Published: December 2013

We report on three-dimensional (3D) imaging of individual Gd dopant atoms in a thin (∼2.3  nm) foil of SrTiO3, using quantitative scanning transmission electron microscopy. Uncertainties in the depth positions of individual dopants are less than 1 unit cell. The overall dopant concentration measured from atom column intensities agrees quantitatively with electrical measurements. The method is applied to analyze the 3D arrangement of dopants within small clusters containing 4-5 Gd atoms.

Classifying the molecular subtype of breast cancer using vision transformer and convolutional neural network features.

Breast Cancer Res Treat

January 2025

Department of Radiological Technology, Faculty of Medical Technology, Niigata University of Health and Welfare, 1398 Shimamichou, Kita-Ku, Niigata, Japan.

Purpose: Identification of the molecular subtypes in breast cancer allows to optimize treatment strategies, but usually requires invasive needle biopsy. Recently, non-invasive imaging has emerged as promising means to classify them. Magnetic resonance imaging is often used for this purpose because it is three-dimensional and highly informative.

Blood Flow Velocity Analysis in Cerebral Perforating Arteries on 7T 2D Phase Contrast MRI with an Open-Source Software Tool (SELMA).

Neuroinformatics

January 2025

Translational Neuroimaging Group, Center for Image Sciences, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands.

Blood flow velocity in the cerebral perforating arteries can be quantified in a two-dimensional plane with phase contrast magnetic imaging (2D PC-MRI). The velocity pulsatility index (PI) can inform on the stiffness of these perforating arteries, which is related to several cerebrovascular diseases. Currently, there is no open-source analysis tool for 2D PC-MRI data from these small vessels, impeding the usage of these measurements.
