Background: One of the minor obstitrical procedures is dilation and curettage; pain usually occurs during it. Consequently, an anesthetic drug desires sufficient analgesia, brisk onset, recovery.
 Objective: To evaluate two groups combinations {midazolam 0.08mg/kg – ketamine (0.5mg/kg)} propofol with (1mg/kg) –fentanyl dose (1mcg /kg)}, in hemodynamic parameters, scoring recovery character...

With the rapid progress of CT (Computed Tomography) scanners, four-phase CT images with resolutions as high as 1 mm have started to be used for diagnosing liver diseases. The first-, second-, third-, and fourth-phase CT images correspond to before dye injection, the early stage, the full stage, and the wash-out stage of the injected dye. Such CT data offer useful information for diagnosing hepa...

among the therapeutic options for achalasia are pneumatic dilatation (pd), an appropriate long-term therapy, and botulinum toxin injection (bt) that is a relatively short-term therapy. this study aimed to compare therapeutic effect of repetitive pneumatic dilation with a combined method (botulinum toxin injection and pneumatic dilation) in a group of achalasia patients who are low responder to ...

the objective of this paper is to establish a complete characterization of multiwavelet packets associated with matrix dilation on general lattices $gamma$ in $mathbb r^d$ by virtue of time-frequency analysis, matrix theory and operator theory.

BACKGROUND Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA-IVS) is a rare congenital lesion with high mortality. Therapy was exclusively surgical until recently, when the use of radiofrequency-assisted perforation of the atretic valve was introduced as a treatment option. This study analyzes the outcomes and morphological changes to right heart structures after percutaneous perforation and...

Background: Volume estimation of brain is important for many neurological applications. It is necessary in measuring brain growth and changes in brain in normal/abnormal patients. Thus, accurate brain volume measurement is very important. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the method of choice for volume quantification due to excellent levels of image resolution and between-tissue contrast. St...

OBJECTIVE After the arterial switch operation (ASO), disproportional neo-aortic growth during childhood has been reported. Even though it has been suggested neo-aortic dilation will stabilise in adulthood, data are lacking. The aim of this study was to assess the change in neo-aortic dimensions, prevalence of neo-aortic dilation >40 mm and long-term outcome in adults who underwent ASO in childh...
