Detection of nanodiamonds in biological samples by EPR spectrometry.

Doklady. Biochemistry and biophysics
In model experiments in vitro, the applicability of the EPR spectrometry method for the detection of modified nanodiamonds (MNDs) in blood and homogenates of mouse organs has been established. A characteristic signal (g = 2.003, ΔH ≈ 10 G) is observe...

[In vitro Modulating Activity of aqueous extracts from American Plants on Chlorpyrifos-induced toxicity on Murine Splenocytes].

Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Medicas (Cordoba, Argentina)
BACKGROUND: Chlorpyrifos is an highly toxic pesticide, which can induce immunotoxicity with deleterious effects on health worldwide. On the other hand, American plants can provide derivatives with protective and immunostimulating activity. Thus, plan...

Improved perioperative outcomes of laparoscopic distal pancreatosplenectomy: modified lasso technique.

ANZ journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: Simultaneous division of the splenic artery, splenic vein and pancreatic parenchyma during laparoscopic distal pancreatosplenectomy (LDPS) is known as the lasso technique, which is considered to be simple to perform. However, the original...

Organ Location Determination and Contour Sparse Representation for Multiorgan Segmentation.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Organ segmentation on computed tomography (CT) images is of great importance in medical diagnoses and treatment. This paper proposes organ location determination and contour sparse representation methods (OLD-CSR) for multiorgan segmentation (liver, ...

Automatic abdominal multi-organ segmentation using deep convolutional neural network and time-implicit level sets.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Multi-organ segmentation from CT images is an essential step for computer-aided diagnosis and surgery planning. However, manual delineation of the organs by radiologists is tedious, time-consuming and poorly reproducible. Therefore, we propo...

Robotic left colon cancer resection: a dual docking technique that maximizes splenic flexure mobilization.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Techniques for robotic resection of the left colon are not well defined and have not been widely adopted due to limited range of motion of the robotic arms. We have developed a dual docking technique for both the splenic flexure and the p...

Relationship between spleen volume and diameter for assessment of response to treatment on CT in patients with hematologic malignancies enrolled in clinical trials.

Abdominal radiology (New York)
PURPOSE: Investigate spleen diameter (d) and volume (v) relationship in patients with hematologic malignancies (HM) by determining volumetric thresholds that best correlate to established diameter thresholds for assessing response to treatment. Explo...
