Convolutional neural networks for automatic detection of Focal Cortical Dysplasia [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is one of the most common epileptogenic lesions associated with cortical development malformations. However, the accurate detection of the FCD relies on the radiologist professionalism, and in many cases, the lesion could be missed.

Pamidronic acid and cabergoline as effective long-term therapy in a 12-year-old girl with extended facial polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, prolactinoma and acromegaly in McCune-Albright syndrome: a case report [PDF]
, 2012 Introduction McCune-Albright syndrome is a complex inborn disorder due to early embryonal postzygotic somatic activating mutations in the GNAS1 gene. The phenotype is very heterogeneous and includes polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, typically involving the ...

Fibrous dysplasia of bone: craniofacial and dental implications.
Oral Diseases, 2017 Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare bone disease caused by postzygotic somatic activating mutations in the GNAS gene, which lead to constitutive activation of adenylyl cyclase and elevated levels of cyclic AMP, which act on downstream signaling pathways and

Management of post‐implant fibrous dysplasia in the maxilla: A case study
Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Fibrous dysplasia is generally rare, and even rarer in older adults. Special care is needed when altering the alveolar bone in these cases, especially if an implant is involved. This case study highlights such a scenario. Methods This case study details the experience of a 63‐year‐old African American female who presented with a ...

Salvage Trans‐Sylvian Peri‐Insular Hemispherotomy After Embolic Hemispherectomy
Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Hemispherectomy and hemispherotomy represent well‐established treatments for drug‐resistant hemispheric epilepsy. An alternative endovascular procedure has been explored for cases with challenging surgical anatomy, which seeks to achieve the clinical effect of hemispherectomy via embolization of the major cerebral arteries and ...

Automated analysis of fibrous cap in intravascular optical coherence tomography images of coronary arteries [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) and plaque rupture have been recognized as the most frequent risk factor for thrombosis and acute coronary syndrome. Intravascular optical coherence tomography (IVOCT) can identify TCFA and assess cap thickness, which provides an opportunity to assess plaque vulnerability.

K-Ras and β-catenin mutations cooperate with Fgfr3 mutations in mice to promote tumorigenesis in the skin and lung, but not in the bladder [PDF]
, 2011 The human fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) gene is frequently mutated in superficial urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC). To test the functional significance of FGFR3 activating mutations as a ‘driver’ of UCC, we targeted the expression of mutated

Clinical and translational pharmacological aspects of the management of fibrous dysplasia of bone
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2018 Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a genetic, noninheritable rare bone disease caused by a postzygotic activating mutation of the α subunit of the stimulatory G‐protein causing increased abnormal bone formation leading to pain, deformity and fractures.
