Internet2-based 3D PET image reconstruction using a PC cluster.

We describe an approach to fast iterative reconstruction from fully three-dimensional (3D) PET data using a network of PentiumIII PCs configured as a Beowulf cluster. To facilitate the use of this system, we have developed a browser-based interface using Java. The system compresses PET data on the user's machine, sends these data over a network, and instructs the PC cluster to reconstruct the image.

Transplant renal artery stenosis: hypertension and graft function before and after angioplasty.

We present a case, who after 15 years of renal transplantation developed severe deterioration of her hypertension without alteration in renal function. Colour Doppler sonography revealed a 90% stenosis near the anastomosis of the graft artery to iliac artery, which was successfully and uneventfully corrected by percutaneous balloon angioplasty. Following the procedure the blood pressure control dramatically improved and her antihypertensive regimen returned and remained at baseline for the subsequent year of observation.
