nowadays, scientific c findings in the field of regeneration of nervous system have revealed the possibility of stem cell based therapies for damaged brain tissue related disorders like stroke. furthermore, to achieve desirable outcomes from cellular therapies, one needs to monitor the migration, engraftment, viability, and also functional fate of transplanted stem cells. magnetic resonance ima...

at first, ground-based circular strip-map synthetic aperture radar (gb-csmsar) and its capabilities is introduced and the received signal model, 2-d frequency spectrum and the azimuth and range resolutions are derived and compared with the linear motion strip-map sar resolutions. because of the stability of the path and speed of antenna in gb-csmsar a frequency domain imaging algorithm is sugge...

the use of quantum dots (qdots) as bright and photostable probes for long-term fluorescence imaging is gaining more interest. thus far, (pre)clinical use of qdots remains limited, which is primarily caused by the potential toxicity of qdots. most qdots consist of cd2+ ions, which are known to cause high levels of toxicity. therefore, the cytotoxic effects of cdse quantum dots on embryonic devel...
