Platelet activation studies on polymeric surfaces by Suzliana Sulaimi

“…Platelet activation effects varies with the nature of topography, in this case, pillars are studied. A series of immunofluorescence staining of platelets was performed to get the optimized parameters; which are 1 wash before stain as shown by the higher intensity and minimal presence of debris as compared to 2 and 0 wash at dilution factors of 1:1 and 4:1 for CD 62P and PAC-1 respectively as the intensity shift between the negative and positive control samples were more significant. …”

Development of algorithms for high performance digital image processing with applications to medical imaging by Zhang, Cishen

“…We have conducted research in two areas of medical imaging which are ultrasound imaging and computed tomography (CT) imaging. In ultrasound imaging, we introduce a new tissue model where the inclusion of more realistic physical analysis in the received pulse-echo pressure field shows that there are two different natures of noise sources existing in the received ultrasound RF echo. …”

Imaging sodium dendrite growth in all‐solid‐state sodium batteries using 23Na T2‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging by Rees, GJ, Spencer Jolly, D, Ning, Z, Marrow, T, Pavlovskaya, GE, Bruce, P

“…A spalling dendritic morphology is observed and confirmed by more conventional post‐mortem analysis; X‐ray tomography and scanning electron microscopy. A significantly larger 23Na T2 for the dendritic growth, compared with the bulk metal electrode, is attributed to increased sodium ion mobility in the dendrite. 23Na T2‐contrast MRI of metallic sodium offers a clear, routine method for observing and isolating microstructural growths and can supplement the current suite of techniques utilised to analyse dendritic growth in all‐solid‐state cells.…”
