Evaluation of lacrimal drainage system by radionuclide dacryoscintigraphy in patients with epiphora

Introduction: This study was done to determine the site of obstruction in lacrimal drainage system in Asian patients suffering from epiphora and to determine the transit time taken for the tracer material to reach the lacrimal sac and the nasal cavity. Methods:Dacryoscintigraphy was performed using radionuclide technetium-99m pertechnetate (99m...

Developing a Drain for Drainage of Seroma: Evaluation of Its Efficacy with External Drainage

Introduction:  Seroma formation continues to be a problem for patients undergoing surgery of the breast or axilla for invasive breast cancer. In general, seroma usually disappears within several weeks; however, some patients are troubled by chronic seroma. Several techniques have been utilized to minimize seroma formation, with no consistent success. Considering the high prevalence of seroma in...

An integrated drainage network analysis system for agricultural drainage management. Part 1: the system

This is the ®rst of two papers that elaborate an integrated drainage network analysis system (IDNAS) for agricultural drainage management. In this paper, the system components, functions and implementation are presented. The IDNAS comprises an agricultural drainage network module, an evapotranspiration (ET) module and an event-based spatio-temporal module. The network module is designed to mode...

Chronic subdural hematoma: drainage versus no drainage.

Second, we believe that to compare the two surgical techniques, there must be a certain consistency in the two study groups. The authors only indicate the age and sex distribution of both groups, however it is very important to know several things that make the series are not significantly homogeneous and therefore the results may be biased. It is important to know that the degree of clinical s...
