Vessels of the Neck
نویسنده
چکیده
Vascular imaging techniques such as DSA, CT angiography and MR angiography allow diagnosis of important clinical conditions involving the vasculature of the neck. However, the evaluation of the carotid arteries for clinically significant atherosclerotic disease is by far the most frequent indication for imaging the neck vasculature. As a result, this presentation will include discussion of important vasculature conditions involving the neck and associated artifacts, but will focus on carotid atherosclerotic imaging.

Density of mast-cells and Microvessels Density in head and neck cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Background and Aim: Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is the second most common skin cancer. Mast cells may play a role in tumor progression and metastasis by increasing angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of mast cells by increasing angiogenesis in invasion of head and neck cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional stud...
متن کاملProtein 53 expression in a mixed Labrador subcutaneous lymphoma
An 11 year – old mixed female Labrador was presented with two masses in trunk and neck. The tumoral masses were excised and sent for histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses. Histopathological examination of masses revealed diffuse infiltration of small sized lymphoid cells in subcutaneous tissue which were intense around the blood vessels. More than 10% lymphoid cells were CD3 positi...
متن کاملReconstruction of Blood Vessels from Neck CT Datasets using Stable 3D Mass-Spring Models
Preoperative neck dissection planning benefits from a smooth, organic visualization of the main blood vessels of the neck, in particular the carotid artery and jugular vein. While most reconstruction techniques for vasculature are designed for segmenting the complete vessel tree, our goal is to isolate these specific blood vessels of the neck from the CT dataset, and to exclude irrelevant vascu...
متن کاملAnatomical Study of Subclavian Artery and Its Branches
Background: The branches of right and left subclavian arteries are important in conducting of blood to spinal cord, posterior cranial fossa, base of the neck, thyroid gland, wall of the thorax and abdomen. The routine use of internal thoracic artery as a conduit in coronary artery bypass grafting surgery requires appreciation of the anatomical variations of these vessels. So far, there is not a...
متن کاملInternal mammary artery and vein as recipient vessels in head and neck reconstruction.
IMPORTANCE Free-tissue transfer for head and neck reconstruction has evolved since the mid-1950s. A variety of different recipient arteries and veins have been described for use in head and neck reconstruction. In our experience, the internal mammary artery (IMA) and internal mammary vein (IMV) have become increasingly important for achieving successful microvascular reconstruction. OBJECTIVE...
متن کاملFree flaps for head and neck cancer reconstruction: Does the use of both large cervical vessels as recipient vessels and the employment of end-to-side technique enhance flap survival?
This study specifically investigates whether the use of both large cervical vessels (the external carotid artery and the internal jugular vein) as recipient vessels with end-to-side anastomosis enhance free flap survival in head and neck cancer reconstruction, when compared with the use of other standard smaller neck recipient vessels and end-to-end anastomosis. A total of 84 consecutive patien...
