Peristaltic flow of a fluid in a porous channel: A study having relevance to flow of bile within ducts in a pathological state [PDF]
International Journal of Engineering Science (IJES), Volume: 49,
Issue: 9(2011) pp. 950-966, 2011 The paper deals with a theoretical study of the transport of a fluid in a channel, which takes place by the phenomenon of peristalsis. A mathematical analysis of the said problem has been presented. The analysis involves the application of a suitable perturbation technique. The velocity profile and the critical pressure for the occurrence of reflux are

Double common bile duct associated with pancreaticobiliary maljunction [PDF]
, 2021 A 45-year-old female was admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. A computed tomography scan showed two extrahepatic bile ducts. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography sug- gested a stone in one of the bile ducts.

An Interactive Automation for Human Biliary Tree Diagnosis Using Computer Vision [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The biliary tree is a network of tubes that connects the liver to the gallbladder, an organ right beneath it. The bile duct is the major tube in the biliary tree. The dilatation of a bile duct is a key indicator for more major problems in the human body, such as stones and tumors, which are frequently caused by the pancreas or the papilla of vater. The

Automated Assessment of Critical View of Safety in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) is one of the most common procedures in the US, with more than 1.2M procedures annually. Compared with classical open cholecystectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is associated with significantly shorter recovery period, and hence is the preferred method.
