Quantitative T2 Mapping of Acute Pancreatitis

Background: Quantification of the T2 signal by means of T2 mapping in acute pancreatitis (AP) has the potential to quantify the parenchymal edema. Quantitative T2 mapping may overcome the limitations of previously reported scoring systems for reliable assessment of AP. Purpose: To evaluate MR-derived pancreatic T2 mapping values in AP and correlate them with markers of disease severity. Study Type: Prospective single-center study. Population: 76 adults with AP (20-91 years, females/males: 39/37). Field Strength/Sequence: Fat suppressed multiecho spin-echo prototype sequence to quantify T2 signal at 3T MRI. Assessment: The severity of AP was assessed clinically, biologically, and by contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) performed 48-72 hours after symptom onset. MRI was then performed

Pancréatite aiguë

La pancréatite aiguë est une maladie consistant en une inflammation rapide du pancréas. En fonction de sa gravité, elle peut avoir de graves complications et une grande mortalité malgré le traitement. Alors que les cas modérés se normalisent grâce à des mesures conservatives ou à l’endoscopie, les cas graves nécessitent une chirurgie (souvent plus d’une intervention) pour endiguer l’évolution de la maladie. La maladie était connue avant le , mais son mécanisme non élucidé.

Test de Student

En statistique, un test de Student, ou test t, désigne n'importe quel test statistique paramétrique où la statistique de test calculée suit une loi de Student lorsque l’hypothèse nulle est vraie. gauche|vignette|Façade de la brasserie historique Guinness de St. James. vignette|William Sealy Gosset, qui inventa le test t, sous le pseudonyme Student. Le test de Student et la loi de probabilités qui lui correspond ont été publiés en 1908 dans la revue Biometrika par William Gosset.

Pancréatite

Pancreatitis is a condition characterized by inflammation of the pancreas. The pancreas is a large organ behind the stomach that produces digestive enzymes and a number of hormones. There are two main types: acute pancreatitis, and chronic pancreatitis. Signs and symptoms of pancreatitis include pain in the upper abdomen, nausea and vomiting. The pain often goes into the back and is usually severe. In acute pancreatitis, a fever may occur, and symptoms typically resolve in a few days.

Saliency prediction in 360° architectural scenes: Performance and impact of daylight variations

Marilyne Andersen, Sabine Süsstrunk, Caroline Karmann, Bahar Aydemir, Kynthia Chamilothori, Seungryong Kim

Saliency models are image-based prediction models that estimate human visual attention. Such models, when applied to architectural spaces, could pave the way for design decisions where visual attention is taken into account. In this study, we tested the pe ...

Towards a multiscale point cloud structural similarity metric

Touradj Ebrahimi

Point clouds are effective data structures for the rep- resentation of three-dimensional media and hence adopted in a wide range of practical applications. In many cases, the portrayed data is expected to be visualized by humans. After acquisition, point c ...

Value of T-2 Mapping MRI for Prostate Cancer Detection and Classification

Tom Hilbert

Background Currently, multi-parametric prostate MRI (mpMRI) consists of a qualitative T-2, diffusion weighted, and dynamic contrast enhanced imaging. Quantification of T-2 imaging might further standardize PCa detection and support artificial intelligence ...
