introduction: computed tomography (ct) is an imaging technique with gives us an opportunity to review cross sections of the body in live animals. in veterinary medicine although ct is mostly used for diagnostic purposes in small animals, but in recent years ct also has been used as a non invasive modality in non clinical studies. jebeer gazelle (gazella bennettii) is one of the species of the g...

background: methanol is a colorless and poisonous liquid that is commonly used as an industrial and household solvent. methanol poisoning is a rare but extremely hazardous form of in toxication that affects the central nervous system and causes visual disorder, drowsiness, seizures and coma.  case presentation: a 29-years-old man with methanol intoxication presented with drowsiness and acidosis...

polymer gel dosimeter is the only accurate three dimensional (3d) dosimeter that can measure the absorbed dose distribution in a perfect 3d setting. gel dosimetry by using optical computed tomography (oct) has been promoted by several researches. in the current study, we designed and constructed a prototype oct system for gel dosimetry. first, the electrical system for optical scanning of the g...

introduction: in this study, arrangement of a low-cost optical tomography device compared to other methods such as frequency domain diffuse tomography or time domain diffuse tomography is reported. this low-cost diffuse optical imaging technique is based on the detection of light after propagation in tissue. these detected signals are applied to predict the location of in-homogeneities inside p...

introduction:visualization of inner ear structures is a valuable strategy for researchers and clinicians working on hearing pathologies. optical coherence tomography (oct) is a high-resolution imaging technology which may be used for the visualization of tissues. in this experimental study we aimed to evaluate inner ear anatomy in well-prepared human labyrinthine bones.materials and methods:thr...

This mage based series comprises of a quiz pertaining to the identification of salient anatomical structures expected to be seen at a given level on the computed tomography (CT) followed by examples of multiple representative pathologies that can be seen at the same level in a routine clinical setting. It is expected that this will improve confidence of nuclear physicians in interpretation of t...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of our study was to report the results of the implementation of computed tomography colonography in a university hospital setting serving a Brazilian population at high risk of colorectal cancer. METHODS After creating a computed tomography colonography service in our institution, 85 patients at high risk of colorectal cancer underwent computed tomography colonography f...

conclusion attending radiologists could diagnose acute appendicitis accurately on ne-ldct. performance of senior residents on ne-ldct is better than junior residents and comparable to attending radiologists. results diagnostic performances for acute appendicitis were not statistically different for attending radiologists at both examinations. better performance was noted on the ce-sdct with a b...

introduction: knowledge of the presence of the alveolar antral artery in the lateral maxillary sinus wall is essential for surgeons who operate in this region. the purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between alveolar antral artery diameter and lateral maxillary bony wall thickness in dentate patients.   materials and methods: thirty five cone-beam computed tomography (cbct)...

conclusion no significant differences were found among observers or voxel sizes, with high az results reported for all groups. results no significant differences were found among observers or voxel sizes, with high average z (az) results being reported for all groups. both intra- and inter-observer agreement values were relatively better for 3d accuitomo 170 images than the images from newtom 3...
