Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsIntracranial Atherosclerotic Disease: Treatment Potential and Diagnostic OpportunitiesAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Victoria Alexandrovna Khotina, Anton Yuvenalievich Postnov et al.Atherosclerosis, characterized by the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques within large arteries, substantially increases the risk of cardiovascular events, including ischemic stroke. Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) represents a particularly significant clinical threat given its strong association with ischemic stroke across multiple intracranial arterial territories. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of intracranial atherosclerosis. Special attention … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 5 May 2026 · 1,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDIFFERENT CLINICAL AND ANGIOGRAPHIC FINDING IN A SET OF IRANIAN IDENTICAL TWIN: A CASE REPORTMohammad Shojaie, Mohammad Yasin Karami, Mahdi Karimyar Jahromi et al.Both genetic and environmental causes are involved in developing of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), but there is a notable controversy about the environmental and genetic factors that play a role in the pathogenesis of CAD. The value of each individual risk factor on CAD and the incidence of coronary artery disease in identical twins are indefinite. To find out genetic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 16 Sep 2013 · 7,181 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Multi Vessels Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Versus Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass GraftMohammed Farouk Abdel-Hafez, Ahmed El-Minshawy, Ahmed M. Taha et al.Traditional Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) is currently among of the chief methods in dealing with patients suffering from atherosclerotic coronary heart disease. The current study aimed to measure and compare the levels of proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress marker in patients who underwent multivessels Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (MICS– CABG) versus off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 29 Sep 2021 · 6,170 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractA Case of a Young Patient with Acute Endocarditis and Challenging Diagnostic and Treatment DecisionsPau Rello, Teresa González-Alujas, Laura Escolà-Vergé et al.Despite advances achieved in recent years, Infective Endocarditis (IE) remains a disease associated with high mortality and morbidity. When it involves multiple locations at the same time, deciding the best treatment can become challenging. In some cases, especially in patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis, a definitive diagnosis can be difficult to achieve and multimodality imaging including Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 9 Jun 2021 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractThe Diagnostic and Etiologic Challenge of Myocarditis in Oncologic Patients: Acute Myocarditis During Induction Treatment with All-Trans Retinoic AcidNúria Coma, Sergio Moral, Rosa Coll et al.Myocarditis is an inflammatory disease of the myocardium characterized by myocardial infiltration with inflammatory cells and non-ischemic myocytic necrosis. Its diagnosis is based on clinical, electrocardiogram, laboratory and echocardiographic parameters and also cardiac magnetic resonance or endomyocardial biopsy when possible. It occurs primarily as a result of infections that include viruses, parasites, bacteria and fungi. Moreover, there are other causes … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 7 Jun 2021 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA FAST AND ACCURATE METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC CORONARY ARTERIAL TREE EXTRACTION IN ANGIOGRAMSRohollah Moosavi Tayebi, Puteri Suhaiza Binti Sulaiman, Rahmita Wirza et al.Coronary arterial tree extraction in angiograms is an essential component of each cardiac image processing system. Once physicians decide to check up coronary arteries from x-ray angiograms, extraction must be done precisely, fast, automatically and including whole arterial tree to help diagnosis or treatment during the cardiac surgical operation. This application is very helpful for the surgeon on deciding the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 27 Jun 2014 · 8,296 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMEDICAL IMAGE SEGMENTATION FOR ANATOMICAL KNOWLEDGE EXTRACTIONMs Maya Eapen, Reeba KorahComputed Tomography-Angiography (CTA) images of the abdomen, followed by precise segmentation and subsequent computation of shape based features of liver play an important role in hepatic surgery, patient/donor diagnosis during liver transplantation and at various treatment stages. Nevertheless, the issues like intensity similarity and Partial Volume Effect (PVE) between the neighboring organs; left the task of liver segmentation critical.
