Peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia is one of the unusual developmental anomalies diaphragm in dogs and cats, which are presented without any specific signs. Presented dog was examined clinically, physically later subjected for chest radiograph echocardiography confirmation. Surgical repair carried out through a midline celiotomy closed by opposing margins two layer using simple continuou...

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) presents a highly promising and challenging advanced application of flatpanel detectors (FPDs). The great advantage of this adaptable technology is in the potential for sub-mm 3D spatial resolution in combination with soft-tissue detectability. While the former is achieved naturally by CBCT systems incorporating modern FPD designs (e.g., 200 – 400 um pixel p...

We present the results of a detailed correlation study between the soft X-ray, hard X-ray, and radio emission (obtained from RXTE ASM , BATSE, and GBI observations, respectively) of the bright radio emitting Galactic X-ray binary Cygnus X-3. We detect a very strong positive correlation between the soft X-ray and radio emission during the low-hard and minor flaring periods of the source, and an ...

This article presents the data of using three phase-based X-ray imaging techniques to characterize biomaterial scaffold and soft tissues in situ, as reported in our study "Low-dose phase-based X-ray imaging techniques for in situ soft tissue engineering assessments" [1]. The examined parameters include the radiation dose, scan time, and image quality, which are all critical to longitudinal in s...

OBJECTIVE To present a case of chronic elbow pain as a result of a hidden underlying osteochondral defect. CLINICAL FEATURES A 17-year old baseball player presented with chronic lateral elbow pain. Examination revealed swelling of the elbow with signs of possible ligament, muscle, and tendon injury. DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT Although there was apparent soft-tissue injury, the elbow swelling c...

Triquetrum fractures are the second most common carpal fractures after scaphoid. However they are seldom encountered due to their clinical symptoms and since they cause less functional disability. They can be misdiagnosed as soft-tissue injuries by considering the similar localization of pain and prolonged symptoms. The majority of triquetrum fractures can be diagnosed with direct X-ray. Obtain...

A 10-year-old girl presented with a 1-year history of an eruption on her hands. Physical examination revealed soft, bluish slightly tender subcutaneous nodules and swellings in the ulnar site and palmar aspect of five fingers of the right hand and dorsal aspect of three fingers of the left hand without any gross deformity in fingers and long bones (figure 1). History of pathological fract...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2014206287 DESCRIPTION A 45-year-old man presented with non-tender soft tissue swelling on the medial aspect of the right foot with pain during dorsiflexion and eversion of the foot. X-ray (figure 1) and MRI (figure 2) of the mass revealed a heterogeneous soft tissue mass arising out of the calcan...

We describe the preparation of a biological tissue for imaging in a transmission soft X-ray microscope. Sections of exocrine pancreas embedded in glycol methacrylate polymer, an embedding medium widely used in visible light and electron microscopy, were examined. Contrast was based primarily on the nitrogen content of the tissue, and dual-wavelength imaging at the nitrogen K-shell absorption ed...

We have reanalysed the ASCA X-ray spectrum of the bright symbiotic star CH Cyg, which exhibits apparently distinct hard and soft X-ray components. Our analysis demonstrates that the soft X-ray emission can be interpreted as scattering of the hard X-ray component in a photo-ionised medium surrounding the white dwarf. This is in contrast to previous analyses in which the soft X-ray emission was f...
