Laryngopyocele recurrence after initial surgical resection is a very rare occurrence. We present a case of recurrent laryngopyocele in which CT fluoroscopy-guided hookwire placement was used to facilitate resection. In this article, we illustrate the imaging findings of laryngopyocele, review the approach to management, and describe the CT fluoroscopy-guided hookwire placement procedure.

Combining forms such as over-, underand ill-, as in overloaded, underpaid and ill-nourished show a similar distribution and pattern of behavior, and are thus likely to be amenable to a similar analisis, but since their syntax and semantics is slightly di erent from that of manner adverbs, we will not discuss them here. a degree reading and a \quality" reading in examples like (3a), but only a q...

The paper presents a service-oriented distributed modeling and simulation framework that supports the development and evaluation of large scale distributed systems such as network-centric and system-of-systems applications. The distinct features of the framework include a modeling and specification language, dynamic model checking for completeness and consistency, automated code generation from...

In this paper we categorize the coherence traac in update-based protocols and show that, for most applications , more than 90% of all updates generated by the protocol are unnecessary. We identify application characteristics that generate useless update traac, and compare the isolated and combined eeects of several software and hardware techniques for eliminating useless updates. These techniqu...

Many video sequences consist of a locally dynamic background containing moving foreground subjects. In this paper we propose a novel way of re-displaying these sequences, by giving the user control over a virtual camera frame. Based on video mosaicing, we first compute a static high quality background panorama. After segmenting and removing the foreground subjects from the original video, the r...

The purpose of the study was to investigate Finnish elementary and high school students' skills and practices of using the new information and communication technologies (ICT). Beliefs about the importance of ICT were also assessed. Five hundred and ®fteen students responded to a self-report questionnaire. The students attended 25 schools that used ICT intensively and represented all provinces ...

We study, in various special cases, total distributions on the product of a finite collection of finite probability spaces and, in particular, the question of when the probability distribution of each factor space is determined by the total

The word “researcher” is loaded and often confusing. It takes years to become one and to master all of its aspects. In this paper, we investigate whether or not this process of “becoming” can be catalyzed through education. The focus will be on wireless communications, though the same principle could very well be replicated to other disciplines.
