โฆ Synopsis
The brains of 44 normal adults were examined by computer tomography (CT) with the fine matrix EMI scanner. Measurements of various parts of the ventricular system showed a sexual difference and an increase with age. Absolute measurements are preferred to indices or ratios. Comparison with the same parameters in pneumoncephalography and ventricular casts showed good correlation. The need for larger investigations of the normal population is stressed.

The brains of 100 normal adults were examined with 160 X 160 matrix computed tomography (CT). The left lateral ventricle was found to be larger than the right in both sexes, and both lateral ventricles were larger in the male. There was a statistically significant increase of all cerebral parameters
The normal ventricular system and subarachnoid space were evaluated on the CT scans of 155 children chosen from 1,400 pediatric CT examinations, and linear measurements were made. The left septum-caudate distance was greater than the right, and the width of the left anterior horn and size of the sku
Tracer kinetic modeling with positron emission tomography (PET) requires measurements of the time-activity curves in both plasma (PTAC) and tissue ('ITAC) to estimate physiological parameters, i.e. to fit the parameters of certain compartmental models using PTAC and TTAC as the model input and outpu
The aim of this study was to test a prototype MRI-compatible focused ultrasound phased array system for trans-skull brain tissue ablation. Rabbit thigh muscle and brain were sonicated with a prototype, hemispherical 500-element ultrasound phased array operating at frequencies of 700-800 kHz. An ex v
