Problems with the use of placebo conditions in psychotherapy research, suggested alternatives, and some strategies for the pursuit of the placebo phenomenon

✍ T. D. Borkovec; Nicholas J. Sibrava 📂 Article 📅 2005 🏛 John Wiley and Sons 🌐 English ⚖ 97 KB 👁 1 views

Due to the numerous conceptual, methodological, and ethical problems that are associated with placebo conditions in psychotherapy research, their use should be abandoned, and more powerful therapy outcome designs (dismantling, additive, parametric, and catalytic) that can contribute to basic knowled

Rapid and efficient mapping of regional ventilation in the rat lung using hyperpolarized 3He with Flip angle variation for offset of RF and relaxation (FAVOR)

✍ Giles E. Santyr; Wilfred W. Lam; Alexei Ouriadov 📂 Article 📅 2008 🏛 John Wiley and Sons 🌐 English ⚖ 258 KB

## Abstract A novel imaging method is presented, Flip Angle Variation for Offset of RF and Relaxation (FAVOR), for rapid and efficient measurement of rat lung ventilation using hyperpolarized helium‐3 (^3^He) gas. The FAVOR technique utilizes variable flip angles to remove the cumulative effect of

Measurement of Spin–Lattice Relaxation Times and Concentrations in Systems with Chemical Exchange Using the One-Pulse Sequence: Breakdown of the Ernst Model for Partial Saturation in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

✍ Richard G.S Spencer; Kenneth W Fishbein 📂 Article 📅 2000 🏛 Elsevier Science 🌐 English ⚖ 187 KB

A fundamental problem in Fourier transform NMR spectroscopy is the calculation of observed resonance amplitudes for a repetitively pulsed sample, as first analyzed by Ernst and Anderson in 1966. Applications include determination of spin-lattice relaxation times (T 1 's) by progressive saturation an
