Interventional Radiology (IR) is rapidly increasing in terms of the types of procedures and the volume of cases. The growth of this field is evidenced by the new residency training program for this specialty. As IR requires proficient technical skills in interventions, assessment of those skills is...

By: Richard D. Cummings One of the smallest known naturally-occurring glycoprotein in mammals is likely to be CD24, also known as nectadrin. Although it behaves in analyses as a 23-60 kDa glycoprotein, the glycoprotein from mice has only 27 amino acids (human protein has 30 amino acids) (1-3)...

By: Richard D. Cummings While the N-glycosylation sequon N-X-S/T in glycoproteins of plants, fungi, and animals, is well known, there are many reports of alternative sequons for N-glycosylation in animals (1), including the sequences -N-X-C- (2-4), -N-X-V- (5,6), -N-V-E- (7), -N-X-A- (8), -N-X-G- (9...

Many decisions that general clinicians need to make daily are based on a risk assessment of different clinical (medical or surgical) interventions relative to the risk of non-intervention. We have a program for developing imaging protocols to better assess risk for patients in several clinical...
