Development and External Validation of an Efficient Deep Learning Model for Lesion Segmentation and Subtyping of Hepatic Echinococcosis in Ultrasound Imaging

Health Care Science, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 284-298, August 2026.
We developed a lightweight deep learning framework that integrates frequency‐ and spatial‐domain ultrasound features with segmentation‐assisted classification for hepatic echinococcosis diagnosis. The model outperformed existing state‐of‐the‐art methods in both accuracy and inference speed while requiring substantially fewer computational resources ...

Perianal Abscess as a Rare Manifestation of Hydatid Disease: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary pelvic involvement has been reported in < 2% of cases of hydatid cysts, and perianal involvement is infrequent. We report a case of hydatid cyst primary involvement in the perianal region, which is unique in its presentation as a perianal abscess.

Fasciola hepatica coinfection modifies the morphological and immunological features of Echinococcus granulosus cysts in cattle

Veterinary Research, 2020
Polyparasitism occurs when animals harbour multiple parasites concomitantly. It is a common occurrence but is generally understudied in wild and domestic animals. Fasciola hepatica and Echinococcus granulosus, which are helminths of ungulates, frequently

Future Projection of Cystic Echinococcosis in Iran to 2040: A Secondary Analysis Based on Global Burden of Disease (2021)

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hydatid cyst disease caused by Echinococcus granulosus poses a major zoonotic threat in Iran, especially in rural and pastoral areas. It causes considerable public health and economic costs due to high treatment expenses, decreased livestock productivity, and carcass condemnation. Methods We applied the illness‐death model (

In Vitro Antiparasitic Effects of Silver Nanoparticles on Sarcocystis Bradyzoites

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
In vitro, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit dose and time‐dependent antiparasitic activity against Sarcocystis bradyzoites from sheep, achieving up to 59.53% mortality at 800 µg/mL after 120 min. These results suggest AgNPs may be a potential alternative to traditional drugs, meriting further in vivo investigation for veterinary use.
