Normal-appearing Tissue at (ultra)high Field
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Virchow-Robin spaces (VRS) are associated with vascular and neurodegenerative disease. In multiple sclerosis (MS), VRS have been associated with neuroinflammation. Ultrahigh-field imaging may be used to gain insight in these contradictory findings.

Widespread inflammation in CLIPPERS syndrome indicated by autopsy and ultra-high-field 7T MRI
OBJECTIVE To examine if there is widespread inflammation in the brain of patients with chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids (CLIPPERS) syndrome by using histology and ultra-high-field MRI at 7.0T. METHODS We performed a detailed neuropathologic examination in 4 cases, including 1 autopsy case, and studied 2 additional patients by MRI at...
متن کاملA Planar, Layered Ultra-wideband Metamaterial Absorber for Microwave Frequencies
In this paper, an ultra-wideband metamaterial absorber is designed and simulated. The proposed absorber is planar and low profile. It is made of a copper sheet coated with two dielectric layers. Each unit cell of the metamaterial structure is composed of multiple metallic split rings, which are patterned on the top and middle boundaries of the dielectrics. The designed absorber utilizes differe...
متن کاملField Cancerization in Sporadic Colon Cancer
BACKGROUND/AIMS Aberrant DNA methylation has a specific role in field cancerization. Certain molecular markers, including secreted frizzled-related protein 2 (SFRP2), tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 (TFPI2 ), N-Myc downstream-regulated gene 4 (NDRG4) and bone morphogenic protein 3 (BMP3), have previously been shown to be hypermethylated in colorectal cancer (CRC). We aim to examine field canc...
متن کاملThe relationship between ultra-high frequency thresholds and transient evoked otoacoustic emissions in adults with tinnitus
Background: The possible role of cochlear function in tinnitus generation is still a matter of debate. To assess the role of outer hair cell dysfunction in tinnitus and its possible relationship with ultra-high frequency (UHF) hearing sensitivity, transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE) and UHF hearing thresholds were investigated in normal hearing individuals with and withou...
متن کاملDiagonal-SPRITE and Its Applications for In Vivo Imaging at High Field
Many solid or semi-solid tissues have ultra-short or short T2* components that make them virtually “invisible” to standard MRI techniques. For this reason, methods such as ultra-short echo time (UTE) techniques were developed to investigate and detect some of these short and ultra-short time components. Here we report on the development and implementation of a novel version of the Single Point ...
