Detection of Helicobacter Pylori in the lacrimal sac mucosa of the patients with primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori have been detected in sinonasal mucosa in both normal and pathologic condition. The nasolacrimal duct is within the medial wall of maxillary sinus and open into the nasal cavity, so ascending colonization of nasolacrimal duct and ...

Imaging of adult ocular and orbital pathology - a pictorial review [PDF]
Orbital pathology often presents a diagnostic challenge to the reporting radiologist. The aetiology is protean, and clinical input is therefore often necessary to narrow the differential diagnosis.

Length correction of 2D discontinuities or perforations at large wavelengths and for linear acoustics [PDF]
This work focuses on the length correction due to radiation effect of a duct discontinuity or at the surface of a perforated plate in the linear acoustic domain and at large wavelengths. Two results are obtained from the comparison of models used in the literature for different geometries of duct discontinuities or perforations.

A Case of Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction Caused by a Lacrimal Sac Retention Cyst [PDF]
Acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction may result from chronic infection, lacrimal stones, anatomical variations such as aberrant ethmoid cells, facial fractures, or complications following nasal surgery.

Asymptomatic lacrimal flow abnormalities in patients with septal deviations and turbinate hypertrophy [PDF]
Background: This study aimed to investigate the lacrimal flow in patients affected by septal deviations and turbinate hypertrophy and to evaluate changes after rhinoseptoplasty with dacryocystography (DCT) and computed tomographic dacryocystography (CT ...

Deep Learning for Classifying and Characterizing Atmospheric Ducting within the Maritime Setting [PDF]
Real-time characterization of refractivity within the marine atmospheric boundary layer can provide valuable information that can potentially be used to mitigate the effects of atmospheric ducting on radar performance. Many duct characterization models are successful at predicting parameters from a specific refractivity profile associated with a given ...

Androgen receptor-positive ductal adenocarcinoma of the nasolacrimal duct: A case report
Purpose: Primary ductal adenocarcinoma arising in the structures of the lacrimal apparatus is extremely rare, and the entity is considered a lacrimal counterpart of salivary duct carcinoma, of which the majority are known to express androgen receptor (AR)

Sex and Age Morphometric Variations in Bony Nasolacrimal Duct and Fossa for Lacrimal Gland in Mexican Population [PDF]
SUMMARY: Primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction is greater in women over 40 years and has been associated with morphometric variations in the osseous nasolacrimal duct, which varies according to age and sex.
