Several major diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular abnormalities, may be linked to
pathological deposition of minerals or organic compounds in various tissues. 1− 3 Thus, the …

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether spectral computed tomography (CT)
has the potential to improve luminal depiction by differentiating among intravascular …

Radiosensitization efficacy of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with low energy radiations (88
