OBJECTIVES To describe the imaging features of the central airway pathology, correlating the findings with those in pathology and virtual endoscopy. To propose a schematic and practical approach to reach diagnoses, placing strong emphasis on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) findings. METHODS We reviewed our thoracic pathology database and the central airway pathology-related literatur...

OBJECTIVES Several medical and dental schools have described their experience in the transition from conventional to digital microscopy in the teaching of general pathology and histology disciplines; however, this transitional process has scarcely been reported in the teaching of oral pathology. Therefore, the objective of the current study is to report the transition from conventional glass sl...

Nine cases of carotid body tumor chemiodectomas in seven Patients are presented and diagnostic and therapeutic problems discussed Similar to other reports, many cases undergo operative exploration without correct preoper.ativ.e diagnosis or ability of the surgeon to handle such lesions. The most important factor for correct diagndsis is including carotid body in differential diagnosis of latera...

Recent developments in AI have provided assisting tools to support pathologists’ diagnoses. However, it remains challenging incorporate such into practice; one main concern is AI’s insufficient workflow integration with medical decisions. We observed examination and discovered that the hindering factor integrate its incompatibility workflow. To bridge gap between pathologists AI, we developed a...

An avalanche survival curve is a graphical illustration of survival probability during complete avalanche burial as a function of time. The purpose of calculating these curves is not only to illustrate that survival is time-dependent, but to deduce practical information from the course of the curve. The step-wise decrease of survival over time was first recognized in the original curve in 1994 ...
