DETECTING SYNCHRONOUS PARATHYROID ADENOMA AND FALSE-POSITIVE FINDINGS ON TECHNETIUM-99M MIBI SINGLE PHOTON-EMISSION COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY/COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY

Technetium (Tc)-99m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) single photon-emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) is now being used increasingly for preoperative localization of parathyroid adenomas.Tc-99m-MIBI scintigraphy in a 52-year-old man with a diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism revealed two focal areas with retention of r

Mocean Energy has designed a 100-kW hinged-raft wave energy converter (WEC), the M100, which has a novel geometry that reduces the cost of energy by improving the ratios of COLOR GELS LACQUERS power per size and power per torque.The performance of the M100 is shown through the outputs of frequency-domain and time-domain numerical models, which are

Aiming at alleviate the detrimental effect of similar object interferences and target state changes in SiamRPN tracker, a Channel Positive and Negative Feedback Network (CPFN) is proposed, in which the Gaussian score map is generated by the feature channels selected by a Gaussian kernel, and the map is combined with the classification branches of P

Abstract Through a simulated Twitter-like platform designed to optimize user engagement and grounded in authentic behavioral data, this study evaluates methodologies for auditing social media recommender systems.Our analysis focuses on the impact of key parameters in sock-puppet audits, the number of friends and session length, on Bleaching Powder

The fundamental problem in rock working is the breakage of fragments out of the face of a solid rock wall rock.Mechanically, this can be done only by forcing a tool into the rock surface, after the manner of an indenter is commonly used in the testing of surface hardness.Since the process Bookcases breaks rather than cuts the solid rock into small
