This research aims to study testis and epididymis of dry land goat (Capra hircus) on B-mode ultrasound imaging. Twelve adult local male goats were examined normal testes ultrasonic appearances. real time scanner with a 7.5 MHz, linear array transducer was used evaluate the echotexture testicular parenchyma, mediastinum epididymis. The parenchyma represented uniformly homogenous moderately echog...

In a retrospective survey of a large obstetrical ultrasound experience, 10 echogenic adnexal masses in nine patients with a coexistent intrauterine pregnancy were detected and analyzed. Definitive follow-up data available for seven of the nine patients disclosed three ovarian teratomas, two hemorrhagic corpus luteum cysts, one endometrioma, one inflammatory mass, and one colonic pseudomass. In ...

Non-calcified echogenic renal cortical nodules are commonly detected with abdominal ultrasound (US). The majority of these nodules represent benign angiomyolipomas (AMLs), which are present in 0.3–2.1 % of the population at autopsy [1]. The increased echogenicity (in the absence of calcification) of renal AML is due to the presence of gross or mature fat within the nodule [2]. Although renal AM...

The nasal cavity possesses many advantages as a site for drug delivery, such as, ease of administration, applicability for long term treatments and a large surface area for absorption. One important limiting factor for nasal drug delivery is the limited time available for absorption within the nasal cavity due to mucociliary clearance. Several drug delivery systems including different kinds of ...

due to poor solubility in lipids, many of bioactive components (nutraceutical materials) show less bioactivity than optimal state in water solution. phytosomes improve absorption and bioavailability of biomaterials. liposomes, spherical shaped nanocarriers, were discovered in the 1960s by bangham. due to their composition, variability and structural properties, liposomes and phytosomes are extr...

objective: in order to overcome the limitation of systemic administration of methylene blue, this study investigated the encapsulation of methylene blue in polymeric liposomes and drug release following sonication. methods: we encapsulated methylene blue into nanoliposomes. the dynamic light scattering (dls) method was used to measure the size distribution of the liposomes. after loading methyl...

PURPOSE To report the radiological findings of a pseudolesion in the myometrium mimicking adenomyosis presumably due to air intravasation during sonohysterography (SHG). MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) examination results before and after SHGs, in which echogenic foci were found suggesting adenomyosis in the myometrium, and...

A 40‐year‐old male with no significant medical history was admitted to the hospital with yellowish discoloration of eyes, mild right upper quadrant pain, and intermittent fever for last 1 week. Physical examination revealed icterus and hepatomegaly. Laboratory examination showed obstructive jaundice (aspartate transaminase‐230 U/L, alanine transaminase-180 U/L, alkaline phosphatase-370 U/L, and...
