The coarse-grain parallelization of protocol tasks and synchronization via queues and message passing are a good match for the parallel processor core environment.
Compliance with protocol tasks was≥90% in 4 of 5 categories (anticoagulation, hemostasis scoring, recording blood loss, protocol transfusion) with the exception being submission of laboratory samples (76%).
This is difficult to apply in clinical practice due to practical reasons (short duration of the fMRI protocol, tasks should be easy to perform by patients).
The protocol consists of three sub-protocols accordingly – a trajectory protocol, task control protocol and status protocol – which are deployed over the Ethernet and run as independent processes in both the client and server computers.
This will necessitate standardization of fMRI protocols (tasks and analyses), and their validation in different clinical populations [Allen and Fong, 2008; Binder et al., 2008; Rutten et al., 2002].
The researcher showed the selection of exercises and performance of the calibration protocol and tasks for the test.
In contrast, in a practice implementation, new protocol driven tasks are given to professional care providers who may be unable to divert from their normal practice.
All phases of the scan protocol (cue, task, pain rating, and countback) were modeled, though only the task periods were used in contrasts.
Many of the rank-and-file staffers were alarmed, not just because the questions seemed designed to impugn NATO's legitimacy but because they represented a breach of protocol by tasking N.S.C. staffers with political duties.
At comparative AZ, depending on protocol and task, the dose requirement for the optimal technique (optimized kVp with IRIS) was 2-3 times lower than that for standard technique (120 kVp with FBP).
Method and tool development were based on two major goals: 1) to assess the major sources of variation in fMRI studies conducted across scanners, including instrumentation, acquisition protocols, challenge tasks, and analysis methods, and 2) to provide a distributed network infrastructure and an associated federated database to host and query large, multi-site, fMRI and clinical data sets.
