DOI: 10.1002/mp.13940

Abstract: PURPOSE Radiation dose to cardiac substructures is related to radiation-induced heart disease. However, substructures are not considered in radiation therapy planning (RTP) due to poor visualization on CT. Therefore, we developed a novel deep learning… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Internal Medicine"

DOI: 10.2169/internalmedicine.1055-18

Abstract: Patients on hemodialysis often have carnitine deficiency. We herein report a woman who experienced the dramatic improvement of cardiac dysfunction after intravenous L-carnitine administration. We also investigated the myocardial fatty acid metabolism using 123I-labeled β-methyl-p-iodophenyl-pentadecanoic… read more here.
