AbstractRecent work by the Museum of New Mexico resulted in the excavation of eight stone enclosures similar to those investigated by E. B. Renaud (1942), R. G. Campbell (1969), and others in southeastern Colorado and northeastern New Mexico. The site, tentatively dated within the span A.D. 1000-1150, is assigned to the Early Panhandle period defined by Campbell (1969). There is a general likeness of the ceramics to Taos Plain and Taos Incised. Projectile points consist almost entirely of a corner-notched form called Scallorn Points elsewhere. From all indications, the occupation, probably by an estimated 40 to 45 individuals, was short, with staggered abandonment. The evidence, though not conclusive, points to a hunting and gathering economy with the site serving as a base camp for a number of diversified activities. Detailed examination of the lithic remains resulted in the postulation of a projectile point production sequence which, at least in part, casts doubt on the validity of Fresno, Young and similar points as projectile points. 相似文献

A Keystone symposium held in Taos, New Mexico, 21-26 March 2002 provided the setting for a pioneering gathering of cell biologists and neuroscientists. Under the guidance of organizers Tom Pollard, James Sabry and Carla Schatz, the meeting, entitled 'Cellular Motility and Signaling in the Wiring and Plasticity of Nervous Systems', brought together two groups of researchers that ordinarily rarely connect at scientific conferences. The goal of this new collegial interchange was to fuse expertise on cytoskeletal dynamics with emerging ideas in neuronal development. 相似文献

Interviews with 25 Spanish-Americans of Taos County, New Mexico, indicate that time and acculturation have greatly eroded the belief in and practice of curanderismo, the traditional folk medical system of the Southwest. Curanderismo in northern New Mexico today has moved from being a primary and important source of medical care to one used alternatively and very occasionally in cases of pediatric disorders, chronic illnesses and pain, and for those maladies still classified according to the traditional folk beliefs. 相似文献

A brief history of the evolution of the DNA repair field over the past four decades is presented, as documented through the Proceedings from a selected series of five scientific meetings, beginning with the 1965 Radiation Microbiology Conference, held at the University of Chicago with only 40 participants, and extending through the 1988 UCLA Symposium on "Mechanisms and Consequences of DNA Damage Processing", convened in Taos, New Mexico, with over 400 participants. The published proceedings and recorded discussions from these early conferences contain notable insights, of which many have turned out to be remarkably clairvoyant while others must be reevaluated in light of recent discoveries and developments in the field. 相似文献

We present the first application of Zernike phase-contrast transmission electron microscopy to single-particle 3D reconstruction of a protein, using GroEL chaperonin as the test specimen. We evaluated the performance of the technique by comparing 3D models derived from Zernike phase contrast imaging, with models from conventional underfocus phase contrast imaging. The same resolution, about 12A, was achieved by both imaging methods. The reconstruction based on Zernike phase contrast data required about 30% fewer particles. The advantages and prospects of each technique are discussed. 相似文献

The 2002 Keystone symposia held in Taos, New Mexico (21-26 February) saw the convergence of two related fields; Epigenetics in Development and Disease, and RNA Interference, Cosuppression and Related Phenomena. The meeting highlights presented here concentrate upon the sessions within the Epigenetics in Development and Disease meeting, although there were joint sessions which will also be discussed. Of course epigenetic regulation is not restricted to the vertebrates but I have chosen, rightly or wrongly, to limit the highlights to those concerning vertebrates. 相似文献

Optical-CT dual-modality imaging requires the mapping between 2D fluorescence images and 3D body surface light flux. In this paper, we proposed an optical-CT dual-modality image mapping algorithm based on the Digitally Reconstructed Radiography (DRR) registration. In the process of registration, a series of DRR images were computed from CT data using the ray casting algorithm. Then, the improved HMNI similarity strategy based on Hausdorff distance was used to complete the registration of the white-light optical images and DRR virtual images. According to the corresponding relationship obtained by the image registration and the Lambert’s cosine law based on the pin-hole imaging model, the 3D light intensity distribution on the surface of the object could be solved. The feasibility and effectiveness of the mapping algorithm are verified by the irregular phantom and mouse experiments. 相似文献

Focusing light on infection in four dimensions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The fusion of cell biology with microbiology has bred a new discipline, cellular microbiology, in which the primary aim is to understand host-pathogen interactions at a tissue, cellular and molecular level. In this context, we require techniques allowing us to probe infection in situ and extrapolate quantitative information on its spatiotemporal dynamics. To these ends, fluorescent light-based imaging techniques offer a powerful tool, and the state-of-the-art is defined by paradigms using so-called multidimensional (multi-D) imaging microscopy. Multi-D imaging aims to visualize and quantify biological events through time and space and, more specifically, refers to combinations of: three (3D, volume), four (4D, time) and five (5D, multiwavelength)-dimensional recordings. Successful multi-D imaging depends upon understanding the available technologies and their limitations. This is especially true in the field of microbiology where visualization of infectious/pathogenic activities inside living host systems presents particular technical challenges. Thus, as multi-D imaging rapidly becomes a common bench tool to the cellular microbiologist, this review provides the new user with some of the necessary technical insight required to get the best from these methods. 相似文献

This report, compiled by experts on the treatment of mobile targets with advanced radiotherapy, summarizes the main conclusions and innovations achieved during the 4D treatment planning workshop 2013. This annual workshop focuses on research aiming to advance 4D radiotherapy treatments, including all critical aspects of time resolved delivery, such as in-room imaging, motion detection, motion managing, beam application, and quality assurance techniques. The report aims to revise achievements in the field and to discuss remaining challenges and potential solutions. As main achievements advances in the development of a standardized 4D phantom and in the area of 4D-treatment plan optimization were identified. Furthermore, it was noticed that MR imaging gains importance and high interest for sequential 4DCT/MR data sets was expressed, which represents a general trend of the field towards data covering a longer time period of motion. A new point of attention was work related to dose reconstructions, which may play a major role in verification of 4D treatment deliveries. The experimental validation of results achieved by 4D treatment planning and the systematic evaluation of different deformable image registration methods especially for inter-modality fusions were identified as major remaining challenges. A challenge that was also suggested as focus for future 4D workshops was the adaptation of image guidance approaches from conventional radiotherapy into particle therapy. Besides summarizing the last workshop, the authors also want to point out new evolving demands and give an outlook on the focus of the next workshop. 相似文献

Considering the increasing development of three dimensional (3D) imaging, the 3D assessment of the acetabular coverage is to become the most interesting tool for the detection of acetabular pathologies. Biplanar X-rays based methods allow a 3D reconstruction of the hip with a reduced radiation dose. This study proposes a 3D assessment method of the acetabular coverage from biplanar X-rays or from an anteroposterior X-ray (conventional clinical imaging). An in vitro evaluation of the method was performed on six hip joints in comparison with computed tomography. The global coverage, the local coverage and the acetabular rim orientation were estimated in 3D. The mean global acetabular coverage was 40% with an estimated mean accuracy of 1.3% for the biplanar X-rays based method. This study evaluated a 3D assessment method of the acetabular coverage from biplanar X-rays or anteroposterior X-ray and open the way for clinical in vivo applications. 相似文献

Near-infrared (NIR) optical imaging is a noninvasive and nonionizing modality that is emerging as a diagnostic tool for breast cancer. The handheld optical devices developed to date using the NIR technology are predominantly developed for spectroscopic applications. A novel handheld probe-based optical imaging device has been recently developed toward area imaging and tomography applications. The three-dimensional (3D) tomographic imaging capabilities of the device have been demonstrated from previous fluorescence studies on tissue phantoms. In the current work, fluorescence imaging studies are performed on tissue phantoms, in vitro, and in vivo tissue models to demonstrate the fast two-dimensional (2D) surface imaging capabilities of this flexible handheld-based optical imaging device, toward clinical breast imaging studies. Preliminary experiments were performed using target(s) of varying volume (0.23 and 0.45 cm3) and depth (1–2 cm), using indocyanine green as the fluorescence contrast agent in liquid phantom, in vitro, and in vivo tissue models. The feasibility of fast 2D surface imaging (∼5 seconds) over large surface areas of 36 cm2 was demonstrated from various tissue models. The surface images could differentiate the target(s) from the background, allowing a rough estimate of the target''s location before extensive 3D tomographic analysis (future studies). 相似文献

This study was aimed at developing an optical molecular imaging approach to measure differences in uptake and intracellular retention of choline in clinically isolated tissue biopsies from head and neck cancer patients. An optically detectable analogue of choline (propargyl choline) was synthesized and evaluated in 2D and 3D models and clinically isolated paired biopsies (n = 22 biopsies). Fluorescence contrast between clinically abnormal and normal tissues based on uptake and intracellular retention of propargyl choline was measured and correlated with pathologic diagnosis. Results in 2D and 3D models demonstrated a rapid uptake of propargyl choline in cancer cells, uniform permeation in tissue models, and specific detection of intracellular entrapped propargyl choline using the click chemistry reaction with an azide-modified Alexa 488 dye. Fluorescence imaging measurements following topical delivery of propargyl choline in clinically isolated biopsies showed that the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of neoplastic tissues was four-fold to five-fold higher than the MFI of clinically and pathologically normal samples. This difference in fluorescence contrast was measured on the basis of comparison of paired biopsy sets isolated from individual patients as well as comparison of clinically abnormal and normal biopsies independent of anatomic locations in the head and neck cavity and across diverse patients. In conclusion, a novel imaging approach based on monoalkyne-modified choline was developed and validated using cell and tissue models. Results in clinically isolated tissue biopsies demonstrate a significant fluorescent contrast between neoplastic and normal tissues and illustrate high specificity of the optical imaging approach. 相似文献

An interview with two key figures in the indigenous video movement in Bolivia conducted at the Taos Talking Pictures Film Festival in New Mexico. In the interview, Ivan Sanjinés and Jesús Tapia describe the development of indigenous video centers and organizations in Bolivia, their work with video makers across Latin American, their goals during their 2002 U.S. video tour, their reactions to their audience's questions, and notions of authorship and collaboration as a process that extends from communities in which videos are made to hemispheric networks of media makers. I introduce the interview by situating indigenous video in Bolivia within the wider and significant historical shift toward indigenous politics in Bolivia in the 1980s and 1990s and draw from the interview new meanings for the term indigenous media that involve the ways video makers assemble and package a multiplex of technologies, resources, social organizations, cultural principles and imagery into a representational form that extends beyond the completed videotape. 相似文献

Fluorescent microscope imaging technologies have developed at a rapid pace in recent years. High-throughput 2D fluorescent imaging platforms are now in wide use and are being applied on a proteome wide scale. Multiple fluorophore 3D imaging of live cells is being used to give detailed localization and subcellular structure information. Further, 2D and 3D video microscopy are giving important insights into the dynamics of protein localization and transport. In parallel with these developments, significant research has gone into developing new methodologies for quantifying and extracting meaning from the imaging data. Here we outline and give entry points to the literature on approaches to quantification such as segmentation, tracking, automated classification and data visualization. Particular attention is paid to the distinction between and application of concrete quantification measures such as number of objects in a cell, and abstract measures such as texture. 相似文献

The generation of tissue‐like structures in vitro is of major interest for various fields of research including in vitro toxicology, regenerative therapies and tissue engineering. Usually 3D matrices are used to engineer tissue‐like structures in vitro, and for the generation of kidney tubules, 3D gels are employed. Kidney tubules embedded within 3D gels are difficult to access for manipulations and imaging. Here we show how large and functional human kidney tubules can be generated in vitro on 2D surfaces, without the use of 3D matrices. The mechanism used by human primary renal proximal tubule cells for tubulogenesis on 2D surfaces appears to be distinct from the mechanism employed in 3D gels, and tubulogenesis on 2D surfaces involves interactions between epithelial and mesenchymal cells. The process is induced by transforming growth factor‐β1, and enhanced by a 3D substrate architecture. However, after triggering the process, the formation of renal tubules occurs with remarkable independence from the substrate architecture. Human proximal tubules generated on 2D surfaces typically have a length of several millimetres, and are easily accessible for manipulations and imaging, which makes them attractive for basic research and in vitro nephrotoxicology. The experimental system described also allows for in vitro studies on how primary human kidney cells regenerate renal structures after organ disruption. The finding that human kidney cells organize tissue‐like structures independently from the substrate architecture has important consequences for kidney tissue engineering, and it will be important, for instance, to inhibit the process of tubulogenesis on 2D surfaces in bioartificial kidneys. 相似文献
