We describe a powerful imaging modality for terahertz (THz) radiation, THz wide aperture reflection tomography (WART). Edge maps of an object's cross section are reconstructed from a series of time-domain reflection measurements at different viewing angles. Each measurement corresponds to a parallel line projection of the object's cross section. The filtered backprojection algorithm is applied ...

BACKGROUND The BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib is state of the art in therapy of patients with malignant melanoma in non-resectable stage III or stage IV and evidence of oncogenetic BRAF mutation. Multiple cutaneous side effects like rash and keratoacanthoma-like lesions have been described so far. CASE REPORT We report a patient who presented multiple wart-like lesions under therapy with vemurafe...

Abstract Wart is a disease caused by human papillomavirus with common and plantar warts as general forms. Commonly used methods to treat are immunotherapy cryotherapy. The selection of proper treatment vital cure warts. This paper establishes classification regression tree (CART) model based on particle swarm optimisation help patients choose between proposed can accurately predict the response...

Background: Cutaneous warts are common viral skin lesions caused by human papillomavirus that can be challenging to treat and frustrating for physicians and patients. Although several treatment options exist, there is no single treatment that can ensure a complete response with lack of lesion recurrence. Immunotherapies for recalcitrant warts present as a cost-effective, efficient therapy optio...

Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) is triggered by a variety of mechanisms that at least partly include genetic background. We present a Brazilian man with a 30-year history of flat, wart-like lesions with clinical, histopathological, and evolutive aspects consistent with papillomavirus (HPV)-associated EV. Histological analysis of the wart lesions showed epidermis with hyperkeratosis, regula...
