MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has developed into one of the most versatile techniques in clinical imaging and biomedical research by providing non-invasively high resolution‚ three-dimensional anatomical and contrast-enhanced images of living tissue. The two most common groups of contrast-enhancing agents are gadolinium-based complexes and magnetic nanoparticles. Both types of contrast agents shorten locally the relaxation time of bulk water protons via rapid exchange

provide recommendations for turning around Kodak’s digital imaging business. Corporation Strategy Diversification in Medical and Commercial sector Between 1983 and 1993‚ Kodak adopted unrelated diversification strategy by expanding its business in health care and chemical industry with high profit potential. During that decade‚ Kodak acquired several pharmaceutical and bioscience companies‚ it also expanded its range of medical imaging products. This strategy could bring Kodak extra market share

1 Molecular-Orbital Theory Introduction Orbitals in molecules are not necessarily localized on atoms or between atoms as suggested in the valence bond theory. Molecular orbitals can also be formed the LCAO where more than two atomic orbitals are used. (Technically‚ we can use all of the atomic orbitals in the LCAO.) Linear combinations of orbitals result in the interference of waves. Both constructive and destructive interference may result. Within a diatomic molecule‚ N atomic orbitals

arena. I had my first glimpse at molecular biology then. But that brief introduction to molecular biology was enough to compel me to the idea that I want to spend my whole life working and conducting research on it. That passion and zeal brought me to where right now I am. I have successfully completed my masters from the Department of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology‚ University of Dhaka. I want to note that very few universities offer courses related to molecular biology here in Bangladesh but

The decision to perform CT/CBCT imaging depends on both the initial radiographic valuation and the clinical findings. If the plain radiographs are negative‚ with no signs of fracture‚ no fluid levels‚ no mucosal thickening of the sinuses‚ and no orbital or soft tissue emphysema and there is no indication of penetrating injury‚ then the chance of finding a significant midface fracture on CT/CBCT evaluation. There are very high incidence of intracranial damage in such patients‚ and there are important

Current Issues in Brain Imaging Technology Brain imaging technology has revolutionized the way doctors‚ scientists‚ and researchers are able to see the workings of this highly complex organ. The use of brain imaging techniques allows for discovery without the use of invasive surgical procedures. Now used throughout the globe‚ these techniques have matured dramatically in the last century. With its roots in the early twentieth century using low-tech devices‚ brain imaging has evolved dramatically

History and Science Behind MRI: Open or Closed Case? Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been called one of the most comprehensive and efficacious diagnostic imaging modalities in medical history. It became a viable clinical technique in 1982 and during its relatively short lifetime has become the primary imaging modality for investigations of the brain‚ spinal cord‚ spine‚ cancellous bone‚ and joints. It is widely used for the identification and staging of tumors‚ investigations of large

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of scan that produces detailed images of the inside of the body using radio waves and strong magnetic fields without using radiation. An MRI scanner is a large tube that contains powerful magnets. During the scan‚ you lie inside the tube. Almost any part of the body can be examined using an MRI‚ including the brain and spinal cord‚ bones and joints‚ heart and blood vessels‚ internal organs‚ and breasts. MRI scans are safe and painless. Almost everyone

What would you expect to happen if you added ddCTP (shown in a) to a DNA synthesis reaction in vitro in large excess over the concentration of deoxycytidine triphosphate (dCTP)? How will this affect the pattern of bands on the sequencing gel? The ddCTP lacks the OH‚ which is required for elongation
