Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive method for treating various neurological and psychiatric disorders. This paper focuses on a technical as-pect of this treatment method for neuropathic pain that can be caused by a lesion or disease of the central or peripheral nervous system, including stroke, trauma or surgical operation. rTMS uses electromagnetic induction to...
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy has emerged as a sensitive modality to detect early and diffuse alterations in multiple sclerosis. Recently, the hypothesis of neurodegenerative pathogenesis has highlightened the interest for measurement of metabolites concentrations, to gain specificity, in a large brain volume encompassing different tissue alterations. Therefore, we proposed in this paper the implementation...
This paper studies the use of the innovative concept of MRI-targeted drug delivery platform for robotic targeting of magnetized aerosol in the lungs. The goal is to increase dramatically the therapeutic effectiveness by increasing the aerosol drug concentration in the lesion while reducing its presence in healthy lung tissues. For this purpose, a parametric analysis is conducted to specify the magnetic...
In this paper MR-based attenuation method was implemented for a clinical whole-body PET/MR system. While awaiting future clinical evaluation, the algorithm seems promising from preliminary patient data evaluation, from both qualitative PET image quality and quantification accuracy. While the 3-segment MRAC resembles the results from short PET transmission scans, future work will be to implement and...
In the era of molecular imaging, Diffusion Weighted Imaging is impacting dramatically upon virtually all areas of clinical medicine. DWI should be able to identify key biochemical changes, much before the pathology becomes detectable by other functional imaging methods. Molecular imaging through magnetic resonance could be potentially suited for screening and repeated monitoring since it entails no...
