Cocaine use is associated with high-risk sexual practices that accelerate the spread of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Substantial literature has demonstrated that active substance use leads to impairment on assessments of executive function. Inhibitory control--t…
During each heart beat, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flows back and forth between the cranium and spinal canal. This pulsatile flow is driven by the pulsatile blood flow to the cranial vault and is modulated by the biomechanical properties of the craniospinal system (e.g., intr…
For all radiologists treating infants and children, knowledge of best practices in pediatric imaging is essential to successful, high-quality results. This practical text covers current guidelines and key topics in the field, including choice of modality, equipment and dosages, …
Bogen forsøger så enkelt som muligt at introducere til coronar MRA samt skabe en sammenhæng mellem radiologi og kardiologi. Der gives et overblik over de mest etablerede og anvendte coronar MRA teknikker, og man ledes step by step gennem proceduren for anvendelse af avanceret co…
Iron platinum (FePt) has attracted growing interest because of its high Curie temperature, magneto-crystalline anisotropy and chemical stability. Nanoparticles (NPs) made of this alloy are promising candidates for a wide range of biomedical applications including magnetic separa…
Introduction and aim: Increases in the bioavailability of nitric oxide have been shown to reduce the oxygen (O2) cost of exercise, improve exercise performance, alter gastric blood flow and mediate glucose uptake in healthy individuals. Aim: Does dietary nitrate reduce the O2 co…
The move towards higher static magnetic field strengths in MRI has allowed improved imaging quality from increased signal to noise ratio. However challenges have arisen from increased inhomogeneity in the radio frequency (RF) fields required to create MR signals and greater RF e…
This thesis consisted of experiments designed to explore the construct of attention and investigate the disruptive effects of psychotomimetics, with a specific focus on NMDA antagonists. Phencyclidine (PCP) was administered through a variety of treatment regimens in order to to …
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a serious complication of human pregnancy where the fetus fails to reach its genetically pre-determined growth potential. It is a common condition, affecting 5 -15% of all pregnancies (Gardosi 2009) and is linked to a third of all antepartum dea…
