Graph Classification and Radiomics Signature for Identification of Tuberculous Meningitis [PDF]
arXivIntroduction: Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is a serious brain infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, characterized by inflammation of the meninges covering the brain and spinal cord. Diagnosis often requires invasive lumbar puncture (LP) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis.

Magnetic resonance features of intracranial tuberculosis in children
South African Journal of Radiology, 2001 Intracranial tuberculosis in children is seen as either parenchymal tuberculous lesions or tuberculous meningitis (TBM). This article demonstrates the MR features of TBM and the two varieties of tuberculous (TB) granulomata.

Singularity and Symmetry Analyses for Tuberculosis Epidemics [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 We analyse the model of Tuberculosis due to Blower (Nature Medecine 1(8) 815-821) from the point of view of symmetry and singularity analysis. From the study we provide a demonstration of the integrability of the model to present an explicit solution.

Mechanical Properties of the Meninges: Large Language Model Assisted Systematic Review of over 25,000 Studies [PDF]
arXivAccurate constitutive models and corresponding mechanical property values for the meninges are important for predicting mechanical damage to brain tissue due to traumatic brain injury. The meninges are often oversimplified in current finite element (FE) head models due to their complex anatomy and spatially-variant mechanical behavior.

A Data Mining Approach to the Diagnosis of Tuberculosis by Cascading Clustering and Classification [PDF]
Journal of computing, volume 3, issue 4,April 2011, ISSN 2151-9617, 2011 In this paper, a methodology for the automated detection and classification of Tuberculosis(TB) is presented. Tuberculosis is a disease caused by mycobacterium which spreads through the air and attacks low immune bodies easily. Our methodology is based on clustering and classification that classifies TB into two categories, Pulmonary Tuberculosis(PTB ...
