Aberrant expression of receptors for platelet-derived growth factor in an anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cell line.

abstract：:Scientific cinematography using ultrafast optical imaging is a common tool to study motion. In opaque organisms or structures, X-ray radiography captures sequences of 2D projections to visualize morphological dynamics, but for many applications full four-dimensional (4D) spatiotemporal information is highly desirable....
