چکیده
A rare type of bezoar composed of coconut matting was found in the stomach of a caucasian man. The exact identity of the fibres was established by scanning electron microscopy, x-ray energy spectroscopy, and microscopic infrared spectroscopy. This report illustrates the importance of these techniques for identifying the nature of foreign material.

Bayesian Image Matting Using Infrared and Color Cues
Extracting foreground objects from an arbitrary natural image or video sequences has become a classical problem in many photo-editing and video compositing applications. This topic has been deeply studied because it's widely used in filming and image rendering industry. With the recent developments in imaging sensors and computing technologies, image matting has become more attractive not only ...
متن کاملNew Surgical Approach for Gastric Bezoar: "Hybrid Access Surgery" Combined Intragastric and Single Port Surgery
Regarding the removal of a gastric bezoar, laparoscopic surgery was performed and it was shown that the laparoscopic approach is safe and feasible. However, the laparoscopic method has the risk of intraabdominal contamination, when the gastric bezoar is retrieved from the gastric lumen in the peritoneal cavity. We developed and applied a new procedure for the removal of the gastric bezoar using...
متن کاملGradient Color Tensor based Approach for Spectral Matting
Image matting aims to extract foreground objects from a given image in a fuzzy mode. One of the major state-of-the-art methods in this field is spectral matting. It automatically computes fuzzy matting components by using the smallest eigenvectors of a defined Laplacian matrix that is generated from affinities computation between adjacent pixels in an image. Results obtained by such approach ar...
متن کاملThe Effects of Bezoar on the Echis carinatus Snake Venom Poisoning in Mice
The Bezoar, a dense material found in the stomach of wild goat, is widely used against various diseases including snakebite in traditional medicine among the southeast tribes of Iran. This study was performed to evaluate the Bezoar effect on experimental mice receiving 2% and 10% concentrations of natural crude of Echis carinatus snake venom. Various doses of Bezoar (6, 50, 100 & 200 mg/kg/i....
متن کاملVideo Matting Using Multi-frame Nonlocal Matting Laplacian
We present an algorithm for extracting high quality temporally coherent alpha mattes of objects from a video. Our approach extends the conventional image matting approach, i.e. closed-form matting, to video by using multi-frame nonlocal matting Laplacian. Our multi-frame nonlocal matting Laplacian is defined over a nonlocal neighborhood in spatial temporal domain, and it solves the alpha mattes...
