The effect of porosity on fragmentation statistics of dynamically loaded ZrO2 ceramics by Marina Davydova, Sergei Uvarov, Oleg Naimark

“…Experimental data processing showed that the shape of stress-strain curves, the fragment size distribution and distribution of time intervals between the fractoluminiscense impulses depend on the sample porosity and load intensity. The X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) study of porous material structures allowed us to link the fragmentation statistics with pronounced porosity clustering (about 97% of the total pore volume) formed due to sintering.…”

Carcinoma of the Colon in an Adult with Intestinal Malrotation by Michael Donaire, James Mariadason, Daniel Stephens, Sitaram Pillarisetty, Marc K. Wallack

“…While patients may present with intestinal obstruction or abdominal pain, the diagnosis is now often made as an incidental finding by computed tomography (CT). Surprisingly we found only seven case reports of carcinoma of the colon in patients with malrotation; CT failed to make the preoperative diagnosis in a majority. …”

Unconventional Nuclides for Radiopharmaceuticals by Jason P. Holland, Matthew J. Williamson, Jason S. Lewis

“…Until recently, the majority of clinical and basic science research has focused on the development of 11 C-, 13 N-, 15 O-, and 18 F-radiopharmaceuticals for use with positron emission tomography (PET) and 99m Tc-labeled agents for use with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). With the increased availability of small, low-energy cyclotrons and improvements in both cyclotron targetry and purification chemistries, the use of “nonstandard” radionuclides is becoming more prevalent. …”
