although hydatid disease eradicated in many countries, it is still widespread in communities where agriculture is dominant. cystic hydatidosis is significant public health problem in the regions with endemic echinococcosis. the hydatid cysts tend to form mostly in the liver or lung. brain involvement is very rare. in the present report, we describe magnetic resonance imaging findings in an 18-y...

Abstract Background Iron overload is the main transfusion related side effects in patients with transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathies. Severe iron deposition in tissues leads to organ dysfunction. Many organs can be affected such as heart, liver, and endocrine organs. Cardiac failure and liver fibrosis are the consequent of Iron overload in transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathy. Magne...

Introduction Radiofrequency planar microcoils are used to increase the resolution of magnetic resonance images of small samples. In this study, we aimed to design and fabricate a spiral planar microcoil constructed on a double-sided printed circuit board (PCB). It has four rings with an internal diameter of 241 microns tuned and matched at 63.8 MHz. Materials and Methods To achieve the maximum ...

two dogs with generalized seizures were evaluated. the dogs were diagnosed with traumatic intracranial hemorrhages based on the history, neurological examinations, and magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of the brain. treatment was started with oxygen, prednisolone and anticonvulsant agents. no further seizure activity was observed after treatment in both dogs, however cushing reflex was detected ...

background: there are conficting reports regarding the association between coronary artery disease (cad) and mild cognitive  impairment (mci). volumetric magnetic resonance imaging (mri) investigations have been considered as an objective biomarker for  mci. in this study, we determined the relationship between the regional brain volumes and the extent of cad in mci patients and  cognitively no...

isolated third nerve palsy develops in numerous intracranial pathologies such as closed head trauma, tumor, and aneurysm. this report describes a 61 years old female with an abrasion on the left forehead and ptosis of the left eye. initial computed tomography did not reveal any causative cerebral and vascular lesions or orbital and cranial fractures. high-resolution and multi-axial enhanced mag...

conclusions a clinical examination combined with a plain radiograph should be considered to improve the diagnostic precision for patients presenting with scaphoid fractures in an emergency department. in this way, both overtreatment and undertreatment of patients can be avoided. results scaphoid tubercle tenderness had a sensitivity of 95.23% and a specificity of 74.07% in the diagnosis of scap...
