Tomografia perfuzyjna pCT w diagnostyce cukrzycowej mikroangiopatii płucnej
PublikacjaNiniejsza rozprawa jest poświęcona zagadnieniom diagnostyki mikroangiopatii płucnej ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem perfuzyjnej tomografii komputerowej (pCT). Retinopatia, nefropatia i neuropatia są znanymi powikłaniami cukrzycy. Mało poznany jest wpływ cukrzycy na funkcjonowanie układu oddechowego. Obecnie stosowana metoda diagnostyki cukrzycowej mikroangiopatii płucnej ma ograniczoną wiarygodność. W rozprawie została przedstawiona...

Aproksymacja zmian stężenia znacznika w badaniach pCT płuc
PublikacjaW artykule zaproponowano nową metodę aproksymacji zmian stężenia znacznika w badaniach pCT płuc. Zmiany stężenia znacznika są skanowane z częstotliwością kilkakrotnie większą niż częstotliwość oddechu. Metoda opiera się na spostrzeżeniu, że częstotliwość występowania pików na krzywych zmian stężenia znacznika jest równa częstotliwości oddechu badanego. Zaprezentowano przykładowe dopasowanie funkcji regresji w postaci krzywej Gaussa...

Rating mathematical models for first-pass of tracer in pCT lung studies
PublikacjaThis paper presents a comparison of model based on the Gauss function and the most commonly used Gamma-variate model in perfusion computed tomography (pCT) lung studies. It also verifies whether used model affects value of blood volume parameter. Three mean concentration-time curves were created from actual pCT measurements: arterial input function, blood vessels in lungs and lung parenchyma. On the basis of these mean curves we...

Proposal of New Tracer Concentration Model in Lung PCT Study Comparison with Commonly Used Gamma-variate Model
PublikacjaPerfusion computed tomography (pCT) is one of the methods that enable non-invasive imaging of the hemodynamics of organs and tissues. On the basis of pCT measurements, perfusion parameters such as blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), mean transit time (MTT) and permeability surface (PS) are calculated and then used for quantitative evaluation of the tissue condition. To calculate perfusion parameters it is necessary to approximate...

High-temperature Corrosion of ~ 30 Pct Porous FeCr Stainless Steels in Air: Long-Term Evaluation Up to Breakaway
PublikacjaIn this work, a long-term (up to 6000 hours) corrosion evaluation of three porous (~ 30 pct of initial porosity) ferritic iron-chromium alloys with different Cr contents (20, 22, and 27 wt pct of Cr) was carried out at 600 C, 700 C, 800 C, and 900 C in air. Mass gain measurements and SEM analyses revealed that at temperatures above 600 C, all alloys exhibit breakaway corrosion, whereas at 600 C, none of the alloys were heavily...

Novel method of lung area extraction in chest perfusion computed tomography
PublikacjaChest perfusion computed tomography (pCT) is a useful technique in the medical diagnosis of how organs function. Perfusion CT scans are used to calculate perfusion parameters. In the case of automated methods of lung perfusion parameters calculation, the prior extraction of the lung area is desired to avoid unnecessary calculation in an area outside the lung cross-section and to avoid wasting time on processing signals of no diagnostic...

Lung perfusion parameters in the diagnosis of diabetic pulmonary microangiopathy
PublikacjaThis paper presents the role of perfusion computed tomography (pCT) in the diagnosis of diabetic pulmonary microangiopathy. Our previous works have shown that perfusion parameters are useful in the diagnosis of diabetic pulmonary microangiopathy. In this article we focus on conditions that are necessary for such the diagnosis and introduce method of classification no microangiopathy vs. microangiopathy based on logistic regression....

Role of quantitative chest perfusion computed tomography in detecting diabetic pulmonary microangiopathy
PublikacjaAims: Aimof the study was to determine the role of perfusion chest computed tomography(pCT) in evaluation of pulmonary diabetic angiopathy.Methods: 18 never-smoking patients (10 diabetic patients and 8 healthy controls) underwentchest high resolution CT (HRCT) and then pCT scanning. In both groups, blood tests,biochemical analysis, fibrinogen, HbA1c, spirometry, diffusion capacity for carbonmonoxide(DLCO) and body pletysmography...

Usefulness of chest perfusion computed tomography in the diagnosis of diabetic pulmonary microangiopathy
PublikacjaThis paper presents the usefulness of perfusion computed tomography (pCT) in the diagnosis of diabetic pulmonary microangiopathy. Our previous works have shown that perfusion parameters are useful in the diagnosis of diabetic pulmonary microangiopathy. We are looking for such measurements and perfusion parameters that provide the most accurate diagnosis. Two types of comparison were made based on the results of clinical trials:...

Novel methods for diagnosis of pulmonary microangiopathy in diabetes mellitus
PublikacjaLung microangiopathy is a little known negative influence of diabetes mellitus on the functioning of the lungs. In current medical practice lung microangiopathy is diagnosed by comparing two measurements of lung diffusing capacity - one with the subject standing and one with the subject lying. The necessity to take two measurements is inconvenient. In lung microangiopathy we observe a reduction of diffusing capacity, lung flow...

Powder metallurgy of the porous Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy of different powder grain size
PublikacjaThe objective of the present project was to determine the effects of powder granulation (fraction of grain size) for the Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy, produced by powder metallurgy, on its porosity, grain cohesion, compressive strength, and Young`s modulus. Two powder fractions, 45–105 µm, and 106–250 µm were applied. The 50 mass pct of NH4HCO3 was added as a space holder. The specimens were in compaction stage uniaxially pressed at pressure...

Analysis of Residual Stresses and Dislocation Density of AA6082 Butt Welds Produced by Friction Sir Welding
PublikacjaThe Friction Stir Welding (FSW) method was employed to join AA6082 sheets. The welds were produced with different tool traverse speed (200 and 250 mm/min), rotational speed (1000 and 1250 RPM) and tool tilt angle (0 and 2 deg). Based on the analysis of XRD patterns, the total precipitation volume fractions in the nugget zones and the base material were calculated. The FSW process resulted in a reduction in the fraction of precipitates...
