Many postmenopausal women have vitamin D and calcium deficiency. Therefore, vitamin D and calcium supplementation is recommended for all patients with osteopenia and osteoporosis. We used an experimental rat model to test the hypothesis that induction of osteoporosis is more efficiently achieved in peripheral bone through combining ovariectomy with a ... Read more >>

<h4>Introduction</h4>Thrombosis of the cerebral veins and sinus are common causes of stroke. Animal models help us to understand the underlying pathophysiology of this condition. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to evaluate a well-established model for sinus sagittalis (SSS) thrombosis using micro- and nanocomputed tomography (CT) imaging.<h4>Methods</h4>SSS thrombosis was ...

<h4>Purpose</h4>To determine the accuracy of the two-point Patlak plot in the calculation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR).<h4>Materials and methods</h4>Fifty patients without acute renal disorder were included. GFR was calculated by using a two-point Patlak plot technique. The computed tomography (CT) protocol consisted of a plain examination followed by two contrast ... Read more >>

<h4>Objective</h4>In the past decade, elevated homocysteine concentration has achieved widespread recognition as an independent risk factor in the development of atherosclerosis. 3-Deazaadenosine (c3Ado) is a potent inhibitor and substrate for S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase and therefore may reduce homocysteine concentrations. The current study investigated the effect of c3Ado on serum homocysteine, atherosclerotic ... Read more >>

<h4>Purpose</h4>To evaluate the feasibility of micro-computed tomography (CT) for analysis of the lung fine structure and its alterations during endotoxin-induced lung injury.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>Intravital perfusion-fixed rat lungs with (n = 5) and without (n = 5) endotoxin perfusion were scanned with micro-CT. Three imaging modalities (conventional histology, intravital microscopy, and ... Read more >>

<h4>Purpose</h4>To evaluate the feasibility of micro computed tomography (CT) for analysis of the coronary artery wall.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>With micro CT, two-dimensional transverse images were generated from 10 human autopsy specimens of coronary arteries (2.5-3.5 cm long), with section thickness of 6 microm. Vessel wall perimeter, plaque area, calcified lesion area, ... Read more >>
