LGE-MRI and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) images were used to detect and quantify fibrosis of the left atrium using a threshold and 2-D skeleton based approach. Quantification and 3-D ...

Already existing skeletonization methods often fail in producing a faithful skeleton mostly due to noise hampering the binary representation of the data. This paper proposes a different approach by ...

The myofiber presents the fundamental structural unit of the skeletal muscle, and research on its structure and biological function is of great significance. Here, we review the latest progress in the ...

Purpose To study effects of Rehmannia glutinosa polysaccharides (RGP) on bone tissue structure and skeletal muscle atrophy in rats with disuse. Methods A rat model of disuse osteoporosis combined with ...

The sea urchin skeleton is formed in the mesoderm and lies embedded within soft tissue throughout life. It is composed of high magnesium calcite, a calcite (CaCO 3) that incorporates up to 15% MgCO 3.

We begin with background summaries of biomolecular methods in species identifications as well as elasmobranch skeletal structure to contextualize the ZooMS approach, followed by an overview of the ...
