The point source guided positioning method demonstrated low variability to obtain repeated lateral stifle scintigrams in horses of variable size, age and clinical status.
The point source guided positioning method is considered suitable as a reference standard method to obtain lateral scintigrams of the equine stifle, and it will be of value in clinical scintigraphy and research.
The point source guided method can also help to reduce the radiation dose received by the staff during scintigraphic examinations, since accurate camera positioning should be quicker, and repeat acquisitions due to oblique angles of view should be less frequent.
The purchase price of Google's acquisition of restaurant review and guide source Zagat has been pinpointed at $151 million in cash, according to an SEC filing by the company itself and reported by Reuters.
While the text is an important tool and reference, you'll want to "unlock the topic" and teach the students through your own knowledge of the subject, using the book for some materials, lessons and as a guide, source of many problems and exercises for assignments.
The consistent positioning produced using the point sources guided method makes it useful in a clinical situation.
The skin surface location of the phantom capsules relative to the femur could be considered a limitation of the point sources guided method.
The hypotheses were; the point sources guided method would result in a consistent FC angle for the lateral scintigram when horses were measured repeatedly, and that there would be low variation of the FC angle between horses.
We review three principles guiding the sourcing of restoration germplasm: (i) the appropriateness of using 'local' seed, (ii) sample sizes and population characteristics required to capture sufficient genetic diversity to establish self-sustaining populations and (iii) the impact of over-harvesting source populations.
The spatial filters are synthesized using a blind source separation method known as denoising source separation (DSS) that allows the measure of interest (here proportion of evoked power) to guide the source separation.
