Fetal cerebral ventriculomegaly: What do we tell the prospective parents?
Abstract Fetal cerebral ventriculomegaly is a relatively common finding, observed during approximately 1% of obstetric ultrasounds. In the second and third trimester, mild (≥10 mm) and severe ventriculomegaly (≥15 mm) are defined according to the measurement of distal lateral ventricles that is included in the routine sonographic examination of central

A Comparative Analysis of Thermal Flow Sensing in Biomedical Applications [PDF]
Flow sensors have diverse applications in the field of biomedical engineering and also in industries. Micromachining of flow sensors has accomplished a new goal when it comes to miniaturization. Due to the scaling in dimensions, power consumption, mass cost, sensitivity and integration with other modules such as wireless telemetry has improvised to a ...

Aquaporin-4 and brain edema. [PDF]
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a water-channel protein expressed strongly in the brain, predominantly in astrocyte foot processes at the borders between the brain parenchyma and major fluid compartments, including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood.

CSF dynamics are vital for neurological health. Yet accurate quantification of CSF rates is challenging. Using a novel technique in awake, freely moving rats, significantly higher secretion rates are found than in anesthetized rats. The findings highlight the importance of awake models and the adaptability of methods for studying CSF changes influenced

Robust Brain Magnetic Resonance Image Segmentation for Hydrocephalus Patients: Hard and Soft Attention [PDF]
Brain magnetic resonance (MR) segmentation for hydrocephalus patients is considered as a challenging work. Encoding the variation of the brain anatomical structures from different individuals cannot be easily achieved. The task becomes even more difficult especially when the image data from hydrocephalus patients are considered, which often have large ...

ABSTRACT Prenatal and neonatal presentations of multiple congenital anomalies are difficult to diagnose and are associated with an increased risk of lethality. The differential diagnosis of antenatal presentations of radial ray malformations includes Fanconi anemia (FA), an inherited bone marrow failure disorder associated with congenital anomalies in ...
