Abstract Background Primary breast edema can cause marked increase in skin thickness, density and echogenicity due to dense tissue filled with fluid so causes subsequent significant attenuation of both the x-ray ultrasound beams. The study aim is assess value contrast-enhanced digital mammography (CEDM) assessment characterization obscured underlying lesions cases primary edema. Results Fifty f...

1. Parenchymal cells have been prepared from mouse liver by enzymic and mechanical means. 2. The dry weights, protein and DNA contents of these cells have been determined. 3. Mouse liver ;M-' and ;L-type' pyruvate kinases have been prepared free of contamination with each other; their kinetic properties have been examined and a method has been developed for their assay in total liver homogenate...

behçet’s ‎ disease is a multisystem vasculitis. its neurological involvement mostly includes parenchymal and non-parenchymal central nervous system manifestations. peripheral nervous system presentations are rare. a 32-yr-old male patient who fulfilled the international study group criteria for behçet’s disease, referred to our center with walking difficulty and repeated falling downs. neurolog...

the technique of transbronchial lung biopsy (tblb) has expanded the diagnostic yield of bronchoscopy . in this article we are presenting 54 patients with diffuse pulmonary parenchymal involvement who underwent this procedure during six years between june 1980 and december 1989. the diagnostic yield of this technique in diffuse pulmonary parenchymal disease is great and was 66 percent excluding ...

Thirty patients with bilateral lymph node enlargement with or without parenchymal infiltrates on the chest x- ray suspected to have sarcoidosis were studied between June 1980 and December 1989 in our institution. Eleven of these patients who were free of parenchymal infiltrates did not have a biopsy performed and the diagnosis of sarcoidosis was made based on self-limited regression and cl...

Seventy-seven clinically normal children with kidneys of normal size were examined sonographically. Renal parenchymal volumes were calculated and related to age, height, body weight and body surface area; growth charts were constructed. A significant correlation was found between the renal parenchymal volume and the body somatometric parameters. The present report thus provides norms for renal ...

fl-Migrating very-low-density lipoprotein (fl-VLDL) is a cholesteryl-ester-enriched lipoprotein which under normal conditions is rapidly cleared by parenchymal liver cells. In this study the characteristics of the interaction of,6-VLDL with rat parenchymal cells, Hep G2 cells and human parenchymal cells are evaluated. The binding of fl-VLDL to these cells follows saturation kinetics (Bmax respe...
