Does rapid quantitative assessment of the pig pancreas biopsy predict islet yield?
Our study suggests that the islet distribution of splenic lobe biopsies can be a reliable predictor of islet yield from pig pancreata.
Our results suggest that (i) hippocampal and amygdala but not entorhinal cortex, volumes differ between AD and LBD and (ii) factors other than current markers of neurodegenerative pathological change are responsible for atrophy of medial temporal lobe structures in AD and LBD.
