Phyllodes tumor with metastases to the skull managed with local excision: A case report
The behavior of phyllodes tumors is unpredictable and can behave as benign fibroadenomas or malignant neoplasms mimicking the course of aggressive sarcomas, characterized by distant metastases and a high short-term mortality.

High resolution transcranial imaging based on the optoacoustic memory effect [PDF]
Acoustic impedance mismatches between soft tissues and bones are known to result in strong aberrations in optoacoustic and ultrasound images. Of particular importance are the severe distortions introduced by the human skull, impeding transcranial brain imaging with these modalities.

Chondroblastoma with Secondary Aneurysmal Bone Cyst in the Sphenoid Sinus: A Case Report
Chondroblastomas are rare benign cartilaginous neoplasms found in young patients. These tumors typically arise in the epiphysis or apophysis of a long bone. Chondroblastomas arising in the skull and facial bones are extremely rare.

Computational Intelligence Approach to Improve the Classification Accuracy of Brain Neoplasm in MRI Data [PDF]
Automatic detection of brain neoplasm in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is gaining importance in many medical diagnostic applications. This report presents two improvements for brain neoplasm detection in MRI data: an advanced preprocessing technique is proposed to improve the area of interest in MRI data and a hybrid technique using Convolutional ...

Simultaneous Skull Conductivity and Focal Source Imaging from EEG Recordings with the help of Bayesian Uncertainty Modelling [PDF]
The electroencephalography (EEG) source imaging problem is very sensitive to the electrical modelling of the skull of the patient under examination. Unfortunately, the currently available EEG devices and their embedded software do not take this into account; instead, it is common to use a literature-based skull conductivity parameter. In this paper, we
