conclusions the results of this study suggest that mri does not increase microleakage of amalgam restorations. results in teeth with amalgam filling, there were no significant differences of occlusal and gingival surface microleakage after mri exposure. occlusal and gingival surface microleakages were also similar with and without mri in teeth with bonded amalgam filling. materials and methods ...

background morphometric data of the frontal lobe are important for surgical planning of lesions in the frontal lobe and its surroundings. magnetic resonance imaging (mri) techniques provide suitable data for this purpose. objectives in our study, the morphometric data of mid-sagittal mri of the frontal lobe in certain age and gender groups of children have been presented. patients and methods i...

background: gliomas are the most common primary neoplasms of the central nervous system. relative cerebral blood volume (rcbv) could estimate high-grade gliomas computed with dynamic susceptibility contrast mr imaging which it is artificially lowered by contrast extravasation through a disrupted blood-brain barrier. objectives: our intent was to clarify the usefulness of diffusion-weighted magn...

this study was conducted to evaluate how neuroimaging procedures (mri, spect) could be used in clinical setting for diagnosis of dementia.forty out of 94 patients suspected of having a diagnosis of dementia, referred to radiology department for consecutive neuroimaging procedures, were selected. patients’ medical records reviewed anda retrospective diagnosis was reached according to dsm-iv for ...

we report a patient diagnosed with whipple's disease (wd) who presented only with neurological symptoms. neuroimaging (mri) showed lesions with marked mass effect similar to infiltrative tumors, which were hypersignal on long tr and hyposignal on short tr images, located in several areas of the brain. in serial controls, lesions resolved with gliosis and atrophic changes as well as migration of...

conclusions pet/ct can provide diagnosis and more accurate staging, location of tumor with its capability in providing the anatomical and physiological information synchronizes. therefore pet/ct plays an important role in oncology. objectives in this paper, we evaluate application of pet/ct for improve oncologic imaging. methods the papers were searched in pubmed and scopus databases with the r...

introduction: radiolabeled antibiotics are being used for the specific diagnosis of infection by exploiting their specific binding properties to the bacterial components, thereby making it possible to differentiate infection from sterile lesions. the aim of this work was to prepare and evaluate a freeze-dried kit of ciprofloxacin designed for the labeling with 99mtc. methods: factors like amou...

introduction: the gastrin releasing peptide (grp) receptor is over expressed in a variety of common human tumors. radiolabeled bombesin analogues have exhibited high binding affinity for these receptors. the aim of this study was to assess the value of a new 99mtc-bombesin analog in the differentiation of malignant from benign breast tumors. methods: 99mtc-bombesin scans were performed in 21 pa...

67gallium-bleomycin complex (67ga-blm) was prepared using thakour method. radio-thin-layer-chromatography of prepared complex showed a2 and b2 radiopeaks with rf at 0.7 and 0.4 respectively with a purity of above % 95. tissue uptake of 67ga-blm and 67gacl3 in twelve tissues including tumor, blood, liver, lung, spleen, muscle, skin, heart, kidney, colon, colon content ,bladder and the total body...
