Vitamin D and energy homeostasis-of mice and men

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino

The vitamin D endocrine system has many extraskeletal targets, including adipose tissue. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D-3, the active form of vitamin D, not only increases adipogenesis and the expression of typical adipocyte genes but also decreases the expressio ...

Assessment of the effect of haematocrit-dependent arterial input functions on the accuracy of pharmacokinetic parameters in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI

Nathalie Just

The detection and prognosis of prostate cancer in its early stages are critically important. It is therefore essential to improve the existing dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE MRI) techniques commonly used for the assessment of the tumour vascular enviro ...

Example-based Support Vector Machine for Drug Concentration Analysis

Giovanni De Micheli, Wenqi You Dubout

Machine learning has been largely applied to ana- lyze data in various domains, but it is still new to personalized medicine, especially dose individualization. In this paper, we focus on the prediction of drug concentrations using Support Vector Machines ...

Endoscopic Fluorescence Imaging

Blaise Lovisa

Since several decades, the physicians are able to access hollow organs with endoscopic methods, which serve both as diagnostic and surgical means in a wide range of disciplines of the modern medicine (e.g. urology, pneumology, gastroenterology). Unfortunat ...

Bladder cancer detection by fluorescence imaging with Hexvix®: Analysis and processing of images obtained during high magnification cystoscopy

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Blaise Lovisa

Fluorescence cystoscopy has been recently acknowledged as a useful method to detect early superficial bladder cancer, even flat lesions. After the instillation of hexaminolevulinic acid (Hexvix®) in the bladder for about an hour, photoactivable porphyrins ...
