Congenital goiter is a very uncommon cause of neonatal neck mass. Administration antithyroid drugs or radiation exposure during pregnancy may result in reduced synthesis thyroxine and congenital with without thyroid dysfunction. We report case full term, newborn male baby who had normal functions but was born swelling no apparent abnormalities. Maternal investigations for function tests were fo...

background:   objective: the objective of the present study was to evaluate the application of two dimensional ultrasound (2-dus) and real time three dimensional ultrasound (3-dus) in differentiating various type of septated uterus. hysteroscopy confirmation was assigned as the gold standard.   materials and methods: this retrospective study was performed among 215 infertile women with suspecte...

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Perfusion abnormalities precede wall motion abnormalities, ECG changes, angina in the etiology CAD. myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) can detect alterations due to pathology at sites such as endothelium, microvasculature, epicardial coronary arteries. Thus, it measures universal burden ischemic heart (IHD...

Abstract Background The aim of this retrospective study is to assess the incidence and type lung perfusion abnormalities in non-hospitalized patients diagnosed with mild COVID-19 infection after de-isolation. Data from 56 referred our nuclear medicine department July–December 2020 for a only SPECT/CT or ventilation were collected. Images assessed presence defects. CT component was also mosaic a...

Computer-assisted image analysis is useful for quantifying the histologic and molecular changes of sun-induced squamous cell carcinoma progression. We used the CAS 200 image analysis system to measure nuclear morphometric parameters, p53 expression, and proliferation markers in actinic keratosis (AK), sun-exposed, and normal skin in 51 patients. Nuclear morphometry revealed significant increase...

A bystander effect is biological changes in non-irradiated cells by transmitted signals from irradiated bystander cells, which causes the radiation toxic effects on the adjacent non-irradiated tissues. This phenomenon occurs by agents such as ionizing radiation, ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and chemotherapy. The bystander effect includes biological processes such as damage to DNA, cell death, ch...

purpose: surgeons performing an ilioinguinal exposure for acetabular fracture surgery need to be aware of aberrant findings such as inguinal hernias and spermatic cord lesions. the purpose of this study is to report these occurrences in a clinical series of adult males undergoing acetabular fracture fixation and a series of adult male cadavers. the secondary aim is to characterize these abnorma...
