Drusen is considered as the landmark for diagnosis of AMD and important risk factor for the development of AMD. Therefore, accurate segmentation of drusen in retinal OCT images is crucial for early ...

In medical image analysis applications, the availability of the large amounts of annotated data is becoming increasingly critical. However, annotated medical data is often scarce and costly to obtain.

A new study reveals that neural stem cell grafts can generate new myelin in the central nervous system, offering hope for ...

Collagen II has been found mainly around retinal blood vessels, as part of the ECM sheath that encapsulates retinal vasculature (47) but also as isolated deposits in the retina, which have been ...

A study published in the June 2025 issue of Journal of Neurology reported that structural changes in the retina, as detected by optical coherence tomography, may serve as indicators of ...

The gold-plated sheath has nine sides and measures about 1 foot in length, officials said. It was made in Japan between 550 and 650 and originally used to cover the blade of a long-handled spear.

Acquired inflammatory central nervous system (CNS) disorders include multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), optic ...

To better understand any pathological processes related to Alzheimer's disease that might affect the myelin sheath, Yale researchers analyzed proteins in human brain tissue, focusing on the sub ...

MS is characterized by chronic inflammation and demyelination within the central nervous system. Demyelination occurs when the protective myelin sheath surrounding nerve fibers in the brain and spinal ...

The disruption of axons—the thread-like part of nerve cells that transmits electrical signals—is associated with Alzheimer’s disease. One way axonal function may be hindered is through damage to the ...
