EVALUATION OF RENAL CORTICAL ECHOGENICITY IN HEALTHY CATS USING ANISOTROPIC BACKSCATTER ARTIFACTS AND ECHOGENICITY DIFFERENCES AMONG INTERNAL ORGANS

Evaluation of renal cortical echogenicity in healthy cats using anisotropic backscatter artifacts and echogenicity differences among internal organs

AbstractBackground lovesense 3 Renal cortical anisotropic backscatter artifact (CABA) is a hyperechoic region of the renal poles where the insonation of sound beams is perpendicular to the renal tubules within the renal cortex.Aims To determine whether renal CABA can be observed in healthy cats and to compare the echogenicity of renal CABA with tha

Occupational exposure to ultraviolet radiation and risk of non-melanoma skin cancer in a multinational European study.

BACKGROUND: Studies suggest that ambient sunlight plays an important role in the pathogenesis of non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC).However, there is ongoing controversy regarding the relevance of occupational exposure to natural and artificial ultraviolet radiation (UV) radiation.OBJECTIVES: We investigated potential associations between natural and
