The unprecedented gray/white differentiation obtained with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
has created a unique opportunity to trace the normal process of myelination. Fifty-nine …

Absolute ethanol was used to perform nine transcatheter embolizations and 21 direct
percutaneous puncture embolizations in eight patients with unresectable vascular malformations. …

Symptomatic vascular malformations (SVMs) are a challenging problem to the interventional
radiologist. With modern catheter technology and newly developed techniques, …

Fifty calcified intracranial lesions diagnosed with computed tomography (CT) were evaluated
with magnetic resonance (MR) using a spin-echo sequence. MR images demonstrated 41 …

The results of an analytical treatment of the local low-frequency stability of weakly ionized
molecular-gas mixtures consisting of a diatomic molecular species and an atomic diluent are …

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of the infrarenal abdominal aorta has been reported
by a few authors. In the present series, aortic stenoses in 32 patients were treated with …

Foraging behavior in odontocetes is fundamentally tied to the use of sound. Resident-type
killer whales use echolocation to locate and capture elusive salmonid prey. In this …

The one-dimensional two-species quantum hydrodynamic model is considered in the limit of
small mass ratio of the charge carriers. Closure is obtained by adopting an equation of state …

This book provides an overview of the basic concepts and new methods in the emerging
scientific area known as quantum plasmas. In the near future, quantum effects in plasmas will …

Nitrification is a central process of the aquatic nitrogen cycle that controls the supply of nitrate
used in other key processes, such as phytoplankton growth and denitrification. Through …
