This study was undertaken to provide an anatomical explanation for two soft-tissue structures anecdotally found on axial computed tomography (CT) scan, which are inferior (SI) and lateral (SL) to the head of the clavicle and adjacent to the sternoclavicular joint (SCJ). Three sets of cryosection images were reviewed to identify the anatomical structures corresponding to SI and SL. To demonstrat...

The present study wants to identify the making technique of an early historic pottery type Bangladesh and for this research potshard samples were collected from archaeological excavated site with documented stratigraphic data. used method analysis is known as ‘Polished thin-section’ which now commonly using petrographic in modern world. Another important aspect experiment reproduction same qual...

OBJECTIVES Phase III trials regarding the feasibility of segmentectomy for lung cancer ≤ 2 cm in size are now underway in Japan and the USA. However, despite their small size, lung cancers that show a pure-solid appearance on thin-section computed tomography (CT) are considered to be invasive with a high frequency of nodal involvement. METHODS Between 2008 and 2011, 556 clinical Stage IA lung...

OBJECTIVE To determine the extent to which thin-section and volumetric threedimensional CT can depict airway reactivity to bronchostimulator, and to assess the effect of different airway sizes on the degree of reactivity. MATERIALS AND METHODS In eight dogs, thin-section CT scans were obtained before and after the administration of methacholine and ventolin. Cross-sectional areas of bronchi a...

The relationships between thin elements, commutative shells and connections in cubical ω-categories are explored by a method which does not involve the use of pasting theory or nerves of ω-categories (both of which were previously needed for this purpose; see [2], Section 9). It is shown that composites of commutative shells are commutative and that thin structures are equivalent to appropriate...

BACKGROUND Pseudomonas aeruginosa commonly infects the airways of patients with bronchiectasis. A study was undertaken to examine the relationship between infection of the airways with this pathogen, the morphological pattern of bronchiectasis on thin section computed tomographic (CT) scanning, symptom duration, smoking habits of the patients, and the presence of airflow obstruction. METHODS ...
