BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate whether arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reliably quantify perfusion deficit as compared to dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion MRI. METHODS Thirty-nine patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation territory were recruited. All underwent ASL and DSC MRI perfusion scans wi...

This booklet provides an introduction to the concepts of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). It is written for the materials scientist unfamiliar with DSC. The differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) is a fundamental tool in thermal analysis. It can be used in many industries – from pharmaceuticals and polymers, to nanomaterials and food products. The information these instruments generate...

The Nottingham ePrints service makes this work by researchers of the University of Nottingham available open access under the following conditions. A note on versions: The version presented here may differ from the published version or from the version of record. If...

Thermal analysis has been an extremely important analytical tool within the pharmaceutical industry for more than forty (40) years. Although the technique could easily be classified as mature, recent advances in Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) have generated renewed enthusiasm in thermal analysis from pharmaceutical scientists. These new developments include TzeroTM DSC and Modulated DS...

This paper deals with the application of distributed source coding (DSC) theory to remote sensing image compression. Although DSC exhibits a significant potential in many application fields, up till now the results obtained on real signals fall short of the theoretical bounds, and often impose additional system-level constraints. The objective of this paper is to assess the potential of DSC for...

The interaction of native xanthan gum, deacetylated xanthan gum and depyruvated xanthan gum with konjac glucomannan has been studied using DSC and controlled stress rheometry. In the absence of electrolyte the DSC cooling curves for native xanthan and deacetylated xanthan showed a single peak and there was a corresponding sharp increase in the storage modulus indicating gel formation. It is app...

INTRODUCTION: Dynamic susceptibility contrast MRI (DSC-MRI) is a novel tool that has shown promise to increase the predictive power of diagnostic imaging, for example in the assessment of brain tumor grade [1]. Alterations in microvascular parameters such as blood volume and vascular permeability induced by pathological angiogenesis are detectable with DSC-MRI. However, the basic assumptions of...
