Abstract Aim To investigate and improve doctors’ knowledge of fasting requirements for surgical patients undergoing imaging. Introduction Surgical require prompt radiological imaging to confirm diagnoses rapidly initiate management. Fasting regimes prior different techniques are confusing poorly understood but essential prime image quality. Poor these delays scans leads suboptimal patient-care....

the crystals of [ws (cuncs) ] anion have been isolated from ch ,ci solution and examined by x-ray structural analysis as well as by ir spectroscopy. the unit cell is monoclinic with a= 14.3796(13), b= 18.039(1 i), c= 22.5956(23)& p= 96.053(8)', space group p2,/n (14), z= 4. the crystal structure was refined by the least-squares calculations to a final r-value of 0.0398(rw= 0.0443) for 2777...

The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the state art radiomics in testicular imaging by assessing quality radiomic workflow using Radiomics Quality Score (RQS) and Assessment Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 (QUADAS-2). A literature search performed find potentially relevant articles on applications imaging, 6 final were extracted. mean RQS 11,33 ± 3,88 resulting a percentage 31,48% 10,...

This paper describes the research carried out to develop a process to increase the NaCl percentage of crude salt which is obtained from the conventional solar evaporation process. In this study refined salt was produced from crude solar salt by a chemicophysical method which consists of coagulation, precipitation and filtration. Initially crude salt crystals were crushed and dissolved in water....

this study investigated the effect of carboxymethyl cellulose (cmc), tragacanth, and saalab hydrocolloids in two concentrations (0.3 and 0.7%) and different frying media (refined canola oil (rco), rco+1% bene kernel oil (bko), and rco+1 mg l-1 unsaponifiable matter (usm) of bko on acrylamide formation in fried potato slices. the hydrocolloid coatings significantly reduced acrylamide formation i...

Protein-based drugs are the fastest growing class of drugs for the treatment of disease in humans and other animals. However, the current method of producing proteins for pharmaceutical application is predicted to fall short because of population growth and demographic trends. This study characterized human dietary risks using quantitative risk assessment techniques for three pharmaceutical pro...

to the best of our knowledge, imaging of accidental exposure to radioactive fluorine-18 (f-18) due to liquid spill has not been described earlier in the scientific literature. the short half-life of f-18 (t½=110 min), current radiation safety requirements, and good manufacturing practice (gmp) regulations on radiopharmaceuticals have restrained the occurrence of these incidents. the possibility...

background edible salt is the most commonly used food additive worldwide. therefore, any contamination of table salt could be a health hazard. objectives the present study aimed to determine the levels of heavy metals in table and bakery refined salts. materials and methods eighty-one table refined salt samples and the same number of bakery refined salt samples were purchased from retail market...

Assessment of the quality and current performance computed tomography (CT) radiomics-based models in predicting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status patients with non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Two medical literature databases were systematically searched, articles presenting original studies on CT for EGFR retrieved. Forest plots related statistical tests performed t...
