Calcifying odontogenic cyst is considered as a rare lesion and accounts for 1% of jaw cysts. It represents a heterogeneous group of lesions which exhibit a variety of clinicopathologic and behavioral features. It has been categorized as cyst and neoplasm. Even after several classification and subclassification, COC remains an enigma. WHO classification 2005 has reclassified the lesion as calcif...

The optimal management of bifurcation lesions has received significant interest in recent years and remains a matter debate among the interventional cardiology community. Bifurcation are encountered approximately 21% percutaneous coronary intervention procedures associated with an increased risk major adverse cardiac events. Medina classification been developed attempt to standardise terminolog...

The current study investigates whether texture features extracted from lesion kinetics feature maps can be used for breast cancer diagnosis. Fifty five women with 57 breast lesions (27 benign, 30 malignant) were subjected to dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) on 1.5T system. A linear-slope model was fitted pixel-wise to a representative lesion slice time series and f...

Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education: Glomerulocystic kidney is a lesion with protean causes and clinical manifestations. Recent clinicopathological and molecular genetic analysis have shed light on the varied etiology, symptomatology, presenting features and have allowed a better classification of the disease. An accurate categorization of the lesion is of utmost i...

The main objective of this project is to segment different breast ultrasound images to find out lesion area by discarding the low contrast regions as well as the inherent speckle noise. The proposed method consists of three stages (removing noise, segmentation, classification) in order to extract the correct lesion. We used normalized cuts approach to segment ultrasound images into regions of i...

This short paper reports the method and the evaluation results of Casio and Shinshu University joint team for the ISBI Challenge 2017 – Skin Lesion Analysis Towards Melanoma Detection – Part 3: Lesion Classification hosted by ISIC. Our online validation score was 0.958 with melanoma classifier AUC 0.924 and seborrheic keratosis classifier AUC 0.993.

OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate the anatomical and morphological characterization of coronary bifurcation lesions. STUDY DESIGN The study population consisted of 542 stable patients who underwent coronary angiography. Bifurcation lesions were defined as a lesion >=50% diameter stenosis involving a main branch and/or contiguous side branch with a diameter of >=2.5 mm. Using these criteria, ...

Background. There is only limited evidence available to justify generalized clinical classification and treatment recommendations for iatrogenic bile duct lesions. Methods. Data of 93 patients with iatrogenic bile duct lesions was evaluated retrospectively to analyse the variety of encountered lesions with the Hanover classification and its impact on surgical treatment and outcomes. Results. Bi...

A 34-year-old man with familial adenomatous polyposis and ileo-anal pouch anastomosis was referred for treatment of a nonlifting Paris 0-IIb lesion. The lesion was located 3cm proximal to the ileo-anal anastomosis on the dorsal wall of the J-pouch. No malignant characteristics were seen on narrow-band imaging (Narrow-band imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic [NICE] classification type 2)...

Methods: We developed a method for classifying spatial distributions of regions of interest (ROIs) in brain images. The proposed method is based on computing the Mahalanobis distance between a new sample and datasets related to each considered class (condition). We predict that the new sample belongs to the class corresponding to the dataset that has the smaller Mahalanobis distance from the gi...
