Abstract Background This case report documents a rare variation of persistent median artery. Normally transient vessel present during embryologic development the limbs, artery typically regresses by eighth week life as radial and ulnar arteries predominate distal vascular supply hand. In subset adult population, this remains which most often ends in carpal tunnel or hand without significant dep...

Vector median filtering is a well known technique for reducing noise in color images. These filters are defined on the basis of a suitable distance or similarity measure, being the most common used the Euclidean and City-Block distances. In this paper, a Fuzzy Metric, in the sense of George and Veeramani (1994), is defined and applied to color image filtering by means of a new Vector Median Fil...

conclusions accordingly, laser therapy in our protocol seemed to affect some of the nerve growth parameters, mostly on motor rather than sensory fibers. results in the two -point discrimination- test, there was no significant difference between the two groups in the thumbs but a significant improvement was observed in the index finger of the lt group. improvement of muscular examinations such a...

in this study which was carried out in 1974 in the province of isphahan a total of 23,273 individuals in the cities, and 18,671 individuals in the villages of the same area were studied. results show that the median age in rural area is 16 and in urban area is 18 years. the birth rate in rural is 27.7 per thousand were as the same rate in urban area is 40.2 per thousand. similarly the general f...

lipofibromatous hamartoma (lfh) is an extremely rare benign tumor, which is characterized by an excessive infiltration of the epineurium and perineurium by fibroadipose tissues. a 27-year-old woman was diagnosed with left carpal tunnel syndrome (cts) due to (lfh) of the median nerve. lfh was diagnosed by mri and sonography; the characteristic ultrasonographic feature of lfh showed a good correl...

background: we aimed to extract the histogram features for text analysis and, to classify the types of bio medical waste (bmw) for garbage disposal and management. methods: the given bmw was preprocessed by using the median filtering technique that efficiently reduced the noise in the image. after that, the histogram features of the filtered image were extracted with the help of proposed modifi...
