Using simulation to estimate probability density functions of bound water molecules with DSI
… cells imaged by tissue imaging of the tongue by DSI. Our group performed a DSI experiment on a mouse tongue with a 4.7 Tesla MRI spin echo experiment in order to reconstruct a set of PDFs for the diameter, which closely correlated with the actual values for cell diameter obtained by 3D …

Genetic Counselors' Experiences With and Approaches to Discordant Genotypic and Phenotypic Sex Detected Via Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing
… via non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT-DSI). Thus, it is imperative to investigate what GCs consider important when counseling about NIPT-DSI and assess how GCs perceive their role in such cases. Prenatal and pediatric GCs were surveyed regarding previous experiences of NIPT-DSI, comfort …

Novel Phantoms and Post-Processing For Diffusion Spectrum Imaging
… including Diffusion Spectrum Imaging (DSI), have been proposed to resolve crossing and other complex fiber architecture in the human brain white matter. In these methods, directional information of diffusion is inferred from the peaks in the orientation distribution function (ODF). …

Exploring the Medico-legal death scene investigation of sudden unexpected death of infants admitted to Salt River mortuary, Cape Town, South Africa
A death scene investigation (DSI) forms an integral part of the inquiry into death, particularly for sudden unexpected death of infants (SUDI). Global guidelines exist for DSI, however, it is unclear how many countries adhere to them, and to what extent they are followed. Therefore, a systematic …

Dynamic Strength Index and Countermovement Jump Performance in Female and Male Collegiate Basketball Athletes Across a Competitive Season
… power and strength. The Dynamic Strength Index (DSI), calculated as the ratio of CMJ peak force to IMTP peak force, offers insight into the strength–power profile of athletes and may inform individualized training approaches. However, limited research exists on seasonal changes in DSI, CMJ …

Mapping crossing myofiber populations with Diffusion Spectrum Imaging in simulated and microfabricated model tissues
… the capacity of Diffusion Spectrum Imaging (DSI), an MRI method for assessing molecular diffusion in a confined geometry, to determine fiber alignment in tissues whose myofibers are aligned at varying orientations. By this method, molecular displacement in a tissue can be determined by …

Experimentelle Bestimmung der "Verrechnungs"-Zeiten beim Stereosehen anhand der verzögert wahrgenommenen Tiefenumkehr von bewegten, teilweise verdeckten Objekten
… Phänomen wird als Delayed Stereopsis Illusion (DSI) bezeichnet. Die „DSI-Lücke“ trägt das Muster der bewegten Fläche, ihre räumliche Tiefe wird aber irgendwo zwischen Objekt und Flächenebene wahrgenommen. Analog zu Bela Julesz´ topologischen „Niemandsländern“ an den beiden vertikalen Rändern des …

An Examination of the Impact of Studying Abroad with AFS on Level of Differentiation
… by the Differentiation of Self Inventory (DSI) (Knauth & Skowron, 2004), that occurred among high school students who participated in a semester-long (n = 69) and year-long (n = 119) AFS (formerly known as American Field Service) program and a control group (n = 75) that did not study …

Generalized Passive Radar Processing Chain For Use With Different Signals of Opportunity
… of primarily four stages; pre-processing, DSI-cancellation, range-Doppler map generation and finally detection and tracking. The pre-processing stage is signal dependant and therefore cannot be generalized. DSI-cancellation is the most resource intensive of the stages and along with …

Silicon and oxygen self-diffusion in forsterite and implications to upper-mantle rheology
… measured silicon diffusion coefficients (DSi) [Dohmen et al., 2002; Jaoul et al., 1981] were about 2-3 orders of magnitude lower than those estimated from dislocation creep rates by deformation experiments [Durham and Goetze, 1977a; Goetze and Kohlstedt, 1973]. In order to resolve this …

Three dimensional mapping of lingual myoarchitecture
… were tested, namely diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI), DSI with tractography, q-ball imaging, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and ADC and FA mapping. Each imaging method was evaluated in three ways: 1) finite element simulation using 2D structures to model the diffusion environment in an idealized …

The Impact of Demographic Variables on Differentiation of Self During the Course of Counseling
… and Differentiation of Self Inventory-Revised (DSI-R) were administered with a follow-up administration of the DSI-R was conducted three months later. The results indicated a significant increase in overall differentiation of self, as well as in DSI-R subscale scores of Emotional Reactivity and …

Multi-scale analysis of cardiac myoarchitecture
… diffusion spectrum magnetic resonance imaging (DSI) and high-speed multislice two-photon microscopy (TPM) was used. DSI is a technique that derives fiber orientation from directionality of proton diffusion, whereas TPM derives cellular alignment from an autocorrelation of 3D resolved images of …

Goss’s wilt and leaf blight of corn: chemical control, residue management and resistance
… were used to calculate a disease severity index (DSI), where DSI – (% incidence) X (severity) / 9. The different tillage treatments had a significant effect on both DSI (P = 0.0004) and yield (P = 0.0005). The no-till treatment resulted in the highest amount of residue and a significantly higher …
