Purpose: The primary objective of this study is to perform a blinded evaluation of a group of
retrospective image registration techniques using as a gold standard a prospective, marker-…

This book covers the theory and applications of the Wigner phase space distribution function
and its symmetry properties. The book explains why the phase space picture of quantum …

Coupled harmonic oscillators occupy an important place in physics teaching. It is shown
that they can be used for illustrating an increase in entropy caused by limitations in …

A three-dimensional magnetic resonance (MR) renographic method to measure single
kidney glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and split renal function was developed that is based on …

An attempt is made to give a physical interpretation to the phenomenological wave function
of Yukawa, which gives a correct nucleon form factor in the symmetric quark model. This …

The purpose of this study is to report further about the statistically significant results from a
prospective study, which suggests that fusion of prone F‐18 Fluoro‐deoxy‐glucose (FDG) …

Software that has been developed to automate and standardize comparison of 3D images
is discussed. The major approaches to image registration are examined. The authors' …

All retrospective image registration methods have attached to them some intrinsic estimate of
registration error. However, this estimate of accuracy may not always be a good indicator of …

It is noted that the Jones-matrix formalism for polarization optics is a six-parameter two-by-two
representation of the Lorentz group. It is shown that the four independent Stokes …

Purpose. We quantify the additional radiation exposure in terms of effective dose incurred
by patients in the CT portion of SPECT/CT examinations. Methods. The effective dose from a …
