Pelvic osteomyelitis in children
(2010)Pelvic osteomyelitis is a rare disease that presents like many other common paediatric orthopaedic conditions. The diagnosis and management of the disease is often delayed and as a consequence this may contribute to increased ...

Polymeric theranostics: Using polymer-based systems for simultaneous imaging and therapy
(2013)Polymer-based nanomedicine is a large and fast growing field. Polymer-based systems have been extensively used as therapeutic carriers as well as bioimaging agents for example in tumour diagnosis. However, fewer polymeric ...

Quantitative analysis of brain white matter lesions in multiple sclerosis subjects
(2009)In this study the value of magnetic resonance image (MRI) shape and texture analysis was assessed in multiple sclerosis (MS) subjects, both in differentiating between normal or normal appearing and abnormal tissue and in ...

Quantitative analysis of brain white matter lesions in multiple sclerosis subjects: Preliminary findings
(2008)In this study the value of magnetic resonance image (MRI) shape and texture analysis was assessed in multiple sclerosis (MS) subjects, both in differentiating between normal and abnormal tissue and in assessing disease ...

Renal cell carcinoma in pregnancy: A rare coexistence
(2014)Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is rarely diagnosed during pregnancy and its management represents a real challenge. As the symptomatology might mimic other common pregnancy-related disorders, the diagnosis is often delayed. ...

Stress-mediated progression of solid tumors: effect of mechanical stress on tissue oxygenation, cancer cell proliferation, and drug delivery
(2015)Oxygen supply plays a central role in cancer cell proliferation. While vascular density increases at the early stages of carcinogenesis, mechanical solid stresses developed during growth compress tumor blood vessels and, ...

Texture image analysis of normal appearing white matter areas in Clinically Isolated Syndrome that evolved in demyelinating lesions in subsequent MRI scans: Multiple sclerosis disease evolution
(2010)The purpose of this paper is to explore the use of texture features analysis for evaluating normal appearing white matter (NA WM) areas in brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans of patients with a first demyelinating ...
