Objective: To assess the performance of morphometric parameters calculated from breast lesion contours at ultrasonography, in the quantification of morphological features and in the distinction among BI-RADS categories 2, 3, 4 and 5. Materials and Methods: The present casuistry included 40 cases, with orthogonal imaging of patients submitted to surgery. Based on the lesions segmentation, the fo...

The aim of the study was to compare morphometric characteristics of different types and grades of breast cancer. Morphometric analysis was performed using the SFORM software (Vamstec, Zagreb) on the May-Grünwald-Giemsa stained fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) breast tissue specimens. The study included 42 patients diagnosed with breast carcinoma by breast smear FNAC at Merkur University H...

The management of stand structure and the protection species diversity are crucial to forest ecosystem service functions. Changbai Mountain is one three major regions in Northeast China, understanding characteristics allometric relationship between variables correlation factors basis for achieving effective ecological function improvement. In this study, typical deciduous broad-leaved mixed con...

We determined the effect of caponization on the carcass and giblet characteristics, and skin and muscle color in Taiwan country chicken cockerels. Caponized birds were surgically altered at 10 weeks old and were fed growing and finishing diets ad libitum during an eighteen-week experimental period. The results showed that the percentage of dressing, heart, feet, thigh, head and neck were signif...

Microwave breast cancer detection is based on the dielectric contrast between healthy and malignant tissue. This radar-based imaging method involves illumination of the breast with an ultra-wideband pulse. Detection of tumors within the breast is achieved by some selected focusing technique. Image formation algorithms are tailored to enhance tumor responses and reduce early-time and late-time c...

Objective: The main objective of this study was to analyze the differences in ipsilateral and contralateral internal mammary artery (IMA) and lateral thoracic artery (LTA) width in patients with malignant and benign breast tumor. Materials and Methods: A total of 104 female patients, of which 41 had benign and 63 had malignant tumors, were included in the study. The diameters of the IMA and LTA...

Background-The pattern of growth of the uterus was examined by ultrasound examinations of 358 girls who attended a paediatric endocrine outpatient department but were shown not to have any endocrine defect. Method-The uterus was measured in length and width at the cervix and at the fundus (cm). Endometrial thickness was measured (mm). Scans were divided by Tanner breast stage and the dimensions...

objective: to assess the level of awareness on breast cancer among women of reproductive age. materials and methods: a cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in opd of dhaka medical college hospital among the 175 respondents by face to face interview using pretested semi structured questionnaire. results: one forth (23%) aged 21-25 years, mostly muslim (86.3%), housewives (72.57%), had...

Kolmogorov argued that the concept of information exists also in problems with no underlying stochastic model (as Shannon’s information representation) for instance, the information contained in an algorithm or in the genome. He introduced a combinatorial notion of entropy and information I(x : y) conveyed by a binary string x about the unknown value of a variable y. The current paper poses the...
