The analysis of the retinal vasculature represents a crucial stage in diagnosis several diseases. An exhaustive involves segmenting vessels and classifying them into veins arteries. In this work, we present an accurate approach, based on deep neural networks, for joint segmentation classification arteries from color fundus images. presented approach decomposes task three related subtasks: arter...

cardiac hydatid cyst (chc) is a rare disease that was endemic in some regions especially in sheep-raising areas. the most commonly accepted theory for the routes of heart involvement in hydatid cyst was infestation by the hexacanthus embryo through coronary arteries. here, we describe a case with the primitive cardiac hydatid cyst located around the pulmonary valve (pv) and main pulmonary arter...

  Background and Objective: Ischemic heart disease (IHD) following atherosclerosis is the most common cause of cardiac deaths world wide. We aimed to investigate the pathologic features of atherosclerosis in non cardiac death cases to have an estimate of atherosclerosis prevalence in Mashad (North east of Iran). Patients and Methods : This descriptive (cross sectional) study was done, during ...

Introduction:In this study, a non-invasive method based on consecutive ultrasonic image processing is introduced to assess time rate changes of the carotid artery wall displacement, velocity and acceleration in the longitudinal direction. The application of these parameters to discriminate healthy and atherosclerotic arteries was evaluated. Methods:Longitudinal displacement rate of common ...

Objective- Analysis of the PSV (peak systolic velocity), EDV (end diastolic velocity) and RI (Resistant Index) in external ophthalmic and the long ciliary ophthalmic arteries in the cat by pulse Doppler. Design- Descriptive study Animals- 12 short haired “Tomcats” weighted about 3.9± 0.9 Kg no e general and optic disease in clinical, paraclinical and ophthalmoscopic examinations. Pr...

Brachiocephalic arteries in quails are large arteries which are arising separately from the aortic arch. The aim of the present study was to determine the histomorphometric aspects of brachiocephalic arteries in the Japanese quail. The different layers of the brachiocephalic artery were studied quantitatively in 10, 20 and 60 days-old Japanese quail; (n = 6) and both sexes. Luminal diameter, th...

introduction: we did this study because there were a few studies about aorto-branch junction. methods: four light microscope and electron microscope study, the abdominal aorta, renal artery, and the adjoining right and left renal arteries were dissected out from 4 neonate dogs. results: based on the results, there is only one cell type in the tunica intima of endothelium in both arteries. in ab...

background: the goal of this study was to determine the reliability of tcd in evaluation of vertebrobasilar arteries in comparison with brain mra in patients suffering from acute vertebrobasilar stroke. methods: samples were patients with definite clinical diagnosis of vertebrobasilar stroke. for all patients brain mri, mra and tcd were performed during the first 48 hours of admission. basilar ...
