because of scarce and nonsystematic data collection and management. In this paper, we present the approaches behind the
