Quantification of Lung Abnormalities in Cystic Fibrosis using Deep Networks [PDF]

Proc. SPIE 10574, Medical Imaging 2018: Image Processing, 105741G (2 March 2018), 2018
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease which may appear in early life with structural abnormalities in lung tissues. We propose to detect these abnormalities using a texture classification approach. Our method is a cascade of two convolutional neural networks. The first network detects the presence of abnormal tissues.

An exceptional case of peritoneal cystic echinococcosis in a domestic cat in Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
A case of peritoneal cystic echinococcosis (CE) in a domestic cat was reported from Queensland, Australia. Physical examination of the cat indicated a large, distended abdomen, which when palpated appeared to be fluid‐filled. Ultrasonography showed numerous cysts with hyperechoic walls and anechoic contents within the cat's abdominal cavity.

Efficacy of Essential Oils of Thymus vulgaris and Origanum vulgare on Echinococcus granulosus [PDF]

, 2014
The aim of the present work was to determine the in vitro effect of T. vulgaris and O. vulgare essential oils against E. granulosus protoscoleces and cysts. Essential oils were added to the medium resulting in thymol final concentrations of 10 μg/mL. The

Primary Pelvic Cystic Echinococcosis

Turkish Journal of Parasitology, 2015
Cystic echinococcosis caused by Echinococcus granulosus is still an important health problem in endemic areas. Cystic echinococcosis may involve different organs or areas with the most common sites being the liver and the lungs. Pelvic involvement has previously been reported and was mainly accepted as secondary to cystic echinococcosis in other organs,

Past and present of cystic echinococcosis in Bolivia

PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2021
Viable eggs of the canine intestinal tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (s.l.) infect various intermediate hosts causing cystic echinococcosis (CE). Furthermore, CE represents a serious zoonosis causing a significant global burden of disease. CE is highly endemic in South America, including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, and Peru.
