Sequential Wnt Agonist then Antagonist Treatment Accelerates Tissue Repair and Minimizes Fibrosis [PDF]
Tissue fibrosis compromises organ function and occurs as a potential long-term outcome in response to acute tissue injuries. Currently, lack of mechanistic understanding prevents effective prevention and treatment of the progression from acute injury to fibrosis. Here, we combined quantitative experimental studies with a mouse kidney injury model and a

Recent Advances in Fibrosis and Scar Segmentation from Cardiac MRI: A State-of-the-Art Review and Future Perspectives [PDF]
Segmentation of cardiac fibrosis and scar are essential for clinical diagnosis and can provide invaluable guidance for the treatment of cardiac diseases. Late Gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has been successful for its efficacy in guiding the clinical diagnosis and treatment reliably.

Imaging Diagnosis—Sonographic Features of Bilateral Renal Lymphangiectasia in an Azotemic Dog
ABSTRACT A 9‐year‐old male neutered Labrador Retriever was referred for azotemia and bilateral renomegaly. An abdominal ultrasound revealed severe bilateral renomegaly with septated subcapsular cystic anechoic lesions, consistent with renal lymphangiectasia. Despite conservative management, the patient died.

Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis in a young female; the first case report in Sri Lanka
Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (IRF) is a rare disease with a better prognosis if identified earlier and treated promptly. This is thought to be secondary to an autoimmune process resulting in fibrosis, causing obstructive uropathy.

A brief review of the literature on the malignant ureteral obstruction [PDF]
Malignant ureteral obstruction (MUO) caused by a primarily urological tumor or secondary to a late-stage malignancy can be difficult for the urologist to manage. Due to a lack of clinical data on the management of MUO, every case is particular and should
