Urinary bladder involvement is rare and the imaging features are seldom reported. Involvement of the urinary bladder may be isolated or associated with more diffuse disease. The imaging features of neurofibromas are fairly characteristic and may often suggest the correct diagnosis, especially in patients...

Molecular diagnosis of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is challenging owing to the large size of the tumour suppressor gene NF1, and the lack of mutation hotspots. A somatic alteration of the wild-type NF1 allele is observed in NF1-associated tumours. Genetic heterogeneity in NF1 was ...
First, these children may not have had bacterial pneumonia, as fast breathing alone (a broad diagnostic criterion) was used for diagnosis. This is supported by a study from Pakistan that analysed 1848 children with WHO-defined non-severe pneumonia who had CXRs [45]. Of these, 1519 (82%) ...
I unfortunately do have to counsel some for whom optometry, for a variety of reasons, is out of their reach. That is always sad for me because I DO SO LOVE this profession! I will look forward Saturday to meeting a fellow “NF.” The “N” temperament is only 25% ...
It is typically diagnosed following a series of clinical assessments that include neurological and mental examinations and brain imaging. However, since many other disorders also display AD-like symptoms, the only way to definitively diagnosis AD is by tying clinical assessment of the disease to the...
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a functional imaging technique, meaning it can measure the metabolic activity of cells with an unprecedented sensitivity. Established applications are the diagnosis and staging of cancer, neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, and cardiac diseases [1]. Due ...

This diagnosis is shown to be compatible with the historical record of his phenotype, although it contradicts Thomas Young’s belief that Dalton was a protanope [31]. In 1876, Horner gave the first scientific analysis of the hereditary transmission of Daltonism. ‘Horner’s law’ says that ...
