We present model calculations to the observed spectral variability in the γ-ray spectrum of the ultraluminous blazar-type quasar PKS 0528+134. We argue that the observed appearance of a spectral break between the COMPTEL and the EGRET energy range can plausibly be explained by a variation of the Doppler beaming factor in the framework of a relativistic jet model for AGNs, combining the ERC and ...

The concept of cepstrum thresholding (CT) is applied to estimate smoothed nonparametric spectrum. The CT method is applied to Mesosphere, Stratosphere and Troposphere (MST) radar data for spectral cleaning. This method is not superior as compared with the conventional Periodogram method. So, to enhance the spectral visibility in Doppler Profile (DP), the CT technique is modified. The modified c...

We present an application of the Joint Spectral and Time domain OCT (STdOCT) method for detection of wide range of flows in the retinal vessels. We utilized spectral/Fourier domain OCT (SOCT) technique for development of scan protocols for Doppler signal analysis. We performed retinal imaging in normal eyes using ultrahigh speed (200 000 axial scans/s) SOCT instrument with a CMOS camera. Variou...

Doppler color flow imaging is a method for noninvasively imaging blood flow through the heart by displaying flow data on the two-dimensional echocardiographic image. This capability has generated great excitement about the use of the technique for identifying valvular, congenital, and other forms of heart disease, as the color flow image imparts spatial information to the Doppler data. To inexp...

OBJECTIVES Uterine artery Doppler flow studies during the 11th and 14th week of pregnancy are important in the prediction of preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction in pregnant women as well as in the prevention thereof. METHODS Our study on Doppler flow indices of the uterine arteries involved 168 patients examined in our clinic, with pregnancies ranging from 11 weeks + 0 days to 13...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to compare the use of vascular indices derived from the whole placenta to those from the placental bed only for predicting preeclampsia and to determine whether the addition of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) and mean uterine artery Doppler values improves prediction. METHODS We conducted a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort of w...
