Enface views of conjunctiva in medically treated eyes at the surface (A), 10 μm below (B), show a small amount of microcysts that present a partially hyperreflective inner cavity due to the accumulation of amorphous material.

Objective: To analyze the three-dimensional (3D) features of conjunctival epithelial microcysts (CEM) in eyes affected with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods: This was a case series study. Nine patients that underwent successful trabeculectomy and four eyes with medically controlled POAG were enrolled. Patients were examined with confocal...

Objective
To fully understand the original spatial position and three-dimensional (3D) anatomical morphology of cardiac skeleton (CS), and to quickly locate its position in patient-specific computed tomography angiography (CTA) images.
Materials and Methods
First, we segmented and reconstructed 3D models of CS and its attached valves with Amira so...
To explore fundamental principles characterizing chemosensory information processing, we have identified antennal-lobe projection neurons in the heliothine moth, including several neuron types not previously described. Generally, odor information is conveyed from the primary olfactory center of the moth brain, the antennal lobe, to higher brain cen...

Introduction: In vivo imaging provides a powerful approach for non-invasive, longitudinal characterization of preclinical small animal cancer models. Moreover, targeted imaging has the potential to address the specific molecular and functional abnormalities underlying the process of tumor development. Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessel...

At the present time, imaging guided renal biopsy is used to provide diagnoses in most types of primary and secondary renal diseases. It has been claimed that renal biopsy can provide a link between diagnosis of renal disease and its pathological conditions. However, sometimes there is a considerable mismatch between patient renal outcome and pathological findings in renal biopsy. This is the time to address some new diagnostic methods to resolve the insufficiency of conventional percutaneous guided renal biopsy. Nanotechnology is still in its infancy in renal imaging; however, it seems that it is the next step in renal biopsy, providing solutions to the limitations of conventional modalities.
