Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging Confirmation Of An Anterior Protein Pathway In Normal Rabbit Eyes, Nancy H. Kolodny, Thomas F. Freddo, Barbara A. Lawrence, Cristina Suarez, Stephen P. Bartels

Chemistry: Faculty Publications

Purpose: Contrast-enhanced proton magnetic resonance imaging ( 1H MRI) has been used as a quantitative, noninvasive method to corroborate a pathway for the diffusion of plasma-derived protein into the aqueous humor in the normal rabbit eye. Methods. T1-weighted magnetic resonance images were produced over 1- to 3-hour periods after the intravenous injection of gadolinium diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid. Results. Analysis of the images yielded the time dependence of signal enhancements within the areas of interest. The ciliary body showed an immediate sharp increase, followed by a gradual decrease in signal enhancement with time. Although a gradual increase in signal enhancement was found …

Astronomy: Faculty Publications

We report the discovery of a group of galaxies at redshift 2.38. We imaged ∼ 10% of a claimed supercluster of QSO absorption lines at z = 2.38. In this small field (2′ radius), we detect two Lyα-emitting galaxies. The discovery of two such galaxies in our tiny field supports Francis & Hewett's interpretation of the absorption-line supercluster as a high-redshift Great Wall. One of the Lyα galaxies lies 22″ from a background QSO and may be associated with a multicomponent Lyα absorption complex seen in the QSO spectrum. This galaxy has an extended (∼50 kpc), lumpy Lyα morphology surrounding …
