Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a rare condition. The reported incidence of intrathoracic renal ectopia due to CDH is also rare. A right-sided thoracic kidney is much less common due to the location of the liver. Isolated intrathoracic kidney is usually asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally on chest imaging. The authors report on a 21days old female infant with late-presenting right ...

Landslide is one of the common hazards occurring globally and Malaysia is not spared as well. Over the past four decades, Malaysia has played host to a number of landslide incidents, resulting in significant loss of lives and damage to property. The magnitude of landslide destruction is quite high in Malaysia. A survey has been carried out on 143 respondents in selected areas. This paper presen...

We prove three theorems giving extremal bounds on the incidence structures determined by subsets of the points and blocks of a balanced incomplete block design (BIBD). These results generalize and strengthen known bounds on the number of incidences between points and m-flats in affine geometries over finite fields. First, we show an upper bound on the number of incidences between sufficiently l...

Primary cardiac osteosarcoma is a very rare malignancy with a high incidence of local recurrence and systemic metastasis, contributing to the poor prognosis. Radiological modalities are commonly used for the evaluation of cardiac masses. 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography is a valuable whole-body imaging modality in ...

How much of the combinatorial structure of a pointed polyhedron is contained in its vertex-facet incidences? Not too much, in general, as we demonstrate by examples. However, one can tell from the incidence data whether the polyhedron is bounded. In the case of a polyhedron that is simple and “simplicial,” i.e., a d-dimensional polyhedron that has d facets through each vertex and d vertices on ...

We show that n arbitrary circles in the plane can be cut into O(n) arcs, for any ε > 0, such that any pair of arcs intersect at most once. This improves a recent result of Tamaki and Tokuyama [20]. We use this result to obtain improved upper bounds on the number of incidences between m points and n circles. An improved incidence bound is also obtained for graphs of polynomials of any constant m...

recently, a number of procedures for interventional radiology diagnosis and treatment have been developed by the radiologists. the ‘interventional radiology’ refers to the therapeutic procedures performed under imaging guidance. the emergence of this specialty has been made possible by a lot of advances in the technology, imaging systems, and radiologists experience. interventional radiologists...

  We report two cases of de novo Gemistocytic glioblastomas. In case one, a 35 year male presented with features of raised intracranial pressure and rapid neurological deterioration. In case 2; a 73 year old male presented with rapid neurological deterioration and focal neurological deficits. In both cases imaging findings were suggestive of high grade malignancy involving the brain. This was ...

introduction: detection of malignant cells in the peritoneal cavity indicates the extension of cancer cells. the aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence rate of positive cytology in colorectal cancer and its relationship with the local progress of the tumor.  methods: in a 2-year prospective study in mashhad and iran universities of medical sciences, peritoneal lavage was performed on 40...
