Radiological Assessment of Pituitary Hyperplasia in Newly Diagnosed Cases of Primary Hypothyroidism after Hormone Therapy: A Longitudinal Study [PDF]
Introduction: With long-standing hypothyroidism, thyrotrophin hyperplasia can result in the enlargement of the pituitary gland. Regression of the hyperplasia has been shown to occur following adequate treatment of primary hypothyroidism with hormone ...

Brain tumor detection using artificial convolutional neural networks [PDF]
In this paper, a convolutional neural network (CNN) was used to classify NMR images of human brains with 4 different types of tumors: meningioma, glioma and pituitary gland tumors. During the training phase of this project, an accuracy of 100% was obtained, meanwhile, in the evaluation phase the precision was 96%.

Hypophysial transposition (hypophysopexy) for radiosurgical treatment of pituitary tumors involving the cavernous sinus [PDF]
Journal ArticleStereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is performed with increasing frequency in the treatment of residual or recurrent pituitary adenomas. Its major associated risk in these cases of residual or recurrent pituitary tumor adjacent to normal ...

Effect of delayed acquisition times on Gadolinium-enhanced MRI of the presumably normal canine brain [PDF]
A delay in imaging following intravenous contrast medium administration has been recommended to reduce misdiagnoses. However, the normal variation of contrast enhancement in dogs following a delay has not been characterized.

Deprenyl, an old drug with new anticancer potential: Mini review [PDF]
The anticancer potential of monoamine oxidase (MAO) was observed in pre-clinical assays conducted with cell cultures and animals. L-Deprenyl (DEP) causes apoptosis in melanoma, leukemia and mammary cells. High-dose DEP has shown toxicity in mammary and pituitary cancers, as well as in monoblastic leukemia, in rats.

Ligula intestinalis (Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea): an ideal fish-metazoan parasite model? [PDF]
Since its use as a model to study metazoan parasite culture and in vitro development, the plerocercoid of the tapeworm, Ligula intestinalis, has served as a useful scientific tool to study a range of biological factors, particularly within its fish ...

Identification and Profiling of Pituitary microRNAs of Sheep during Anestrus and Estrus Stages
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs, molecules of 21 to 25 nucleotides in length, that regulate gene expression by binding to their target mRNA and play a significant role in animal development.
