Cosmological Magnetic Fields by Parametric Resonance?
We investigate the possibility that electromagnetic fluctuations are amplified in expanding universe by parametric resonance, during the oscillatory regime of a scalar field to which they are coupled. We consider scalar electrodynamics and we find that electromagnetic fluctuations undergo exponential instabilities. This mechanism could have some relevance for the problem of large scale primordi...
متن کاملLiver iron concentration evaluated by two magnetic methods: magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic susceptometry.
Quantification of liver iron concentration (LIC) is crucial in the management of patients suffering from certain pathologies that can produce iron overload, such as Cooley's anemia and hemochromatosis. All of these patients must control the level of iron deposits in their organs to avoid the toxicity of high LIC, which is potentially lethal. This paper describes experimental protocols for LIC m...
متن کاملLiver Fibrosis Quantification by Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Liver fibrosis is a hallmark of chronic liver disease characterized by the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins. Although liver biopsy is the reference standard for diagnosis and staging of liver fibrosis, it has some limitations, including potential pain, sampling variability, and low patient acceptance. Hence, there has been an effort to develop noninvasive imaging techniqu...
متن کاملclinical applications of cardiovascular magnetic resonance methods
the application of magnetic resonance to diagnostic medical imaging stands as one of the great scientific achievements in the past 50 years. magnetic resonance techniques are easily applied to organs which remain stationary during the imaging procedure, such as the brain and musculoskeletal system. imaging of moving heart structures and circulating blood is considerably more difficult. clinic...
