Duplication of internal jugular vein - An incidental finding
Duplication of the internal jugular vein is a rare anatomic variation that may occasionally be encountered during neck surgeries. This anomaly presents as two separate internal jugular veins instead of the typical single vein.

Robust Palm-Vein Recognition Using the MMD Filter: Improving SIFT-Based Feature Matching [PDF]
A major challenge with palm vein images is that slight movements of the fingers and thumb, or variations in hand posture, can stretch the skin in different areas and alter the vein patterns. This can result in an infinite number of variations in palm vein images for a given individual.

Therapeutic embolization of the dural arteriovenous malformation involving the jugular bulb. [PDF]
Pulsatile tinnitus is a rarely occurring symptom of vascular origin. Most frequently, the symptoms are due to an arteriovenous malformation, to a tumor of the jugular glomus or to a local arterial stenosis.

Review of the Variations of the Superficial Veins of the Neck. [PDF]
The venous drainage of the neck can be characterized into superficial or deep. Superficial drainage refers to the venous drainage of the subcutaneous tissues, which are drained by the anterior and external jugular veins (EJVs).

A pre‐cannulation survey of the circle of Willis (CoW) using transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound was implemented to assess cerebral collateral circulation in children undergoing VA ECMO or cardiac surgery with cervical cannulation. The technique, in use since 2019, employs high‐end ultrasound platforms to assess brain morphology, haemorrhage and ...

Detecting Finger-Vein Presentation Attacks Using 3D Shape & Diffuse Reflectance Decomposition [PDF]
Despite the high biometric performance, finger-vein recognition systems are vulnerable to presentation attacks (aka., spoofing attacks). In this paper, we present a new and robust approach for detecting presentation attacks on finger-vein biometric systems exploiting the 3D Shape (normal-map) and material properties (diffuse-map) of the finger ...

Evaluation of serum miR‐216a and miR‐375 as biomarkers in dogs with acute pancreatitis
Abstract Background Serum microRNAs have emerged as biomarkers of various diseases. Overexpression of serum miR‐216a and miR‐375 occurs in dogs with experimentally induced acute pancreatitis (AP). Objectives To identify the possibility of using serum miR‐216a and miR‐375 as biomarkers for the diagnosis and evaluation of treatment response in dogs with ...

Abstract Background Racehorses commonly develop evidence of mild asthma in response to dust exposure. Diets deficient in omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Ω‐3) might exacerbate this response. Hypothesis To compare dust exposure, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cytology, and plasma Ω‐3 and specialized pro‐resolving mediators (SPM) concentrations ...
