Literary data and personal experience furnished ground for assessing the value and determining the proper employment of imaging methods as used in the detection of bladder carcinoma. It seems highly advisable to perform native radiography and excretion urography. Upon the recording of a transabdominal echogram, intravesical ultrasonography, performed under narcosis simultaneously with biopsy and cystoscopy, constitutes an ideal complement to the latter and has proved to be the most effective diagnostic method to detect a carcinomatous infiltration of the bladder wall. Extravesical propagation is assessed with the help of CT whose degree of reliability increases in proportion with the progression rate of the tumour. Foot-dorsum type lymphography only visualizes juxtaregional lymph nodes, endovesical lymphography the regional ones. Additional modes of metastasis detection include chest X-ray, liver-spleen scintigraphy and bone scintigraphy. Uretero-entero-anastomosis must be preceded by irrigoscopy.

The effectiveness of a conservative approach in the management of groove pancreatitis.
Indian J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology, Christian Medical College, Vellore, 632 517, India.
Background: Groove pancreatitis (GP) is a form of pancreatitis that affects the pancreaticoduodenal groove area, which lies between the head of the pancreas, the second part of the duodenum and the distal bile duct, presenting as abdominal pain and gastric outlet obstruction. In this study, we present the clinical and radiological characteristics of individuals diagnosed with groove pancreatitis at our center and discuss the use of a conservative treatment approach in managing GP.
Methods: The data of patients with groove pancreatitis treated at our center between January 2012 and December 2021 was analyzed.
Visualization of porcine and human aqueous humor outflow tract anatomies with transparency enhancement.
Jpn J Ophthalmol
January 2025
Institute for Photon Science and Technology, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1, Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, 113-8656, Japan.
Purpose: There is no established method for visualizing the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the aqueous humor outflow tract. This study attempted to visualize the 3D structures of porcine and human ocular tissues, particularly the aqueous humor outflow tract using a transparency reagent composed of 2, 2-thiodiethanol.

Minimally invasive parafascicular surgery (MIPS) with the use of tubular retractors achieve a safe resection in deep seated tumours. Diffusion changes noted on postoperative imaging; the significance and clinical correlation of this remains poorly understood. Single centre retrospective cohort study of neuro-oncology patients undergoing MIPS.

Fluorescent biosensors offer a powerful tool for tracking and quantifying protein activity in living systems with high temporospatial resolution. However, the expression of genetically encoded fluorescent proteins can interfere with endogenous signaling pathways, potentially leading to developmental and physiological abnormalities. The EKAREV-NLS mouse model, which carries a FRET-based biosensor for monitoring extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activity, has been widely utilized both in vivo and in vitro across various cell types and organs.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) severity and fat, bone, and muscle indices.
Methods: This study included 102 patients with OSAHS and retrospectively reviewed their physical examination data. All patients underwent polysomnography, body composition analysis, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, computed tomography (CT) and blood test.
