Dentomaxillofac Radiol
January 2025
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, School of Dentistry, Pusan National University, Yangsan, 50612, Korea.
Objectives: This study aimed to develop an automated method for generating clearer, well-aligned panoramic views by creating an optimized three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction zone centered on the teeth. The approach focused on achieving high contrast and clarity in key dental features, including tooth roots, morphology, and periapical lesions, by applying a 3D U-Net deep learning model to generate an arch surface and align the panoramic view.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed anonymized cone-beam CT (CBCT) scans from 312 patients (mean age 40 years; range 10-78; 41.
Bilateral facial nerve palsy in a patient with West Nile neuroinvasive disease.
J Infect Dev Ctries
December 2024
University Clinic for Infectious and Tropical Diseases of the University Clinical Centre of Serbia, Belgrade, Serbia.
Introduction: Bilateral facial nerve palsy (FNP) is a rare condition that is idiopathic in only 20%. FNP is the most common cranial neuropathy in West Nile neuroinvasive disease (WNND) but is usually unilateral and only a few cases of bilateral FNP have been reported.
Case: We present a case of a 65-year-old woman with confirmed WNND and simultaneous bilateral FNP.
Predictive value of enhanced corneal biomechanical parameters for ectasia progression.
Jpn J Ophthalmol
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, 2-2 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka, 565-0871, Japan.
Purpose: To determine whether corneal biomechanical parameters can predict ectasia progression.
Study Design: Retrospective observational study.
Methods: The baseline corneal biomechanical parameters of 64 eyes of 41 young patients (age, < 25 years at the first visit) who were diagnosed with keratoconus (KC) or suspected KC at Osaka University Hospital and followed up for more than two years were reviewed.
Spinal cord injury in abusive and accidental head injury in children, a neuropathological investigation.
Int J Legal Med
January 2025
London Neurodegenerative Diseases Brain Bank, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.
The diagnosis of abusive head trauma (AbHT) in children is a challenging one that needs to be differentiated from natural disease and accidental head injury (AcHT). There is increasing evidence from the Neuroradiology field showing spinal cord injury in children subject to AbHT, which has, so far, been poorly investigated pathologically. In this study we retrospectively reviewed the forensic records of 110 paediatric head injury cases over an eight-year-period.
