The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

Atherosclerotic plaque rupture can lead to thrombotic cardiovascular events such as stroke and myocardial infarction. Computational models have shown that microcalcifications (calcified particles with ...

Abstract: Mammography is a widespread imaging technique for the early detection of breast cancer. Microcalcification clusters, visible in X-ray images, are important indicators for the diagnosis. In ...

Figure 1: Results of microcalcification detection experiments. (a) A benign example of calcification. The green boxes represent benign lesions. ‘GT’ refers to the gold standard label given by the ...

An interdisciplinary collaboration 10 years in the making used a materials science approach to 'fingerprint' the calcium mineral deposits known as microcalcifications that reveal pathological clues to ...

ITHACA, N.Y. -- An interdisciplinary collaboration 10 years in the making used a materials science approach to “fingerprint” the calcium mineral deposits known as microcalcifications that reveal ...

Patients with thoracic aortopathy are at increased risk of catastrophic aortic dissection, carrying with it substantial mortality and morbidity. Although granular medial calcinosis (medial ...

Medial microcalcification is a marker of aortopathy, although progression to severe aortopathy is associated with loss of both elastin fibers and microcalcification. 18 F-sodium fluoride positron ...

Radiologist reading a CAT scan PET-FDG and PET-NaF show different aspects of inflammation in carotid artery atherosclerosis. Researchers conducted a systematic review of articles about PET imaging of ...
