The invention relates to an antenna array for transmitting and receiving RF radiation to and from a target at a predetermined depth in an object. The antenna array can be used in a magnetic resonance image system. The antenna array is provided with at least one dipole antenna (401) comprising two legs, and each leg comprises at least two segments (401, 420; 404, 405) and a coupling device (406, 407) arranged to electrically connect the respective segments.
摘要:
A method and device, e.g. a C-arm device, for radiographic and nuclear imaging of an object by means of x-ray and gamma emission imaging. The device comprises a support installation with opposed first and second support members, wherein an x-ray source is mounted on the first support member and an x-ray detector on the second support member. The first support member is additionally provided with at least two gamma cameras that are each located adjacent the x-ray source. Each of said at least two gamma cameras comprising a collimator with one or more collimator openings and a gamma radiation detector. Each of the at least two gamma cameras has an associated field of view. The fields of view of the gamma cameras overlap partly, said overlap defining a focus volume that is seen by the at least two gamma cameras. The focus volume is located between the x-ray source and the x-ray detector so that the x-ray beam passes through the focus volume and the focus volume F is seen by the x-ray detector. The x-ray source, x-ray detector, and gamma cameras are maintained in a stationary acquisition position during x-ray and gamma image data acquisition of x-ray and gamma radiation images respectively, which images are fused into a fused image.

摘要:
The invention provides a particle comprising an organic lanthanide metal complex wherein the lanthanide metal is present in an amount of more than 20 wt%, based on total particle. The invention further provides a suspension comprising such a particle. In addition, the invention relates to a method for preparing said particle, and the use of the particle(s) or suspension for treating a malignancy and/or obtaining a scanning image.
摘要:
The present invention is concerned with treatment, prevention, or prevention of progression of myocardial infarction or adverse cardiac remodeling related conditions such as heart failure, aneurysm formation and remote myocardial fibrosis by administering a binding member such as, for example, a neutralizing antibody, binding to fibronectin-EDA, in particular the EDA domain of fibronectin-EDA to a subject in need thereof.
摘要:
Holding device for holding a manually operated medical device in place, comprising: a connector arranged to connect the holding device to a positioning apparatus; a clamp member arranged to clamp the medical device, wherein the clamp member is moveable between a locking position wherein the medical device is clamped and a moving position wherein the medical device is moveable with respect to the holding device; a joint assembly arranged to allow movement between the clamp member and the connector, wherein the joint assembly is moveable between a moving position wherein the clamp member is moveable with respect to the connector and a locking position wherein movement between the clamp member and the connector is prevented, and; an actuator for moving both the joint assembly and the clamp member between the moving positions and the locking positions.
摘要:
The present invention provides means and method for detecting an activation epitope on FcyRII (CD32) on Fcγ (CD32) expressing cells. The presence of epitope on FcγRII (CD32) correlates with priming of the cell containing FcγRII (CD32) expressing said epitope. The invention further provides binding molecules specific for said activation epitope on FcγRII (CD32), and uses thereof in the detection of activated cells. Further uses are the treatment of individuals suffering from inflammation or at risk of suffering thereof. Also provided, among others, are uses for detecting and/or following an inflammation in an individual.
