A deep learning approach to 3D segmentation of brain vasculature [PDF]

, 2019
The segmentation of blood-vessels is an important preprocessing step for the quantitative analysis of brain vasculature. We approach the segmentation task for two-photon brain angiograms using a fully convolutional 3D deep neural network.Published ...

In-depth proteomics identifies a role for autophagy in controlling reactive oxygen species mediated endothelial permeability [PDF]

, 2016
Endothelial cells (ECs) form the inner layer of blood vessels and physically separate the blood from the surrounding tissue. To support tissues with nutrients and oxygen, the endothelial monolayer is semipermeable.

Neurenteric Cysts Found on the Outer Membrane of a Subdural Haematoma

Case Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2013
We report on a patient initially diagnosed with a chronic subdural haematoma that was resistant to treatment. After the second burr hole craniostomy within a half month failed to resolve the subdural haematoma (SDH), we performed a craniotomy to identify

Arrival time mapping with 15O-gas PET for cerebrovascular steno-occlusive diseases: a comparative study with CT perfusion

EJNMMI Research
Background Positron emission tomography (PET) with 15O-gas for quantifying cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygen metabolism is the gold standard for assessing hemodynamics in ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Inter-individual variability in the relationship between propulsion force and walking speed in subacute stroke

Scientific Reports
Walking speed is primarily driven by the propulsion force generated during the late stance phase, but the translation of propulsion force to walking speed may differ across individuals.

Establishing death in stranded Odontocetes (toothed whales) using other mammals : a pilot study : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Zoology at Massey University [PDF]

, 2003
The aim of this study was to investigate and evaluate a new method for determining death in stranded odontocetes (toothed whales). The new method was using the pulsations seen in the retinal blood vessels in the place of the heart rate. The retinal blood
