Label Propagation for 3D Carotid Vessel Wall Segmentation and Atherosclerosis Diagnosis [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Carotid vessel wall segmentation is a crucial yet challenging task in the computer-aided diagnosis of atherosclerosis. Although numerous deep learning models have achieved remarkable success in many medical image segmentation tasks, accurate segmentation of carotid vessel wall on magnetic resonance (MR) images remains challenging, due to limited ...

Anatomical study of the carotid bifurcation and origin variations of the ascending pharyngeal and superior thyroid arteries [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Human anatomy texts in current use have very little precise information as to the frequency of variations in the bifurcation of the common carotid artery, and a clear description of the relation between external and internal carotid arteries ...

Internal Carotid Artery Redundancy is Significantly Associated With Dissection. [PDF]

, 1994
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Redundant internal carotid arteries have been considered a risk factor in tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, and surgical treatment of peritonsillar abscess and also a potentially treatable cause of stroke.

Anomalous external carotid-internal carotid artery anastomosis diagnosed by computed tomography angiography: a case report

Radiology Case Reports, 2020
An anomalous anastomosis between the external and internal carotid arteries forming an arterial ring at the level of the cervical internal carotid artery is an extremely rare variant, and its embryological origin remains unclear.

Dietary supplement of sodium butyrate improves the growth performance and intestinal health by targeting Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway in rabbits

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary supplement of sodium butyrate, may relate to regulating intestinal health and thus the growth performance and meat quality of rabbits by regulating the continuous process of promoting the periodic cycle of cecal epithelial cells. Abstract Supplementation of sodium butyrate (SB) has been proved to be beneficial for improving the growth ...

Segmentation of carotid vessel wall using U-Net and segmentation average network [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Segmentation of carotid vessel wall is required in vessel wall volume (VWV) and local vessel-wall-plus-plaque thickness (VWT) quantification of the carotid artery. Manual segmentation of the vessel wall is time-consuming and prone to interobserver variability. In this paper, we proposed a convolution neural network to segment the common carotid artery (
