Hybrid PET/MR showed strong volume concordance between FDG PET, and T2-W and DW imaging in cervical cancer. Cut-off at 35 % or 40 % of SUV max is recommended for (18)F-FDG PET/MR SUV-based tumour volume estimation. The linear tumour subvolume concordance between FDG PET and DW imaging demonstrates individual regional concordance of metabolic activity and cell density.
Ultrasound modulated laser confocal feedback technology is proposed in the imaging inside turbid media. By selecting the detectable signal photons and rejecting the background noise photons in the frequency domain based on the ultrasound modulation, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) can be much improved, especially in the turbid media, compared with the traditional imaging without ultrasound modulation. This is a promising method to reach both a larger penetration depth and a better SNR than other optical methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
