MORPHOLOGICAL AND HISTOLOGICAL STUDIES ON PARATHYROID GLAND OF ADULT MALE GOAT (CAPRA HIRCUS)

open access: yesSlovenian Veterinary Research, 2018
The parathyroid glands are essential endocrine glands as they produce hormones that maintain calcium within the normal level in blood through secretion of parathormone. The removal of parathyroid glands leads to fatal levels of hypocalcemia.

DFGET: Displacement-Field Assisted Graph Energy Transmitter for Gland Instance Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Gland instance segmentation is an essential but challenging task in the diagnosis and treatment of adenocarcinoma. The existing models usually achieve gland instance segmentation through multi-task learning and boundary loss constraint. However, how to deal with the problems of gland adhesion and inaccurate boundary in segmenting the complex samples ...

ON THE RELATION OF TETANY TO THE PARATHYROID GLANDS AND TO CALCIUM METABOLISM

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 1909
1. Tetany occurs spontaneously in many forms and may also be produced by the destruction of the parathyroid glands. Recent researches tend to demonstrate an intimate relation between the various forms of tetany and relative or absolute insufficiency of ...

An automated and multi-parametric algorithm for objective analysis of meibography images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Meibography is a non-contact imaging technique used by ophthalmologists to assist in the evaluation and diagnosis of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). While artificial qualitative analysis of meibography images could lead to low repeatability and efficiency and multi-parametric analysis is demanding to offer more comprehensive information in ...
