background: initial studies have shown that low-energy ultrasound stimulates living tissue cells to reduce regeneration or speed up their recovery. the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of various ultrasound parameters on the speed of recovery in injured sciatic nerves. methods: nmri mice (n = 200) with injured left paw, caused by crushing their sciatic nerves, were randomly sele...

Introduction: Light-driven cancer therapy strategies (e.g. photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy) have undergone remarkable progress in recent years, but they still suffer from a serious drawback of limited penetration depth of light in tissue. As a non-invasive and non- ionizing radiation, ultrasound can be focused remotely, transferring acoustic energy deep in the bo...

o bjectives: to evaluate the accuracy of sonography in diagnosing acute appendicitis in patients with alvarado score 4–7. m e thods: this is a retrospective cross-sectional study being performed in namazee hospital affiliated with shiraz university of medical sciences during a one year period from 9/2007 to 9/2008. we evaluated all patients with alvarado score 4-7 and divided them in two groups...

the synthesis of aryl amides via the reactions of carboxylic acids and isocyanides in methanol was carried out in 78-95% yields under ultrasound irradiation. the method has wide applicability, and the protocol is mild, fast and efficient compared to the existing methods based on silent conditions.

neonatal ovarian cysts (noc) are usually self-limiting structures, however, large or complex cysts may lead to severe complications. unfortunately, no standard guidelines have been introduced for the management, treatment and follow-up of these cysts. in this report, we aimed to introduce a very large noc without any pre- and post-natal complications. a 30 year-old mother, gravida 2, para 2, wi...

introduction: the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the dissolving efficacy of eucalyptol and orange oil solvents associated with passive ultrasonic activation (pua) in zinc oxide-eugenol (zoe) based and epoxy resin-based root canal sealers. methods and materials: seventy samples of each sealer were prepared and then randomized according to the solvent and the time of the ultrasonic ac...

the evaluate the diagnostic value of image guided fine needle aspiration (fna) in breast lesions, the cytologic results of 401 patients were studied. all patients had either unpalpable masses or lesions who were hardly possible to localize by palpation and fna was performed by single radiologist under ultrasound guide in all cases. the cytologic results were divided into four categories (inconc...

background evaluation of the cerebellum and vermis is one of the integral parts of the fetal cranial anomaly screening. objectives the aim of this study was to create a nomogram for fetal vermis measurements between 17 and 30 gestational weeks. patients and methods this prospective study was conducted on 171 volunteer pregnant women between march 2013 and december 2014. measurements of the feta...

some amide derivatives have been synthesized by the reaction of corresponding nitriles with potassium tert-butoxide as a nucleophilic oxygen source under ultrasonic irradiation. this new methodology provides good to excellent yields in short reaction times (15-90 min) at room temperature.
