Histology of the resected scrotal mass shows spindle-shaped cells, and immunohistochemistry confirms an angiomyofibroblastoma ...

Cancer phototherapy indicates advantages in ease of manipulation, negligible drug resistance, and spatiotemporal control but is confronted with challenges in tumor cell accessibility and intermittent ...

This paper is concerned with the characterization of the true locally resolved surface normal velocity of an assumed piston-type ultrasonic transducer. Instead of involving a very complicated direct ...
