background recently, assessment of the atrial motion and deformation indices obtained via doppler myocardial imaging (dmi) has been proposed as a new method of exploring the atrial function. objective our aim was to assess the right atrial (ra) regional function using myocardial velocities, strain, and strain rate imaging (sri) and compare it with the function of the inter-atrial septum (ias) a...

mg(oh)2 nanoparticles were synthesized by a rapid microwave reaction. the effect of sodium dodecyl sulfonate (sds as anionic surfactant) and cetyl tri-methyl ammonium bromide (ctab as cationic surfactant) on the morphology of magnesium hydroxide nanostructures was investigated. multi wall carbon nano tubes was organo-modified for better dispersion in cellulose acetate matrix. the influence of m...

conclusions according to our multimodality imaging approach, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was the most probable diagnosis. case presentation we describe a 73-year-old woman referred to us for consultation because of a giant negative t wave on her electrocardiography. echocardiography revealed diffuse severe hypertrophy associated with hypertrophied anterolateral papillary muscles with a bifid he...

Microwave imaging has received a great amount of interest in last few decades in view of biomedical applications such as breast tumor detection. The potential advantages of microwave imaging as an alternative to X ray Computed Tomography (CT) are: i) the non negligible contrast that exists between the dielectric properties of normal and malignant breast tissues, ii) the non-ionizing nature of m...
