Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In PD, tissue damage occurs in specific cortical and subcortical regions. Conventional MR images have only limited capacity to depict these structural changes. The purpose of the current study was to investigate whether voxel-based MT imaging could indicate structural abnormalities beyond atrophy measurable with T1-weighted MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six patients with PD without dementia (9 in H&Y stage 1, thirteen in H&Y 2, eleven in H&Y 3, three in H&Y 4) and 23 age-matched control subjects were studied with T1-weighted MR imaging and MT imaging. Voxel-based analyses of T1-weighted MR imaging was performed to investigate brain atrophy, while MT imaging was used to study abnormalities within existing tissue. Modulated GM and WM probability maps, sensitive to volume, and nonmodulated maps, indicative of tissue density, were obtained from T1-weighted MR imaging. Effects seen on MTR images, but absent on density maps, were attributed to damage of existing tissue. RESULTS Contrary to T1-weighted MR imaging, MT imaging was sensitive to the progression of brain pathology of the neocortex and paraventricular WM. MTR images and T1-based volume images, but not density images, showed a progression of disease in the olfactory cortex, indicating the occurrence of atrophy as well as damage to existing tissue in this region. MTR images revealed bilateral damage to the SN, while T1-weighted MR imaging only showed left-sided abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that voxel-based MT imaging permits a whole-brain unbiased investigation of CNS structural integrity in PD and may be a valuable tool for identifying structural damage occurring without or before measurable atrophy.

Abstract
We investigated Se structures of different degrees of disorder ranging from a 5% up to a 95% degree of amorphization. Starting from a trigonal crystalline structure we applied different strategies to introduce disorder into the Se configurations by irradiating atoms from their crystalline equilibrium positions. According to the symmetry of the trigonal phase, we introduced three types of disorder, i.e. the first type where only atoms forming layers of complete helical chains are shifted from their original positions (the thickness of these layers is chosen to represent the chosen degree of amorphicity), the second type where only atoms in planes-of respective thicknesses-lying perpendicular to the chains are displaced and the third type where only randomly chosen atoms are shifted from their crystalline equilibrium positions. After a thermal treatment of these disordered starting configurations, we calculated structural and dynamic properties (i.e. pair-correlation function and vibrational spectrum) and compared the results to both the original crystalline data and results obtained from corresponding glass structures.

Abstract
Biomarkers providing in vivo quantification of the basic elements of cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease are needed. A study was performed to determine whether the absorption of a small radiolabelled hydrophilic molecule (Indium-111 (In-)DTPA) would be increased in CF airways. DTPA clearance has been used previously to assess epithelial permeability and may also be useful for quantifying liquid absorption. The absorptive clearance rate of DTPA was quantified in 10 CF and 11 control subjects using a novel aerosol technique. Subjects inhaled an aerosol containing nonabsorbable technetium-99m sulfur colloid (Tc-SC) particles and In-DTPA. Tc-SC clearance from the lung is exclusively mucociliary, while In-DTPA is cleared by both absorption and mucociliary clearance. The difference between the In-DTPA and Tc-SC clearance rates estimates In-DTPA absorption. Tc-SC (mucociliary) clearance was similar in central and peripheral zones in CF and non-CF lungs. Total In-DTPA clearance was increased in both zones in CF lungs. The absorptive component of In-DTPA clearance was increased in the airway-dominated central lung zones in CF (42% x h( -1) versus 32% x h(-1), p = 0.03). The absorption of In-DTPA is increased in the CF airway. Further study is needed to understand the relative roles of fluid absorption, inflammation and other mechanisms potentially affecting epithelial permeability and DTPA absorption.

Abstract
Two novel biomarkers (whole-body thyroid hormone and triglyceride concentrations) were developed for use in wood frog tadpoles. The development of these biomarkers was based on previous work done in fish and lizards and incorporated triglyceride and thyroid hormone extraction into 1 homogenization step with 95% ethanol as the solvent. This method is useful for reducing sample-to-sample variability because the same sample can be used for each extraction and assay.

Abstract
To evaluate the dose values predicted by several calculation algorithms in two treatment planning systems, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and measurements by means of various detectors were performed in heterogeneous layer phantoms with water- and bone-equivalent materials. Percentage depth doses (PDDs) were measured with thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs), metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs), plane parallel and cylindrical ionization chambers, and beam profiles with films. The MC code used for the simulations was the PENELOPE code. Three different field sizes (10 x 10, 5 x 5, and 2 x 2 cm2) were studied in two phantom configurations and a bone equivalent material. These two phantom configurations contained heterogeneities of 5 and 2 cm of bone, respectively. We analyzed the performance of four correction-based algorithms and one based on convolution superposition. The correction-based algorithms were the Batho, the Modified Batho, the Equivalent TAR implemented in the Cadplan (Varian) treatment planning system (TPS), and the Helax-TMS Pencil Beam from the Helax-TMS (Nucletron) TPS. The convolution-superposition algorithm was the Collapsed Cone implemented in the Helax-TMS. All the correction-based calculation algorithms underestimated the dose inside the bone-equivalent material for 18 MV compared to MC simulations. The maximum underestimation, in terms of root-mean-square (RMS), was about 15% for the Helax-TMS Pencil Beam (Helax-TMS PB) for a 2 x 2 cm2 field inside the bone-equivalent material. In contrast, the Collapsed Cone algorithm yielded values around 3%. A more complex behavior was found for 6 MV where the Collapsed Cone performed less well, overestimating the dose inside the heterogeneity in 3%-5%. The rebuildup in the interface bone-water and the penumbra shrinking in high-density media were not predicted by any of the calculation algorithms except the Collapsed Cone, and only the MC simulations matched the experimental values within the estimated uncertainties. The TLD and MOSFET detectors were suitable for dose measurement inside bone-equivalent materials, while parallel ionization chambers, applying the same calibration and correction factors as in water, systematically underestimated dose by 3%-5%.

Abstract
Lung transplant recipients exhibit a high incidence of invasive aspergillosis. The inhalation of lipid complex amphotericin-B (Abelcet; ABLC) offers a possible prophylactic strategy. The goals of this study were to select the optimal nebulizer delivery system for ABLC and to measure deposited aerosol dose in 12 lung transplant recipients. In vitro testing was performed to select a nebulizer delivery system, and an empirical model was used to estimate lung deposition. Estimated pulmonary doses varied by as much as 2-fold between different nebulizers. Aerosol deposition testing was performed in six single and six double lung recipients, each of whom received one 7 mL (35 mg) nebulized dose of Technetium-labeled ABLC using the selected nebulizer. In single lung recipients, the average deposited doses were 3.9 +/- 1.6 mg (mean +/- S.D.) in the allograft versus 2.1 +/- 1.1 mg in the native lung. Double lung recipients deposited on average 2.8 +/- 0.8 mg (left lung) and 4.0 +/- 1.3 mg (right lung). The drug was well distributed throughout the lungs, but delivery to the native lung was in some cases suboptimal. These studies provide an important precursor to studies of the efficacy of inhaled ABLC as a prophylaxis of invasive aspergillosis after lung transplant.

Abstract
Primary aorto-oesophageal fistula, secondary to an aneurysm of the thoracic aorta, are almost fatal. In the literature, only twenty six successfully operated cases have been reported. We report the case of a 78-year-old man with a thoracic aortic aneurysm eroded into the mid oesophagus. Prompt diagnosis of an aorto-oesophageal fistula resulted from clinical history, CT-imaging and oesophagoscopy. The patient was successfully operated by exclusion of the thoracic aneurysm (insertion of a straight cryopreserved arterial allograft), oesophagectomy and cervical oesophagostomy and jejunostomy. The continuity of the digestive tube was later restored after preliminary aortic valve remplacement (stenosis of 0.8 cm2). This case report is the second in which a cryopreserved allograft was successfully implanted in the management of a primary aorto-oesophageal fistula.

Abstract
Lichen amyloidosis (LA) is a chronic, pruritic skin disorder characterized by brownish-grey papules on extensor surfaces of legs and rarely on the trunk. Thioflavin T-positive amyloid deposits are found in the papillary dermis of affected skin, which is the only organ involved. A variety of therapeutic regimens for lichen amyloidosis have been described; however, in many cases with only limited effect. We report on two patients with lichen amyloidosis with typical clinical symptoms not responding to local treatment. A combined regimen with bath psoralen ultraviolet A (PUVA) and oral acitretin was initiated, resulting in nearly complete resolution of the papules and impressive relief from the severe pruritus. The beneficial response has persisted for 8 months. The suggested combined therapy with bath PUVA photochemotherapy and oral acitretin represents an efficacious and practical treatment modality for lichen amyloidosis with long-lasting effects.

Abstract
An 80-year-old man presented with a distinctive reticular form of elastolytic giant cell granuloma (EGCG). This represents a rare subset of EGCG, thus belonging to a larger group of granulomatous skin diseases with poorly understood pathogenesis. The patient exhibited numerous erythematous to brownish, sharply demarcated patches of reticulate appearance with partial central atrophy and nonelevated margins, which involved the trunk and especially chest, shoulders, upper back and arms. Skin biopsy revealed a granulomatous infiltrate with multinucleate histiocytes containing remnants of elastic fibres in conjunction with a significant loss of elastic fibres throughout the dermis. There is little published information on treatment, which remains unsatisfactory.

Abstract
Lake trout fry (Salvelinus namaycush) were exposed in laboratory experiments to two wastewater treatment polymers, one anionic (MagnaFloc 156) and one cationic (MagnaFloc 368; Ciba Speciality Chemical), to determine if these chemicals which are used and discharged by mining operations in Canada's North pose a significant hazard to juvenile fishes. The cationic polymer was substantially more toxic to lake trout fry than the anionic polymer, with 96-h LC50 estimates of 2.08 and >600 mg/l, respectively. Separate 30-d exposure experiments yielded no observed and lowest observed effect concentrations, respectively, of 0.25 and 0.5mg/l for MagnaFloc 368, and 75 and 150 mg/l for MagnaFloc 156. In both cases, behavioural responses, especially startle response, were the most sensitive test endpoints. Histopathological assessment revealed that gill pathology appeared within a few days of exposure to both polymers, apparently as a result of localized hypoxia. Acute (4 d) effects included cloudy swelling of epithelial cells, increased gill vascularization, and thickening and shortening of the gill lamella. Chronic (30 d) polymer exposure produced only slightly greater pathological effects than acute exposure, with comparable responses observed only at >1.0mg/l MagnaFloc 368 and 150 mg/l MagnaFloc 156, suggesting that the fish displayed some level of both behavioural and physiological adaptation to the respiratory stress imposed by the two polymers.
