background: magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is the standard method for observing brain plaques and contrast material injection is necessary for demonstrating the active plaque.this study compared the rate of enhancement of plaques with gadovist and magnevist in relapse phase of ms. methods: in this double blind study, after neurological examination of 62 patients in the attack phase of ms, two...

The removal of diclofenac sodium ophthalmic solution as a viable pharmaceutical entity in September 1999 from the US market spurred considerable interest in the general safety and effectiveness of topical ophthalmic NSAIDs for treatment of anterior segment inflammation. In late 1999 the use of topical ocular NSAIDs declined in the US as a result of incidents involving corneal melts and toxicity...

we presents an infant with several indurated plaques and nodules scattered on her body. she was brought to the hospital because of fever, runny nose and cough from one month ago. during the examination and investigation the plaques and nodules grabbed the attention of the clinicians and the skin biopsy and other lab works revealed the diagnosis of congenital leukemia.

the aim of this study is to formulate a novel ophthalmic nanosuspension (ons), an alternative carrier system to traditional colloidal carriers for controlled release (cr) of acyclovir (acv). in the present study, ons is employed to avoid some of major disadvantages of colloidal carriers systems such as instability in cul de sac and short half life by increasing efficiency of drug encapsulation ...

Aim—To examine how tumour location aVects ocular morbidity after ophthalmic plaque radiotherapy for uveal melanoma. Methods—69 eyes were irradiated and followed for a mean 42 months. There were 23 anterior uveal melanomas and 46 were posterior to the equator. Anterior and posterior tumours had similar basal dimensions. Their mean apical heights were 4.8 mm (anterior) and 3.5 mm (posterior) whic...

purpose: to compare ophthalmic artery velocity in eyes with nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (naion) with that of normal fellow eyes. methods: in this case-control study, 20 patients with unilateral naion and disease onset less than 8 weeks, were enrolled. using color doppler imaging, mean, maximum systolic and end diastolic ophthalmic artery velocities were evaluated. the result...
