Purpose Gallium-67 (Ga-67) lung scans assess alveolitis and interstitial lung disease, with Ga-67 accumulation correlating with inflammation intensity as seen in lung biopsy sections. Both semi-quantitative and quantitative methods have been used, with the latter providing an inflammatory activity index linked to lung lavage and histopathological scores. However, differing reference points result in varying outcomes. This stud...

This study presents the meteotsunami behavior in response to different storm types in the coasts of southern Asia-Pacific Ocean from 16 years water level records. Through the size- frequency analysis, the dangerous meteotsunami, wave height exceeding 0.3 m, can occur up to 44 events per year. Notably, during the extreme waves of the 2007 event, wave heights reached approximately 0.9-1.5 m in the Taiwan Strait and the western c...
