Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an essential role in molecular imaging by delivering the contrast agent into targeted cancer cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the C595 monoclonal antibody-conjugated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs-C595) for the detection of breast cancer cell (MCF-7). Methods: The conjugation of monoclonal antibody and nanopartic...

Temporal bone chondroblastoma is an extremely rare benign bone tumor. We encountered two cases showing similar imaging findings on computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and dual-time-point 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT. In both cases, CT images revealed temporal bone defects and sclerotic changes around the tumor. Most parts of the ...

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents have an important role to differentiate healthy and diseased tissues. Access and design new contrast agents for the optimal use of MRI are necessary. This study aims to evaluate iron oxide–4A nanocomposite ability to act as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent.Materials and Methods: Iron oxide–4A nanocomposite (F4A) was syn...

detection of brain tissues using magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is an active and challenging research area in computational neuroscience. brain mri artifacts lead to an uncertainty in pixel values. therefore, brain mri segmentation is a complicated concern which is tackled by a novel data fusion approach. the proposed algorithm has two main steps. in the first step the brain mri is divided to...

The present study aimed to assess gadoxetate disodium contrast-enhanced (CE) positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with 68Ga-DOTATOC and 11C-5-Hydroxy-tryptophan (11C-5-HTP) in comparison iodine CE 68Ga-DOTATOC-PET/computed (CT) for neuroendocrine tumour imaging. Detection rate reader's confidence were evaluated each separate image volume: CE-CT, CE-MRI including d...

Moyamoya disease is extremely rare. In children, it one of the rare causes ischemic stroke. We present a 4-year-old female patient diagnosed with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Angiography (MRA). case chronic lacunar infarct in white matter on magnetic resonance imaging, cigarette smoke image characterized by diffuse collateral vascular networks was observed MRA imaging. Since rare, we th...

background the most common soft tissue tumors during infancy and childhood are vascular lesions. although the vast majority of these lesions have typical clinical features with no need for any further exam, but sometimes atypical superficial or deeply located lesions require complementary studies to be diagnosed and classified. in that way it is also very important to exclude very less common m...

Introduction:  Image  distortion  is  one  of  the  major  problems  of  magnetic  resonance  imaging  (MRI) for use in 3DMRI, velocity MRI, FMRI and radiotherapy treatment planning (RTTP). It is  widely known that the most obvious effect of the inhomogenity of the magnetic fields and the  nonlinearity  of  the  gradient  is  the  Geometric  Distortion  of  MR  tomograms.  In  this  study,  the...

Background: Glucose transporter (Glut), a cellular transmembrane receptor, has a key role in the metabolism of cell glucose and is also associated with various human carcinomas.Objective: In this study, we evaluated a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agent for tumor detection based on paramagnetic gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) coated polycyclodextrin (PCD) and mod...
