Feasibility of free-breathing quantitative myocardial perfusion using multi-echo Dixon magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract Dynamic contrast-enhanced quantitative first-pass perfusion using magnetic resonance imaging enables non-invasive objective assessment of myocardial ischemia without ionizing radiation.However, quantification of perfusion is challenging due to the non-linearity between the magnetic resonance signal intensity and contrast agent concentratio

Production of Micro- and Nanofibrillated Cellulose through an Aqueous Counter Collision System Followed by Ultrasound: Effect of Mechanical Pretreatments

The purpose of this work was the production of cellulose micro-nanofibrils from wood pulps through a combination of mechanical Fill Hose treatments, including a recently patented process, a so-called aqueous counter collision (ACC) method followed by ultrasound treatment.Previously to ACC process, the raw pulp materials had to be downscaled to micr
