Aim: To evaluate the effect of preoperative Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) parameters on macular hole surgery (MHS) and their predictive value for postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA).
 Materials Methods: This retrospective study included 30 eyes patients with (MH). All underwent pars plana 23-gauge vitrectomy. A detailed analysis including MH minimum di...

During an image-guided neurosurgery procedure, the neuronavigation system is subject to inaccuracy because of anatomical deformations which induce a gap between the preoperative images and their anatomical reality. Thus, the objective of many research teams is to succeed in quantifying these deformations in order to update preoperative images. Anatomical intraoperative deformations correspond t...

Dendroclimatic proxies can be generated from the analysis of wood cellular structures, allowing for a more complete understanding of the physiological mechanisms that control the climatic response of tree species. Century-long (1870-2013) time series of anatomical parameters were developed for Great Basin bristlecone pine (Pinus longaeva D.K. Bailey) by capturing strongly contrasted microscopic...

conclusions this study did not show that distal radius anatomical indices including the radial height, radial inclination, ulnar variance and volar tilt influence perilunate fracture dislocation as risk factors. background distal radius radiographic indices may play a role as risk factors in pathogenesis of kienbock’s disease, scaphoid fracture and non:union:. perilunate fracture dislocations a...

introduction: unstained formalin-fixed whole brain specimens and brain slices do not give satisfactory results for teaching neuroanatomy. in addition, difficulties in obtaining human brains for dissection have increased the demand for more durable brain specimens that have been obtained by the plastination technique. in the present study brain specimens were sliced, fixed and stained using the ...
