Abstract Radiation induced pseudoprogression (PsP) of brain tumors is defined radiologically as new or enlarging areas non-tumor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast enhancement developing within the initial 3-6 months after completing radiation. Distinguishing PsP from genuine tumor progression utmost importance in deciding clinical course a patient. Although it typically diagnosed radiol...

Background: Cardiac injury is common in patients who are hospitalized with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and portends poorer prognosis. However, the mechanism type of myocardial damage associated severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) remain uncertain. Methods: We conducted a systematic pathological analysis 40 hearts from dying COVID-19 Bergamo, Italy, to determine mechanisms c...

introduction: temporal lobe epilepsy (tle) is the most common and drug resistant epilepsy in adults. due to behavioral, morphologic and electrographic similarities, pilocarpine model of epilepsy best resembles tle. this study was aimed at determination of the changes in electroencephalogram (eeg) sub-bands amplitude during focal seizures in the pilocarpine model of epilepsy. analysis of these c...

this paper deals with the basic notions of k-tautimmersions . these notions come from two special cases; that is, tight and taut immersions. tight and taut based on high and distance functions respectively and their basic notions are normal bundle, endpoint map, focal point, critical normal. we generalize hight and distance functions to cylindrical function and define basic notions of k-taut im...

osinophilia is defined as the presence of more than 500 eosinophils/ L in the peripheral blood, and may be accompanied by eosinophil infiltration in tissues. Focal eosinophilic infiltration in the lungs and liver is relatively common and is often associated with a parasitic infection, drug hypersensitivity, allergic diseases, collagen vascular diseases, and internal malignancies such as Hodgkin...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE MR susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) is a highly sensitive technique for detection of hemorrhage, but its utility in the evaluation of children with laminar necrosis is not yet known. We assessed whether cortical laminar necrosis in pediatric patients contains hemorrhage on SWI. MATERIALS AND METHODS "Cortical laminar necrosis" was defined as a hyperintense cortical...
