Nutrition plays a major role in cancer development and treatment. Malnutrition is a significant and common problem in cancer patients and has been recognized as an important component of adverse...
At the end of 2009, the number of registered disabled was 2,430,000 in South Korea. Of them, 90% originated from acquired causes such as diseases or accidents. Although disabilities are...
Plagiarism, the use of text and ideas from published works without proper permission or citation, is difficult to detect since the whole text should be searched and compared to literature...
As new physical activity recommendations and guidelines have spread globally since 1996, scrutiny of the evolution of national physical activity recommendations and guidelines for application to the Korean medical field...
Given the continuous advances in the hardware and software of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cardiac MRI has come to be a routine imaging modality in clinical settings for evaluating both...
Recently 3 tesla (T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been increasingly used in the clinical field. 3T MRI has many advantages, such as a better signal-to-noise ratio, increased chemical shift,...
Drug utilization review (DUR) system has been defined as "structured, ongoing initiatives that interpret patterns of drug use in relation to predetermined criteria, and attempt to prevent or minimize inappropriate...
Fluid and electrolyte therapies including nutritional support are markedly developing in medicine and many kinds of commercial fluids are being introduced to clinical practice. Understanding the characteristics and usefulness of...
Musculskeletal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications are making the transition rapidly from 1.5 tesla (T) to 3T. The higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) that is available with a 3T MRI system...
Alcohol-related problems are prevalent and lead to substantial economic, physical, and psychological burden. Among the various effects of alcohol, the effect on the brain is a matter of importance. The...
Thanks to the benefits of 3 tesla (T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), its clinical use is increasing in pediatric patients. However, technical considerations and clinical applications of 3T MRI have...
Due to the development of dedicated receiver coils for 3 tesla (T) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and increased gradient performance, 3T MR imaging of the abdomen is rapidly becoming a...
The primary merit of a 3 tesla (T) magnetic resonance (MR) scanner is the increase in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). It can offer high spatial and temporal image resolution and...
