We have previously shown that, in mouse NIH/3T3 cells, it is necessary to coexpress the gene for human hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SFhu) with its receptor, the human met protooncogene (methu), to activate the transforming activity of the receptor (S. Rong, M. Bodescot, D. Blair, T. Nakamura, K. Mizuno, M. Park, A. Chan, S. Aaronson, and G. F. Vande Woude, Mol. Cell. Biol., 12: ...

An integrated imaging sensor system is being developed to enhance operations of robots and telerobotic systems used in nuclear industry . This system combines a gamma ray image of the distribution of radioactivity with a video image of the area, allowing a rapid and intuitive determination of the source location . The gamma ray imaging system is based upon a position sensitive photomultiplier t...

UNLABELLED The main objective of this work was the development of a skew-slit collimator for small-animal SPECT to replace the state-of-the-art multipinhole collimator. METHODS A pinhole forms a cone-beam imaging geometry. If the collimator rotates around the object in a circular orbit, the projection measurements acquired by the cone-beam imaging geometry are incomplete and not enough for ar...
