Alternative techniques of seeding cultured endothelial cells to ePTFE grafts of different diameters, porosities, and surfaces
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1987-08)
Attachment of 111 Indium-oxine labeled cultured canine venous endothelial cells to expanded polytetrafluorethylene (ePTFE) grafts was evaluated in vitro . Three alternative seeding techniques were studied in grafts having ...
Papaverine effects on PGI2 and TXA2 release from the canine vascular wall
(Elsevier, 1992-07)
Operative manipulation of blood vessels might lead to spasm, thereby destroying the endothelial cell function: the spasm can be prevented by the vasodilator papaverine. To study if this was mediated via the prostanoid ...
Computer analysis of physiologic signals in a cardiovascular research laboratory
(Elsevier, 1991)
A comprehensive computer program which provides immediate computation and feedback has been developed for data acquisition and analysis of signals in a cardiovascular animal laboratory. The system is based on a microcomputer ...
System Design and Implementation of a National Image Registry for Orthopaedic Oncology Image Management, Research and Teaching
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2003-12)
Orthopaedic oncology is highly dependent on imaging studies to diagnose and treat patients. However, many types of bone tumors are rare creating a lack of teaching and research cases. We have developed a system to locally ...
Diffusion imaging for evaluation of tumor therapies in preclinical animal models
(Springer-Verlag; ESMRMB, 2004-12)
The increasing development of novel targeted therapies for treating solid tumors has necessitated the development of technology to determine their efficacy in preclinical animal models. One such technology that can ...
Effect of CT scanning parameters on volumetric measurements of pulmonary nodules by 3D active contour segmentation: a phantom study
(2008)
"The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of CT scanning and reconstruction parameters on automated segmentation and volumetric measurements of nodules in CT images. Phantom nodules of known sizes were used ...
Local release polymeric-controlled immunotherapy of cardiac transplants in rats
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1992-10)
Systemic immunosuppression frequently results in severe side effects. To evaluate a method of limiting the adverse effects of immunosuppression, we implanted controlled release matrices containing cyclosporine-A (Cy) ...
