inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (imt) is a rare neoplastic lesion with tendency toward local aggressive behavior and recurrence. the tumor most commonly occurs in the pulmonary system of children and young adult, although it may rarely develop in older patients and other organs. symptoms are non-specific and depend on the location of the tumor. the gastrointestinal tract is rarely the primar...

In non-invasive thermal diagnostics for the location of a tumor, accurate correlations between the thermal image on skin surface and interior human physiology are often desired, which require general solutions for the bioheat equation. In this paper we use sensitivity analysis in order to compute the shape derivative of the funtional that provides the minimum (the geometrical position of the tu...

background and importance: our learning curve during two decades of neurosurgical practice has been changed from an abstractive to a more meaningful and conductive state. in cases of fifth nerve neurinoma, pre-operative anatomopathologic diagnosis could lead us to a pre-planned program during and after the surgery to get the safe surgical result. case presentation: representation of two complex...
