A New 2.5D Representation for Lymph Node Detection using Random Sets of Deep Convolutional Neural Network Observations [PDF]
Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention -
MICCAI 2014 Volume 8673 of the series Lecture Notes in Computer Science pp
520-527, 2014 Automated Lymph Node (LN) detection is an important clinical diagnostic task but very challenging due to the low contrast of surrounding structures in Computed Tomography (CT) and to their varying sizes, poses, shapes and sparsely distributed locations.

Rare Lipomatous Tumor of the Posterior Mediastinum in Children
European Journal of Pediatric Surgery Reports, 2014 The mediastinum is a unique anatomic area containing various structures and pluripotent cells, which allow for the development of a range of tumors. We report two pediatric cases of a lipomatous tumor of the posterior mediastinum.

The mediastinum--Is it wide? [PDF]
Emergency Medicine Journal, 2001 To determine if the 8 cm upper limit for mediastinal width applies in the trauma setting of today. To define the upper limit of normal mediastinal width for supine chest films.A retrospective review of chest computed tomography scans was conducted to determine the width and position of the mediastinum within the supine chest. Radiographs were performed

Posterior mediastinal myelolipoma resected by video-assisted thoracic surgery
Journal of Minimal Access Surgery, 2019 Myelolipoma (ML) is a benign tumour composed of haematopoietic and mature adipose tissue commonly found in adrenal glands. Prognosis is usually good with an indolent clinical course. The occurrence of an ML in the extra-adrenal site is very rare. Herein,

Leveraging Anatomical Constraints with Uncertainty for Pneumothorax Segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Pneumothorax is a medical emergency caused by abnormal accumulation of air in the pleural space - the potential space between the lungs and chest wall. On 2D chest radiographs, pneumothorax occurs within the thoracic cavity and outside of the mediastinum and we refer to this area as "lung+ space". While deep learning (DL) has increasingly been utilized

Distribution of mediastinal ectopic thymic tissue in patients without thymic disease
Advanced Biomedical Research, 2015 Background: Different approaches to treat myasthenia gravis showed variable outcomes probably because of remained ectopic thymic tissue. The aim of this study is to determine incidence of thymic tissue in cases without any thymic disease.
