Clinical data were collected from patient files, including TNM stage, tumour localisation, time of relapse, treatment, and cause of death.
Data pertaining to demographics, TNM staging, grading, histology, completeness of resection, adjuvant treatment, localisation, time and characteristics of metastases, surgical interventions, outcomes and type of treatment institution (centre specialized in liver surgery or regional hospital) were reviewed for each patient and entered into a database.
In this way, the prostate may be clearly visualised against the surrounding normal anatomy and localisation times were reduced to less than 5 min. Whilst this is an interesting approach which mirrors the use of the MPRs for target localisation, in this patient group it did require the administration of both bladder and rectal contrast in order to achieve sufficient tissue definition on the DRRs.
The same patterns of drug and photosensitiser localisation over time were seen for MGHU1 cell lines.
Marker clip placement can play a crucial role in ensuring accurate localisation at the time of surgery and can aid identification of residual disease for the pathologist.
A total of nine different operating modes of GPS receiver are evaluated by each design parameter, namely power consumption, localisation accuracy and time with no position available in multipath scenarios.
Since the 1990s, the wavelet transforms is being more and more often applied as they offer a unique advantage over conventional Fourier transforms; thanks to their unique time localisation property, information is provided not only about the frequency of features present but also their location in the time series.
Both compounds were observed to be excreted in the urine, in accordance with the kidney localisation at earlier time points.
For numbers of patients seen per week, we identified that working time, localisation in either a western or eastern federal state and proportion of privately insured patients were significantly associated with the number of patients seen per week.
Date of initial diagnosis and of relapse, IGCCCG-stage (1997), UICC-stage (Sobin and Wittekind, 2002), tumour localisation at the time of relapse, date of start and type of primary and relapse treatment, and serum tumour markers before initial treatment and at time of relapse were retrieved from medical records.
Although we identified that working time, localisation in either a western or eastern federal state and the proportion of privately insured patients are significantly associated with the number of patients seen per week, the highest impact on the number of patients seen per week is most likely the reimbursement system in Germany [ 23].
