Understanding brain diseases such as categorizing Brain-Tumor (BT) is critical to assess the tumors and facilitate patient with proper cure per their categorizations. Numerous imaging schemes exist for BT detection, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), generally utilized because of better quality images reality depending on non-ionizing radiation. This paper proposes an approach detect distinctive...

Background and Purpose: Nowadays, breast cancer is reported as one of the most common cancers amongst women. Early detection of the cancer type is essential to aid in informing subsequent treatments. The newest proposed breast cancer detectors are based on deep learning. Most of these works focus on large-datasets and are not developed for small datasets. Although the large datasets might lead ...

STUDY DESIGN Agreement study. PURPOSE To validate the interrater reliability of the histopathological classification of the post-laminectomy epidural fibrosis in an animal model. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Epidural fibrosis is a common cause of failed back surgery syndrome. Many animal experiments have been developed to investigate the prevention of epidural fibrosis. One of the common outcome ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE MRI may be used for noninvasive assessment of atherosclerotic lesions; however, MRI evaluation of plaque composition requires validation against an accepted reference standard, such as the American Heart Association (AHA) lesion grade, defined by histopathological examination. METHODS Forty-eight carotid endarterectomy specimen cross-sections had AHA lesion grade determ...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) may originate from heterogeneous neuroendocrine cells. The incidence is increasing worldwide, and World Health Organization (WHO) updated its classification in 2010. We investigated clinical characteristics of gastroenteropancreatic NETs in a single center. METHODS Clinicopathologic characteristics of patients with pathologically confirmed gastroen...

AIMS To determine important factors influencing recurrence after local excision of duct carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast. MATERIALS AND METHODS The extent (size) in millimetres, classification (by cytonuclear grade (NHSBSP system), by extent of necrosis, and by the Van Nuys system), and excision margins of 115 cases of screen detected DCIS treated by local excision were measured. A prog...

The term “high-grade non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas” refers to three histologic subtypes categorized in the Working Formulation1 classification (Table 10–1). At that time, the definitions of low-, intermediate-, and high-grade lymphomas were based on differences in survival, and those with the worst prognoses were considered the high-grade histologic subtypes of small noncleaved cell lymphoma (SNCCL),...
