In this case report we present a 93-year-old patient with a sigmoid carcinoma inside an irreducible inguinal hernia, which was diagnosed prior to surgery. We chose to perform a sigmoid resect...

Both of these issues are critical for the employment of face recognition systems in high security applications, such as embassy perimeters, federal plazas, and the like. We propose novel imaging solutions that address these d...
