Arterial Tortuosity Syndrome [PDF]
A rare autosomal recessive condition, Arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS) presents with ectactic blood vessels, cutaneous laxity, and bowel rupture. We report a case of an asymptomatic infant with arterial tortuosity syndrome who presented with left ventricular hypertrophy without any obvious obstruction to the outflow tract.

U-Net Segmented Adjacent Angle Detection (USAAD) for Automatic Analysis of Corneal Nerve Structures
Measurement of corneal nerve tortuosity is associated with dry eye disease, diabetic retinopathy, and a range of other conditions. However, clinicians measure tortuosity on very different grading scales that are inherently subjective.
