Axis‐Normalized Ray‐Box Intersection
Abstract Ray‐axis aligned bounding box intersection tests play a crucial role in the runtime performance of many rendering applications, driven not by complexity but mainly by the volume of tests required. While existing solutions were believed to be pretty much optimal in terms of runtime on current hardware, our paper introduces a new intersection ...

SOBB: Skewed Oriented Bounding Boxes for Ray Tracing
Abstract We propose skewed oriented bounding boxes (SOBB) as a novel bounding primitive for accelerating the calculation of ray‐scene intersections. SOBBs have the same memory footprint as the well‐known oriented bounding boxes (OBB) and can be used with a similar ray intersection algorithm. We propose an efficient algorithm for constructing a BVH with

Laparoscopic-assisted removal of gastric trichobezoar by a Novel Technique
Trichobezoar are mass of hair in the digestive tract caused by ingestion of hairs (trichophagia) mostly as a result of psychiatric disorders. The management of Trichobezoar includes psychiatric treatment to stop trichophagia and removal of trichobezoar ...

Lithobezoar and Phytobezoar Causing Intestinal Obstruction: A Report of Two Cases
ABSTRACT Concretion or mass formed of exogenous undigested material in the gastrointestinal tract is called bezoar. Bezoar is a rare condition and can present with clinical features ranging from recurrent abdominal pain to acute presentation with obstruction or gastrointestinal bleeding. Preoperative diagnosis is usually done by imaging studies.

Uma massa abdominal incaracterística na idade pediátrica – Síndrome de Rapunzel [PDF]
The Rapunzel syndrome is a rare condition, a term also used for a trichobezoar that presents a tail to the duodenum and/or jejunum through the pylorus. This is caused by a “hairy ball” within the stomach, leading to gastric outlet obstruction. We present

Rapunzel syndrome: Surgical problem in a neuropsychiatric disorder
The Rapunzel syndrome is an extreme form of trichobezoar found in patients with a history of psychiatric disorders, like trichotillomania (habit of hair pulling) and trichophagia (morbid habit of chewing the hair).

Rapunzel syndrome presenting as biliary obstruction
Trichobezoars are characterized as a mass of matted hair retained in the stomach. Rapunzel syndrome is characterized by a gastric trichobezoar extending beyond the pylorus and most often presents with symptoms of intestinal obstruction including ...

Trichobezoars as a cause of intestinal obstruction in a young female [PDF]
A bezoar is a mass found trapped in the gastrointestinal system, though it can occur in other locations. There are various types of bezoars including food boluses, lactobezoar, pharmacobezoar, phytobezoar, diospyrobezoar and trichobezoar. They are common
