the ramifications of the portal vein in the liver of horses were studied by using corrosion casting and gross dissection. the portal vein in the horse supplies the hepatic lobes by six major branches. the right lobe is supplied by three main branches, namely the dorsal diaphragmatic, the right caudodorsal and the right intermediate branches. the left branch supplies the left lateral and medial ...

The Concordance-based Medial Axis Transform (CMAT) presented in this paper is a multiscale medial axis (MMA) algorithm that computes medial evidence from grey-level boundary measures. It differs from previous algorithms of this type in considering the symmetry of both boundary position and strength. The resultant MMA transform is not prone to the generation of spurious medial responses exhibite...

This paper presents a novel processing scheme for the automatic computation of a medial shape model which is representative for an object population with shape variability. The sensitivity of medial descriptions to object variations and small boundary perturbations are fundamental problems of any skeletonization technique. These problems are approached with the computation of a model with commo...

The popularity of medial axis in shape modeling and analysis comes from several of its well known fundamental properties. For example, medial axis captures the connectivity of the domain, has a lower dimension than the space itself, and is closely related to the distance function constructed over the same domain. We propose the new concept of a medial zone of an n-dimensional semi-analytic doma...

tendon just proximal to the navicular bone tubercle and bifurcates to medial and lateral branches. The medial branch of the deep branch of the medial plantar artery nourishes the skin of the medial aspect of the foot along the midlateral line of the first metacarpus. A flap can be extended to the middle of the first metacarpus distally and the medial malleolus proximally. The maximum size of a ...

Este texto visa apresentar o aborto como uma experiência estética em que um fluxo de comunicação medial é interrompido. Para mostrar a medialidade se dá no corpo feminino, buscamos as possíveis fontes do medo na quase ausência representação mítica e recorremos ao conceito “nobjetos” (sangue, sons, líquido amniótico) para identificar tipo relação entre mãe feto ambos não distinguem. Concluímos s...

BACKGROUND While the anatomy of the medial part of the knee has been described qualitatively, quantitative descriptions of the attachment sites of the main medial knee structures have not been reported. The purpose of the present study was to verify the qualitative anatomy of medial knee structures and to perform a quantitative evaluation of their anatomic attachment sites as well as their rela...
