Purpose Ultrasound neuromodulation is a promising noninvasive technique for controlling
neural activity. Previous small animal studies suffered from low targeting specificity because …

The development of phantom materials for elasticity imaging is reported in this paper. These
materials were specifically designed to provide nonlinear stress/strain relationship that can …

Paraffin-gel waxes have been investigated as new soft tissue–mimicking materials for
ultrasound-guided breast biopsy training. Breast phantoms were produced with a broad range of …

Aspects of magnetic resonance relaxation measurements in human tissues are discussed.
The influence of pulse sequences and parameters are compared and analyzed for different …

Phantoms mimicking the specific properties of biological tissues are essential to fully characterize
medical devices. Water-based materials are commonly used to manufacture phantoms …

Deficits of postural control and perceptions of verticality are disabling problems observed in
stroke patients that have been recently correlated to each other. However, there is no …

Biomedical application of magnetic nanoparticles is a rapidly growing research field. For
medical diagnostic purposes, these nanoparticles are mostly used as imaging contrast agents. …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a classic model of monophasic
neuronal and axonal injury, in which tissue damage mainly occurs at the moment of …

Objective: Nanotheranostic systems integrate therapeutic and diagnostic procedures using
nanotechnology. This type of approach has enabled the development of methods for early …

Objective: To test the accuracy and reproducibility of ultrasound and computed tomography (CT)
for the quantification of abdominal fat in correlation with the anthropometric, clinical, and …
