3-D Registration on Carotid Artery imaging data: MRI for different timesteps [PDF]
2016 38th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering
in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2016 A common problem which is faced by the researchers when dealing with arterial carotid imaging data is the registration of the geometrical structures between different imaging modalities or different timesteps. The use of the "Patient Position" DICOM field is not adequate to achieve accurate results due to the fact that the carotid artery is a ...

Oxygen sensing by the carotid body: mechanisms and role in adaptation to hypoxia.
American Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 2016 Oxygen (O2) is fundamental for cell and whole-body homeostasis. Our understanding of the adaptive processes that take place in response to a lack of O2(hypoxia) has progressed significantly in recent years.

Fine-needle aspiration cytology diagnosis of paraganglioma (carotid body tumor)
Journal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2015 A case of carotid body tumor was diagnosed based on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in 22-year-old female who presented with a mass in the right lower cervical region. Provisional diagnosis was made as metastatic deposits.

Our experience in managing carotid body tumors in tertiary care center
Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2023 Introduction: Carotid body tumors (CBTs), also known as paragangliomas or chemodectomas, are rare neuroendocrine neoplasms that arise near the carotid bifurcation within glomus cells derived from the embryonic neural crest. The reported incidence of CBTs

Multiple paragangliomas involving carotid body and vagal region
Formosan Journal of Surgery, 2019 Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors also known to occur in the head-and-neck regions and generally involve the carotid body or vagal region. Till date, only a single study has reported the occurrence of paragangliomas involving both the carotid

Carotid body chemoreceptors, sympathetic neural activation, and cardiometabolic disease
Biological Research, 2016 The carotid body (CB) is the main peripheral chemoreceptor that senses the arterial PO2, PCO2 and pH. In response to hypoxemia, hypercapnia and acidosis, carotid chemosensory discharge elicits reflex respiratory, autonomic and cardiovascular adjustments.

Visualizing Carotid Blood Flow Simulations for Stroke Prevention [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 In this work, we investigate how concepts from medical flow visualization can be applied to enhance stroke prevention diagnostics. Our focus lies on carotid stenoses, i.e., local narrowings of the major brain-supplying arteries, which are a frequent cause of stroke.

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐
