Conventional breast imaging comprised mammography, ultrasound and core biopsy according to the guidelines of the United Kingdom National Health Service Breast Screening Programme (NHSBSP) (Wilson et al, 2001).
Routine imaging comprised nearly 50% of total costs for follow-up in stage I/II and in stage III.
Cognition, quality of life, functional fitness, level of physical activity, plasma biomarkers for cerebrovascular disease and amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) imaging comprise secondary measures.
A corneal imaging probe comprised of 3 achromat doublet lenses (Edmund Optics) and a pair of galvanometric scanners (Cambridge Technologies) was designed for in-vivo imaging of the human cornea.
Blankenberg and co-workers described a novel imaging complex comprised of a standardized 99mTc-radiolabelled adapter protein non-covalently bound to a "docking tag" fused to a "targeting protein".
After the control algorithms were programmed in both C++ and Labview, the adaptive optics of the imaging system comprised of five elements, the deformable mirror, the wavefront sensor, the control algorithm based on wavefront sensing, the pupil tracker and finally the control algorithm based on pupil tracking.
A non-imaging concentrator comprised of eight flat reflective panels is linked via a cylindrical light guide to a cooking pan that sits at convenient height in a reflective cooking enclosure to minimise radiant and convective losses.
Although use of imaging comprises only a small proportion of the fiscal impact of cancer, its use has been increasing over recent decades, causing concern amongst funders of health care and efforts to constrain the use of new imaging tests with a relatively high unit cost.
Molecular imaging comprises a cluster of technologies allowing the measurement of biological events that are relevant for the understanding and the monitoring of prostate cancer, especially when it becomes resistant to treatments.
Computer-assisted mammography imaging comprises computer-based analysis of digitized images resulting in prompts aiding mammographic interpretation and computerized stereotactic localization devices which improve location accuracy.
The imaging probe is comprised of 3 achromatic doublet lenses (Edmund Optics, f1 = 20mm, f2 = f3 = 35mm) and a pair of galvanometric scanners (Cambridge Technologies).
