Effect of cationic disorder on the energy generation and energy storage applications of Ni Co S thiospinel.

Thiospinels show interesting catalytic and energy storage applications, however, the cationic disorder can have major influence on the energy generation and/or energy storage applications. In this study, the effect of stoichiometric variation of metals in a thiospinel Ni Co S, is examined on energy generation and storage properties. Nickel- or cobalt-rich Ni Co S nanosheets were prepared by the hot injection method using single molecular precursors.

Safety and effectiveness of single- versus triple-dose gadodiamide injection- enhanced MR angiography of the abdomen: a phase III double-blind multicenter study.

Purpose: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of gadodiamide-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) angiography with single and triple doses in the assessment of abdominal arterial stenoses.

Materials And Methods: One hundred five patients were included in the randomized, double-blind, phase III multicenter trial. Results of MR angiography with 0.

Post-operative lumbar spine: comparative study of TSE T2 and turbo-FLAIR sequences vs contrast-enhanced SE T1.

Aim: To compare turbo T2 weighted spin echo (TSE T2) and turbo-FLAIR (fluid attenuated inversion recovery) vs gadolinium enhanced T1 weighted spin echo (SE T1) sequence in the differential diagnosis between disc herniation and post-surgical fibrosis.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-four patients who underwent surgical treatment for lumbar disc herniation with persistent or recurrent post-surgical symptoms were studied with a 0.5 Tesla MR system.

Lateral stabilizing structures of the knee: functional anatomy and injuries assessed with MR imaging.

The lateral aspect of the knee is stabilized by a complex arrangement of ligaments, tendons, and muscles. These structures can be demonstrated with routine spin-echo magnetic resonance (MR) imaging sequences performed in the sagittal, coronal, and axial planes. Anterolateral stabilization is provided by the capsule and iliotibial tract.
