conclusions test-retest and correlation analyses have identified non-redundant radiomics features and this feature are prone to errors if they employed as quantitative biomarker for gbm image analysis. however when we use robust and redundant feature, quantitative image radiomics features are informative and prognostic biomarkers for gbm magnetic resonance imaging. results results shows that th...

Background: The characteristic clinical presentation of glomus tumors and the low negative predictive value of themagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) raise the question whether MRI improves their management. Therefore, this studyaimed to investigate whether MRI improved the management of glomus tumors.Methods: In total, 87 patients with a histologically confirmed glomus tumor wer...

symptomatic laryngeal chondrometaplasia is rare. to the best of our knowledge, there are only few case reports on laryngeal chondrometaplasia. the imaging appearance of this uncommon disease is even more rarely described. there are only two case reports describing its appearances in computed tomography (ct) and magnetic resonance imaging (mri). ultrasound (us) features have not been reported so...

background: in this study the basic radiation properties of n-isopropylacrylamaide polymer gel dosimeter were determined together with verification of its soft tissue equivalency. materials and methods: the nipam gel was prepared and irradiated approximately 2 h after manufacturing. the magnetic resonance (mr) images were made 24 h after irradiation. the nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr) respons...

purpose t1wi (t1 weighted image) was acquired in order to grade bone fusion following the studies by fifa (federation internationale de football associations). research using images other than t1wi has not been reported. the aim of this study is to evaluate the grade of epiphyseal fusion by t2* weighted images (t2*wi) and to investigate new findings on t2*wi as compared with t1wi. methods a tot...

A method for optimizing MR imaging pulse sequence parameters in a statistical framework is presented. Parameters are defined to be optimal when the resulting scalar images yield optimal image segmentations using Bayesian pixel classification. Thus, Bayes risk is used as the objective function to minimize. Approximations are made to give a tractable solution in a four-step procedure. A sample ca...
