For 30 years after the introduction of broncho-graphy by Sicard and Forestier (1922) iodized oil remained the only contrast medium in general use. During this period a large amount of information was published about the radiographic appearance of the bronchi in most varieties of chronic pulmonary disease. The literature dealing with bronchography in pulmonary tuberculosis is scanty by compariso...

Hand movement classification based on Electromyo-graphy (EMG) signals has been extensively investigated in the past decades as a promising approach used for controlling upper prosthetics or robotics. Topological data analysis is relatively new and increasingly popular tool science that uses mathematical techniques from topology to analyze understand complex sets. This paper proposes method clas...

graphy, absorption spectrum, and by absorbancy changes after being reacted with potassium cyanide and with yeast alcohol dehydrogenase. DPN excretion in urine in some other PMD cases was evidenced by the alcohol dehydrogenase method. Numerous urine specimens from normal and diseased individuals were also examined for DPN, but urinary DPN could be demonstrated in no case other than those of PMD....

Neonatal hydrocolpos is a rare condition that involves fluid accumulation in the vagina. On diagnostic imaging, the dilated vagina, along with the compressed uterus, can simulate a mature cystic teratoma with a mural nodule. Herein, we report the case of a newborn girl with congenital hydrocolpos that was caused by an imperforate hymen; the hydrocolpos mimicking a mature cystic teratoma on abdo...

Lung abcess is a rarely identified suppurative infection that has air-liquid level bigger 2 cm diameter on pulmonary graphy. It should especially be considered in the case of treatment-refractory pneumonic infections of persons with chronic diseases. In order to point out to the importance of this issue, this study presents a case of pulmonary abcess identified in a patient who was followed up ...

Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) is one of the most common pathogens to cause liver abscess. Because K. pneumoniae is highly virulent, it may cause embolic complications. The rate of metastatic infection has a range of 3.5% to 20%. Thus, a diagnostic work-up for metastatic complications should be employed in K. pneumoniae liver abscess cases, including chest radiography and computed tomo g...

Chylous ascites is a clinical entity characterized by accumulation of milky fluid containing high amounts of triglycerides in the peritoneal cavity. The cause is usually lymphatic obstruction secondary to neoplastic processes. Constrictive pericarditis rarely causes cylous ascites through elevated venous pressure and lymphatic stasis. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report of constric...
