Journal ArticleDOI

A pattern classification approach to characterizing solitary pulmonary nodules imaged on high resolution CT: preliminary results.

TL;DR: The preliminary results of this approach are very promising in characterizing solitary nodules using quantitative measures extracted from HRCT images, and future work involves including contrast enhancement and three-dimensional Measures extracted from volumetric CT scans, as well as the use of several pattern classifiers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biophysical changes in normal-appearing white matter and subcortical nuclei in late-life major depression detected using magnetization transfer

TL;DR: The findings indicate that the structure of the macromolecular protein matrix may be compromised in normal-appearing white matter and critical subcortical nuclei in patients with late-life major depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hepatic encephalopathy: A neurochemical, neuroanatomical, and neuropsychological study

TL;DR: This study partially confirms a hypothesized mechanism of HE pathogenesis, an increased synthesis of glutamine by brain glutamate in astrocytes due to excessive blood ammonia, followed by a compensatory loss of myo‐inositol to maintainAstrocyte volume homeostasis and indicates that the hyperintensity observed in globus pallidus could be used as complementary to the NP test scores in evaluating the mental health of HE patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-dimensional MR spectroscopic characterization of breast cancer in vivo.

TL;DR: Better accuracy of identifying carcinomas and fatty tissues is reported using CART analysis of different combinations of ratios calculated from the relative levels of water, choline, and saturated and unsaturated lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetization transfer imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy of normal-appearing white matter in late-life major depression

TL;DR: To examine the relationships between the damaged macromolecular pool seen on magnetization transfer (MT) imaging and cerebral metabolic changes recorded by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), in frontal white and gray matter regions of late‐life MDD patients.
