Hybrid Deep Neural Network for Brachial Plexus Nerve Segmentation in Ultrasound Images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia (UGRA) can replace general anesthesia (GA), improving pain control and recovery time. This method can be applied on the brachial plexus (BP) after clavicular surgeries. However, identification of the BP from ultrasound (US) images is difficult, even for trained professionals.

BRACHIAL PLEXUS INJURIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1987
In the last 10 years lesions of the brachial plexus have become increasingly common and advances in diagnosis and innovations in technique have necessarily occurred. Since 1977 over 1000 patients with lesions of the brachial plexus have been seen at St Mary's and The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospitals in London; this total excludes obstetric palsies ...

Human amniotic epithelial cell transplantation for the repair of injured brachial plexus nerve: evaluation of nerve viscoelastic properties

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
The transplantation of embryonic stem cells can effectively improve the creeping strength of nerves near an injury site in animals. Amniotic epithelial cells have similar biological properties as embryonic stem cells; therefore, we hypothesized that ...
