OBJECTIVE To evaluate the contribution of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of neurilemmoma and to establish if a round or round-like shape adds useful information for ultrasonographic diagnosis. METHODS Archives of ultrasound findings in 203 patients (127 males and 76 females, aged 14 -72 years old, mean 32.1 +/- 25.8) with limb mass were reviewed. The maximal and minimal diameter of the lesi...

This paper presents a microstrip antenna using CPW-fed heptagonal shaped antenna embedded with triangular shaped slots for WLAN/WIMAX applications. The proposed antenna provides an impedance bandwidth of 3.08 GHz. The antenna exhibits dual frequency bands 3.4 GHz to 6.48 GHz, covering WLAN and WiMAX bands. The parametric study is performed to understand the characteristics of the proposed anten...

Root canal systems often have complex anatomy and pose various challenges to every clinician. Research into the morphology of the pulp has revealed that the dental pulp takes many intricate shapes and configurations before reaching the tooth apex like gradual curve, sickle-shaped curve, severe-moderate-straight curve, apical curve, bayonet / S-shaped curve and dilacerated curve, canals emerging...

Cognitive science has been shaped by analytic philosophy and the computer metaphor, which has led to the dominance of such themes and notions as rationality, language, representation, functionalism, and computation. I would like to make a case for a cognitive science which lets itself be shaped by a phenomenological philosophy and biology. Central notions then become: experience, embodiment, et...

micromixers are one of the most crucial components of lab-on-a-chip devices with the intention of mixing and dispersion of reagents like small molecules and particles. the challenge facing micromixers is typically insufficient mixing efficiency in basic designs, which results in longer microchannels. therefore, it is desirable to increase mixing efficiency, in order to decrease mixing length, w...

objective(s): throughout evolution, mammalians have increasingly lost their ability to regenerate structures however rabbits are exceptional since they develop a blastema in their ear wound for regeneration purposes. blastema consists of a group of undifferentiated cells capable of dividing and differentiating into the ear tissue. the objective of the present study is to isolate, culture expand...

purpose: to report the clinical, histopathologic, microbiologic and confocal microscopic features of candida keratitis after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (dalk). patients and findings: the first patient presented with asymptomatic white to cream-colored interface deposits two months after dalk. confocal scan disclosed clusters of hyper-reflective fine granular deposits in the interface w...

We experienced rare combination of multiple irregular shaped aneurysms along the course of the feeding artery and arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the posterior circulation. We could not explain which aneurysm was a cause of bleeding because all the aneurysms showed irregular in shape like pseudoaneurysms and location of the aneurysms was very close each other. We report two cases in which m...
