background: tumor response after multimodality treatment using combination of radiation, chemotherapeutic drugs and hyperthermia usually assessed by parameters such as tumor growth delay, volume doubling time and regression response. the study herein was conducted to investigate the usefulness of micronucleus assay for assessing the multimodality treatment. materials and methods: the induction ...

background: ewing sarcoma family of tumors (esfts) is the second most common primary tumors of bone in childhood. the decision regarding the optimal modality for achieving local tumor control remains uncertain. the aim of this study was to report the clinical features and outcome as well as reviewing risk factors in patients. materials and methods: this retrospective study included 75 esfts pat...

Multimodality small-animal molecular imaging has become increasingly important as transgenic and knockout mice are produced to model human diseases. With the ever-increasing number and importance of human disease models, particularly in rodents (mice and rats), the ability of high-resolution multimodality molecular imaging instrumentation to contribute unique information is becoming more common...

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...

Recent publications on multidimensional scaling express contradicting opinion on multimodality of STRESS criterion. An example has been published with rigorously provable multimodality of STRESS. We present an example of data and the rigorous proof of multimodality of SSTRESS for this data. Some comments are included on widely accepted opinion that minimization of SSTRESS is easier than minimiz...

In this paper we define our position regarding current research questions in the field of designing speech and multimodal interactions for mobile and wearable applications. Our argumentation is organized in three areas reflecting our following basic research questions questions: (1) what are the benefits that can emerge through multimodality, (2) how can these benefits be considered in the syst...

OBJECTIVE The arrival of precision medicine plan brings new opportunities and challenges for patients undergoing precision diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumors. With the development of medical imaging, information on different modality imaging can be integrated and comprehensively analyzed by imaging fusion system. This review aimed to update the application of multimodality imaging fusi...

INTRODUCTION Multimodality therapy with chemotherapy and operative resection is recommended for patients with locoregional pancreatic cancer but is not received by many patients. OBJECTIVE To evaluate patterns in the use and timing of chemotherapy and resection and factors associated with receipt of multimodality therapy in older patients with locoregional pancreatic cancer. METHODS We used...
