introduction: transient cavitations induced by low frequency irradiation of ultrasound can be used to treat tumors. previous studies in in-vitro experiments have shown that induced cavitation by dual or multiple frequencies of ultrasound is greater than induced cavitation by single frequency irradiation. in this study, we compared and evaluated the treatment effects of dual frequency irradiatio...

OBJECTIVES Post-traumatic intramedullary myelopathies and cavitations are well described lesions following spinal cord injury (SCI) in humans and have been described in histopathological evaluations in dogs. Human intramedullary myelopathies/cavitations are associated with severe initial SCI and deterioration of clinical signs. Canine intervertebral disc extrusions share similarities with SCI i...

The differential diagnosis of lung cavitations is very broad. We report a case of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) with lung cavitations on the chest X-ray in a patient with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). We discuss the differential diagnosis of such an X-ray pattern and emphasize that multiple cavitations can be a roentgenographic presentation of PCP.

This paper investigates the effects of roughness and cavitations in microchannels on the electro-osmotic flow behaviors using the Lattice Poisson–Boltzmann methods which combined one lattice evolution method for solving the non-linear Poisson–Boltzmann equation for electric potential distribution with the other lattice evolution method for solving the Navier–Stokes equations for fluid flow. The...

Incipient cavitations identification is very practical and academic significance for cavity research in cooling pump of engine but it is very complicated. In this paper, a Hilbert-Huang transform(HHT) fuzzy wavelet neural network (FWNN) is proposed for incipient cavitations identification. The main incipient cavitations feature was extracted from entrance pressure fluctuation by the HHT. This F...

Eleven infants were encountered (nine premature, two term) in whom well-defined small periventricular cavitations were found by sonography in the first week of life. The sonographic findings bore remarkable similarity to subependymal pseudocysts in neonates previously described in autopsy specimens. The cavitations, which were identified predominantly along the superolateral aspects of the late...

Current weather indifferent fields of science and engineering research purposes and different applications are studied. One of the applications of climate studies, the study of the flow over the weir dam and lower exhaust tunnel is aimed at preventing the risk of cavitations. Aeration is known as one of the most economical and practical way to deal with cavitations on rapid spill ways. In the s...

OBJECTIVE There are no rules to predict the time to infectivity negative conversion based on sputum smear conversion or culture conversion during chemotherapy in smear-positive tuberculosis patients. We aimed to develop and validate rules of sputum smear grades and cavitations in the lungs due to tuberculosis. METHODS This study was a retrospective cohort study that consisted of development (...
