Sentence examples for scans and the development from inspiring English sources

Complete response (CR) is defined as the disappearance of all signs and symptoms of disease for at least 1 month, with the documented disappearance of all known lesions by physical examination, X-rays, CT scans, bone scans, and the development of no new lesions.

The growing use of NOM for blunt abdominal organ injury has been made possible because of the progress made in the quality and availability of the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) scan and the development of minimally invasive intervention options such as angioembolization.

We have assessed both the initial response to treatment (that is, between the baseline and the first on-treatment scan) and the development of acquired resistance to TKI treatment.

Diagnosis can be made antenatally - something which has become increasingly common since the routine implementation of 20-week fetal anomaly scanning and the development of modern ultrasonography [ 2] - or following symptom presentation in the post natal period.

Moreover more sensitive imaging techniques (Multislice computed tomography [CT], magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], positron emission tomography [PET] scan) and the development of methods to detect micrometastatic disease (i.e. circulating tumor cells) permit diagnosis of an increasing proportion of patients with oligometastatic disease.

Two core elements of the FRESHER Foresight process are the implementation of a horizon scanning process and the development of future health scenarios built on the results of the horizon scanning.

With the improving capabilities of scanning nanoprobes and the development of AFM dynamical modes, there are new avenues open to investigate and to manipulate a small amount of liquid, typically 10−17 L. For instance, phenomena occurring at the triple contact line where liquid confinement occurs can be investigated [9].

A traditional preference for sons and the development of ultrasound scanning technology is thought to have interacted with the one-child policy to create an epidemic of selective abortions.

For samples prepared with low deposition rates (deposited by a combination of RF and DC reactive magnetron sputtering) both symmetric and asymmetric XRD scans showed the development of crystalline phases whose structure is very similar to that of bulk TiN.

Further approaches to realize 3D scanning combine tunable optical components with standard microscope optics, including the use of deformable mirrors for axial scanning [ 15] and the development of high-speed tunable lenses for fast focusing [ 16].

Similarly, MRI scanning is in widespread clinical use and the development of novel imaging protocols and validation and qualification of their use means that these techniques can readily be translated into clinical practice.
