When selecting the target lesion, we suggest avoiding metastases with very high T2-weighted signal intensity to avoid purely necrotic/cystic tumours and to select metastatic deposits with a diameter of greater than 3 cm.
We chose this relatively low intensity to avoid inducing any startle responses in the EMG signal [19].
When observed by fluorescence imaging (at low light intensity to avoid photosensitization of TMR), the peptide's fluorescence was diffusely distributed in the media (Fig. S5).
The photobleached area was determined on the computer screen with SlideBook software, and bleaching was achieved with the minimal intensity to avoid possible phototoxicity.
The IGRs were sorted by the range between the probe with the lowest intensity and the probe with the second highest intensity (to avoid spikes caused by single probes with high expression levels).
Radiotherapy dose intensities are typically selected to avoid an unacceptable frequency of severe adverse normal tissue reactions and hence, most patients could potentially tolerate RT dose escalation.
We took medians as representing intensities to avoid the effect of outliers, and loaded them into Subio platform software (Subio Inc., http://www.subio.jp) [ 117].
For routine examinations of food products, homogenization is usually performed for a rather short duration (e.g., 1-2 min) to save time and by using soft mechanical treatment (stomaching or blending at low intensities) to avoid loss of bacterial viability.
The raw data were normalized using the LOWESS normalization algorithm to avoid a systematic intensity based bias which is commonly observed with two-channel microarrays [ 31] and preliminary data processing of both data sets was performed according to [ 16].
Both Cook, who has averaged only 17 in the South Africa series but is 117 runs short of 10,000 in Test cricket, and the head coach, Trevor Bayliss, have been keen to avoid a drop in intensity from their side after losing the final Ashes Test of last summer having already completed the series win.
