DefinitionRenal angiography, also known as renal arteriography, is an imaging technique used to obtain a comprehensive view of blood flow and the vascular structure of blood vessels in the kidneys and surrounding areas.PurposeRenal angiography detects blood vessel abnormalities in the kidneys, such as aneurysms, stenosis, thrombosis, vascular tumors, and renal artery stenosis. It evaluates kidney function and guides interventional treatments like angioplasty or stent placement.Pre-Procedure...

Introduction:Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI, can include a specialized imaging technique of the urinary system known as Magnetic Resonance Urography (MRU). This radiation-free technique uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images with the help of a computer. MRU is particularly effective for visualizing fluid-filled structures like the kidneys, ureters, and bladder.Applications of MRI in the Genitourinary SystemKidneys and Ureters: MRI detects tumors, cysts,...

X-ray Imaging

German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen (1845–1923) was experimenting with electrical current when he discovered that a mysterious and invisible "ray" would pass through his flesh but leave an outline of his bones on a screen coated with a metal compound. In 1895, Röntgen made the first durable record of the internal parts of a living human: an "X-ray" image (as it came to be called) of his wife’s hand. Scientists worldwide quickly began their own experiments with...

Quality of Water01:19

Quality of Water

506
In concrete preparation, the quality of water is paramount as it affects the strength and durability of the concrete. Potable water is usually preferred; however, it must not have excessive sodium or potassium to prevent compromising the concrete's integrity. Water quality is typically evaluated based on impurities such as dissolved solids, chlorides, and sulfates, and its pH value is ideally between 6 and 8. Even slightly acidic natural water may be acceptable unless it contains harmful...

Quality Control01:05

Quality Control

1.2K
Quality control is one of the three cyclical quality assurance activities that help keep a system under statistical control. Typical quality control activities include creating quality control charts, conducting proficiency testing, and documenting and archiving results.
Quality control helps track data, visualize trends, and identify variations, making it easier to detect deviations that may affect the accuracy of an analysis. One way to do this is by generating a quality control chart, which...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electron Microscopy
  • Computational Imaging

Background:

  • Computational techniques like super-resolution (SR) improve image quality by reducing noise and distortions.
  • High-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) is a powerful imaging technique.
  • Analyzing complex structures like surfaces and interfaces in HAADF-STEM images presents challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantitatively and qualitatively assess image enhancement using SR techniques in HAADF-STEM.
  • To apply SR methodology for improved analysis of challenging regions, such as surfaces and interfaces.
  • To reconstruct the atomic structure of magnetite thin film surfaces.

Main Methods:

  • Acquisition of a series of cross-sectional experimental images of magnetite (Fe3O4) thin films.
  • Application of image processing techniques, including simple averaging and super-resolution (SR).
  • Qualitative visual inspection in real and reciprocal space, and quantitative measurements (e.g., signal-to-noise ratio, atom column roundness).

Main Results:

  • SR techniques significantly improve image quality compared to simple averaging.
  • Enhanced images facilitate more reliable analysis of surfaces and interfaces.
  • Reconstruction of the atomic structure of the magnetite (111) surface revealed a full Fe monolayer with specific atomic coordination.

Conclusions:

  • Super-resolution is an effective computational strategy for enhancing HAADF-STEM images.
  • SR enables detailed atomic-level analysis of surfaces and interfaces in materials.
  • The study successfully reconstructed the surface atomic structure of magnetite thin films.
