The anatomy of the head and neck region is complex, and includes mesenchymal tissues of essentially all types. It is therefore not surprising that the head and neck gives rise to an extraordinary variety of benign, borderline, and malignant soft tissue tumors, encompassing essentially all of the...
Clinical studies involving soft tissue injuries in patients with large total body surface burns document involvement of the head and neck from 25% to 45%.1,2Scarring is the normal end result of any deep traumatic injury to the skin. Burn injury only represents a segment of traumatic injuries...
The great majority of adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have no specific space-occupying lesions, and apnea results from disproportionate anatomy of the upper airway and its supporting structures. Skeletal and soft-tissue components of the anatomy of the head and neck contribute to ...
Since the knee joint must strike the perfect balance between strength for weight bearing and flexibility for movement purposes, it is reinforced by various soft tissue structures. The joint is surrounded by several fat pads and bursae, which are synovial fluid-filled sacs that reduce the friction ...
These include (i) acting as a “third leg” during a bipedal standing posture4, an interpretation that proved to be questionable based on the anatomy of the caudal vertebrae5; (ii) acting as a counterbalance to the long neck6; (iii) providing insertion points for the long caudofemoralis ...
Knowledge of the normal anatomy and often specific location of these diseases, in combination with the relevant clinical history and potential skin changes, enable the correct diagnosis in most cases, thereby limiting the need for invasive procedures. However, biopsy should be performed in indeterminate...
Anatomy-specific (AS) NNC was designed to separate the bony structures from soft tissue in different lung segments. While an AS design was proposed previously under our massive-training artificial neural networks (MTANN) framework, in this work, we newly mathematically defined an AS experts model ...
The bony anatomy that is delineated with CT images facilitates the approach to lesions of the anterior skull base, whereas the MR image provides the requisite detail for the surrounding soft tissues. This combination of bony and soft tissue radiography is not possible without the fusion capability ...
It has been said, ‘Bone sets the tone, but tissue is the issue.’ In the field of implantology, while significant breakthroughs have been achieved in hard tissue regeneration, clinicians find it more challenging to handle soft tissue complications around dental implants. Successfully managing soft...
