Brain tumors induced in rats by human adenovirus type 12 [PDF]
Oncogenesis of human adenovirus type 12 in the brain of rats was examined. Newborn rats of Sprague-Dawley and Donryu strains were injected intracranially with human adenovirus type 12. The incidence of intracranial tumors was 91% (30/33) in

Automatic Segmentation of Choroid Layer in EDI OCT Images Using Graph Theory in Neutrosophic Space [PDF]
The choroid is vascular tissue located underneath the retina and supplies oxygen to the outer retina; any damage to this tissue can be a precursor to retinal disease. Choroid is almost invisible in Enhanced Depth Imaging Optical Coherence Tomography (EDI-OCT) images and it is hard for an ophthalmologist to detect this layer manually.

New experimental model of acute aqueductal blockage in cats: effects on cerebrospinal fluid pressure and the size of brain ventricles [PDF]
It is generally assumed that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is secreted in the brain ventricles, and so after an acute blockage of the aqueduct of Sylvius an increase in the ventricular CSF pressure and dilation of isolated ventricles may be expected. We have

Urothelial bladder carcinoma metastasizing to the eye: a systematic review and case report [PDF]
The eye is a rare site for disseminated malignancies; nevertheless, several tumors may metastasize to ocular structures. Few cases of urothelial and bladder cancer with eye involvement have been described in the literature thus far.

Quantitative and Qualitative Evaluation of Explainable Deep Learning Methods for Ophthalmic Diagnosis [PDF]
Background: The lack of explanations for the decisions made by algorithms such as deep learning has hampered their acceptance by the clinical community despite highly accurate results on multiple problems. Recently, attribution methods have emerged for explaining deep learning models, and they have been tested on medical imaging problems.
