Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRadiation-Induced Cognitive Dysfunction After Different Schemes of Fractionated Whole Brain IrradiationZorkina Yana Alexandrovna, Zubkov Eugene Andreevich, Yusubalieva Gaukhar Maratovna et al.Radiation-induced cognitive dysfunction is a serious complication of radiation therapy. In humans, numerous cases of radiation damage have been recorded after irradiation for therapeutic purposes. The degree of cognitive dysfunctions and its dependence on biological effective doses should be tested in animal preclinical models to minimize radiation side effects. Fractionated whole brain irradiation was performed according to the following schemes: … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 14 Jan 2015 · 7,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Exercise Prior or After Ischemia on the Density of Neurons and Astrocytes in the Brain of RatsLaila Cristina Moreira Damázio, Raphael Teixeira Rocha Melo, Maira de Castro Lima et al.The aim of this study was to analyse the density of astrocytes and neurons in the motor areas of the cortex, striatum and hippocampus of rats that performed exercise before or after cerebral ischemia. A total of 36 Wistar rats were separated into two groups: One that was subjected to Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (MCAO) and the other that underwent … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 14 Jan 2015 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBRAIN TUMOR CLASSIFICATION BASED ON CLUSTERED DISCRETE COSINE TRANSFORM IN COMPRESSED DOMAINV. Anitha, S. MurugavalliThis study presents a novel method to classify the brain tumors by means of efficient and integrated methods so as to increase the classification accuracy. In conventional systems, the problem being the same to extract the feature sets from the database and classify tumors based on the features sets. The main idea in plethora of earlier researches related to any … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 May 2014 · 7,532 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF BRAIN TUMOR DIAGNOSIS BASED ON SOFT COMPUTING TECHNIQUESP. Shantha Kumar, P. Ganesh KumarComputed tomography images are widely used in the diagnosis of brain tumor because of its faster processing, avoiding malfunctions and suitability with physician and radiologist. This study proposes a new approach to automated detection of brain tumor. This proposed work consists of various stages in their diagnosis processing such as preprocessing, anisotropic diffusion, feature extraction and classification. The local binary … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Dec 2013 · 6,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWavelet Statistical Texture Features with Orthogonal Operators Tumour Classification in Magnetic Resonance Imaging BrainR. Meenakshi, P. AnandhakumarTumors medically also called neoplasms are an abnormal mass of tissue resulting from uncontrolled proliferation or division of cells occurring in the human body. If such growth is located in the brain then it is called as brain tumor. Identification of such tumors is a major challenge in the field of medical science. Early identification of tumors prove to be … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMEDICAL IMAGE COMPRESSION TECHNIQUE USING LISTLESS SET PARTITIONING IN HIERARCHICAL TREES AND CONTEXTUAL VECTOR QUANTIZATION FOR BRAIN IMAGESS. Sridevi, V. R. VijayakumarA hybrid image compression techniques has been developed to compress medical images. Due to the extensive use of medical images like CT and MR scan, these medical imagery are stored for a longer period for the continuous monitoring of the patients and the amount of data associated with images is large and it occupies enormous storage capacity. So, the medical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCoscinium Fenestratum Protects Against Ethanol-Induced Neurodegeneration in Adult Rat BrainWathita Phachonpai, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Panakaporn Wannanon et al.Alcoholism is a serious problem throughout the world. Despite intensive efforts to develop novel therapeutics for strategy efficacy against neuronal loss leading to memory impairment in alcoholism is still limited. In view of the pitfalls of psychological dependence and adverse behavioral effects of synthetic drugs, the development of low toxicity and high efficiency medicines derived from natural herbal antioxidants exhibits … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 16 Aug 2012 · 8,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Dietary Kaempferia parviflora on Ischemic Brain Injury in the ratWathita Phachonpai, Sinthuporn Maharun, Supaporn Muchimapura et al.Problem statement: Stroke often causes irreversible neuronal damage and related behavioral deficits. The lack of effective and widely applicable pharmacological treatments for ischemic stroke patients may explain a growing interest in traditional plant medicines. We investigated the ability of consuming Kaempferia parviflora extract, a Thai medicinal plant reputed for neuroprotective effects against brain damage, reduced infarct volume and improve neurological … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2012 · 9,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFluctuation of Brain Tissue Oxygen Partial Pressure: A Biochemical Landmark in the Arctic Ground Squirrel's Spontaneous ArousalYi Long Ma, Shu Fen Wu, Lawrence K. DuffyHibernation in the Arctic ground Squirrel (AGS) is a regulated, adaptive response to arctic environmental conditions. Problem statement: Regional brain Blood Flow (rCBF) has been observed to increase dramatically during arousal in hibernators. However, the real time dynamic change in PtO2 during arousal has not been studied, we hypothesized that PtO2 is Interdependent of Tbrain and a key component in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2012 · 7,601 accessesView PDFCite
