DT performed the energy dispersive X-ray analysis too. GG performed the post mortem examination and the histologic examination of all organs. MG carried out the immunoassays. SV performed the CT-scan and interpreted the thoracic radiographs. PAdJ interpreted the CT-scan. FGvS carried out the ...
dilated central canal acts as a kind of natural by-pass between the ventricles and the spinal subarachnoid space.In order to determine the role of spinal kaolin arachnoiditis on spinal cyst formation and central canal dilatation in 13 animals, kaolin was locally applied in the lower thoracic ...
X-ray examination revealed marked stenosis of the lumen in the thoracic segment of the trachea. Post-mortem examination of the trachea disclosed two formations. The larger, visible in the radiograph, was formed by thickened tracheal wall. The smaller one was of crest appearance and was located ...
