Experimental Investigation on Laser-Induced Electrochemical Silver Plating Technology.

The silver coating is widely used in electronic device manufacturing due to its excellent conductivity and soldering properties. Conventional preparation of local silver coating often uses the preplated silver, mask high-speed silver plating, and deplated silver processes. In this paper, the laser-induced electrodeposition technique is used to perform maskless laser-induced localized electrodeposition on a copper substrate preplated with a layer of silver.

The application of magnetic resonance imaging-guided microwave ablation for lung cancer.

Context: It is necessary to explore a minimally invasive, effective, and efficient treatment for those lung cancer patients who are poor candidates for surgery.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the application of microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of lung cancer.

Settings And Design: A total of 43 patients with 44 pulmonary lesions were examined following identical procedures before being randomly divided into two groups.

Diffusion-weighted imaging volume and diffusion-weighted imaging volume growth in acute stroke: associations with fluid-attenuated inversion recovery hyperintensities-diffusion-weighted imaging mismatch and functional outcome.

Purpose: This study assessed the association between diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) volume and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery vascular hyperintensity (FVH)-DWI mismatch, functional outcome in patients with acute stroke patients receiving endovascular therapy, as well as the value of DWI volume in predicting functional outcome with stroke patients.

Methods: In 38 stroke patients who received endovascular therapy, FVH-DWI mismatch, DWI volume on admission, DWI volume on follow-up, DWI volume growth, the functional outcome at 3 months [modified Rankin scale (mRS)], and other clinical data were collected. Statistical analysis was performed to compare the associations with the above variables and predict functional outcome after stroke.

[Imaging features of Waldeyer's ring in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and its clinical significance].

Background & Objective: Waldeyer's ring is the most vulnerable site outside lymph nodes in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Its imaging features in NHL of early stage were similar with those of squamous epithelial cancer, which often leads to misdiagnosis. This study was to discuss imaging features of Waldeyer's ring in NHL, and its clinical significance.
