Developing a visual sensing system, complete with motion processing hardware and software would have many applications to current technology. It could be mounted on many autonomous vehicles to provide information about the navigational environment, as well as obstacle avoidance features. Incorporating the motion processing capabilities into the sensor requires a new approach to the algorithm implementation. This research, and that of many others, have turned to nature for inspiration. Elementary motion detector (EMD) cells are involved in a biological preprocessing network to provide information to the motion processing lobes of the house degrees y Musca domestica. This paper describes the response of the photoreceptor inputs to the EMDs. The inputs to the EMD components are tested as they are stimulated with varying image primitives. This is the first of many steps in characterizing the EMD response to image primitives.

Accurate segmentation and classification of glomeruli are fundamental to histopathology slide analysis in renal pathology, which helps to characterize individual kidney disease. Accurate segmentation of glomeruli of different types faces two main challenges compared to traditional primitives segmentation in computational image analysis. Limited by small kernel size, traditional convolutional neural networks could hardly understand the complete context information of different glomeruli.

Ewing sarcoma family tumors (ESFT) pose diagnostic challenges, which largely depend on the primary site of involvement and tumor stage. Despite advancements in treatment, metastatic ESFTs remain associated with poor outcomes. This case describes a 21-year-old woman who, in July 2022, presented with a left breast mass identified through ultrasound and CT scan, along with abdominal distention.

Background: Supracondylar humerus fractures (SCHFs) are the most common elbow fractures in children and are typically treated with closed reduction and Kirschner pin fixation. However, varying degrees of residual rotational displacement may remain after closed reduction. Several methods exist to assess rotational displacement, but none account for the effect of elbow rotation on the results.

Background: Primary intracranial Ewing Sarcoma/peripheral Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor (EWS/pPNET) is exceedingly rare and easy to misdiagnose.
Case Presentation: We present a case involving a 23-year-old male who presented with headaches and vomiting. The preoperative brain imaging revealed an irregular mass in the left parietal lobe, initially misdiagnosed as meningioma.
