The use of soil electrical resistivity to monitor plant and soil water relationships in vineyards
2015
Abstract. Soil water availability deeply affects plant physiology. In viticulture it is considered as a major contributor to the "terroir" expression. The assessment of soil water in field conditions is a difficult task especially over large surfaces. New techniques, are therefore required to better explore variations of soil water content in space and time with low disturbance and with great precision. Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) meets these requirements, for applications in plant sciences, agriculture and ecology. In this paper, possible techniques to develop models that allow the use of ERT to spatialise soil water available to plants are reviewed. An application of soil wate…
Un nouveau regard sur les épées à poignée métallique de l’âge du Bronze à la lumière des rayons X
2023
Les épées de l’âge du Bronze, a fortiori celles à poignée métallique, figurent parmi les objets les mieux documentés de la période, avec un grand nombre d’études réalisées à l’échelle européenne depuis la fin du XIXe siècle. Malgré tout, l’emploi de techniques d’imagerie utilisant les rayons X, telles que la radiographie et la tomographie, permettent de porter un regard nouveau sur ces armes grâce à l’examen de leurs entrailles qui révèlent certaines techniques mises en place par les artisans pour leur production. Ces épées sont en effet des objets complexes formés de plusieurs pièces agencées à l’aide de techniques variées, pour lesquelles les artisans de l’âge du Bronze se sont montrés tr…
Welche Eigenschaften machen ein Neuroleptikum "atypisch"?
2001
Die Gruppe der “atypischen” Neuroleptika ist keine einheitliche Substanzklasse, sondern sowohl nach pharmakologischen als auch nach klinischen Kriterien sehr heterogen. Die Ubergange von dem prototypischen “atypischen” Neuroleptikum Clozapin zu den “konventionellen” Neuroleptika erscheinen fliesend. Anhand der praklinischen Besonderheiten dieser Substanzen und ihrer Charakteristika in SPECT- und PET-Studien werden die wesentlichen Konzepte diskutiert, die man heute fur die “Atypie” eines Neuroleptikums verantwortlich macht. Dazu zahlen insbesondere der kombinierte Antagonismus von D2-artigen Dopamin- und 5-HT2-Serotoninrezeptoren und die praferentielle Beeinflussung mesolimbischer dopaminer…
Is spectral domain optical coherence tomography useful in improving the contour line with the heidelberg retina tomograph?
2012
Purpose: To compare the measurements of the optic disc in glaucoma patients and glaucoma suspects with spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (HRT) before and after adjustment of the contour line with the help of the OCT.Methods: In 109 consecutive patients (109 eyes), optic disc parameters were compared prospectively between the 2 devices before and after adjustment of the optic disc area (ODA) on the HRT3 with ODA obtained with the Cirrus SD-OCT as a reference. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and the 95% limits of agreement (LoA) with Bland-Altman plots were used to compare the agreement of the pre and post-adjustment mea…
Contributions to the physical and experimental validation of a simultaneous PET/MRI system dedicated to small animal imaging
2020
Simultaneous PET/MRI is a dynamic research field of both medical and preclinical domains. The ability of integrated systems to acquire the highly complementarity MR morphological and PET functional data in a single examination paves the way to innovative applications. The hereby document presents a series of experimentations dealing with the performance evaluation and the experimental in vivo capacities of such a device. Physical measurements were implemented based on international standards or inspired by articles of reference. The evaluated system consists of a compact SiPM-based PET subsystem fully integrated in a 7 T preclinical MRI based on the dry magnet technology. Experimentations s…

ESGAR consensus statement on liver MR imaging and clinical use of liver-specific contrast agents
2016
Objectives: To develop a consensus and provide updated recommendations on liver MR imaging and the clinical use of liver-specific contrast agents. Methods: The European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR) formed a multinational European panel of experts, selected on the basis of a literature review and their leadership in the field of liver MR imaging. A modified Delphi process was adopted to draft a list of statements. Descriptive and Cronbach’s statistics were used to rate levels of agreement and internal reliability of the consensus. Results: Three Delphi rounds were conducted and 76 statements composed on MR technique (n = 17), clinical application of liver-speci…

18F-FDG PET imaging of breast cancer : evaluation of the metabolic behaviour of the different breast cancer subtypes and prediction of the tumor resp…
2015
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with 18Fluoro-deoxyglucose (18F-FDG) is the reference imaging examination for in-vivo quantification of the glucidic metabolism of tumour cells. It allows for the monitoring of tumour metabolic changes during chemotherapy. Breast cancer comprises several distinct genomic entities with different biological characteristics and clinical behaviours, leading to different tailored treatments. The aim of this doctoral thesis was to evaluate the relationship between the different biological entities of breast cancer and the tumour metabolic behaviour during neoadjuvant chemotherapy. We have also retrieved, among the various metabolic parameters on PET images, the …
Applications and development of acoustic and microwave atomic force microscopy for high resolution tomography analysis
2016
The atomic force microscope (AFM) is a powerful tool for the characterization of organic and inorganic materials of interest in physics, biology and metallurgy. However, conventional scanning probe microscopy techniques are limited to the probing surface properties, while the subsurface analysis remains difficult beyond nanoindentation methods. Thus, the present thesis is focused on two novel complementary scanning probe techniques for high-resolution volumetric investigation that were develop to tackle this persisting challenge in nanometrology.The first technique considered, called Mode Synthesizing Atomic Force Microscopy (MSAFM), has been exploited in collaboration with Dr. Laurene Teta…
