introduction: one of the major causes of image non-uniformity in mri is due to the existence of  non-homogeneity in rf receive and transmit. this can be the most effective source of error in  quantitative  studies  in  mri  imaging.  part  of  this  non-homogeneity  demonstrates  the  characteristics of rf coil and part of it is due to the interaction of rf field with the material being  imaged...

تصویربرداری مقطع‌نگاری نوترونی یکی از کاربردهای مدرن رآکتورهای تحقیقاتی در سرتاسر جهان به‌شمار می‌رود. تلفیق قابلیت نمایش سه‌بعدی با ویژگی‌های منحصر به فرد برهم‌کنش نوترون مواد، می‌تواند اطلاعات بسیار ارزشمندی ساختار داخلی مواد و تجهیزات را اختیار محققین قرار ‌دهد. این تحقیق، تأثیر هندسه داده‌برداری تجربی روش بازسازی تصویر بر کیفیت تصاویر سامانه رآکتور تهران براساس شاخص وضوح میزان تولید نویز مو...

prevalence of thyroid nodules diagnosed by ultrasonography has been reported to be high (about 50%) probably due to iodine deficiency in our region. most thyroid nodules benign but some require treatment for cosmetic reasons or subjective symptoms. the conventional method of treatment in iran is surgery. for the first time in iran, from february 2016, 50 patients with 63 nodules (solid or cysti...

Background: Over the past several years, the rapidly increasing use of mobile phones has raised global concerns about the biological effects of exposure to radiofrequency (RF) radiation. Numerous studies have shown that exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can be associated with effects on the nervous, endocrine, immune, cardiovascular, hematopoietic and ocular systems. In spite of genetic...

Trinidad has tar sand resources of about 2 billion barrels of oil on land in the Parrylands/Guapo and Brighton areas. With an oil price of over USD 25 per barrel, the commercial extraction of oil from Trinidad tar sands is viable, but it requires a careful study. The relatively small extent of this tar sand (about 10,000 acres and with depths varying from surface to less than 500 feet) and with...

The computation of structural failure probability is vital importance in the reliability analysis and may be carried out on the basis of the first-order reliability method using various mathematical iterative approaches such as Hasofer-Lind and Rackwitz-Fiessler (HL-RF). This method may not converge in complicated problems and nonlinear limit state functions, which usually shows itself in the f...

Rhododendron dauricum L. is an ancient Chinese traditional herb. The pharmacological effects of R. dauricum extract have been shown in chronic tracheitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the cardiovascular effects of Rhododendron dauricum L. flavonoids (RF) on rats and its mechanisms. This study was performed in isolated vascular rings and a rat model of myocardial infarction and isola...
