Unlike other cancers, the Sentinel Lymph Node (SLN) procedure in bladder cancer requires special attention to the injection technique. The aim of this study was to assess feasibility and to optimize tracer injection technique for SLN... more
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate pathological processes, yet their potential roles in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) are poorly understood. To profile transcriptionally dysregulated lncRNAs in PTC and identify lncRNAs associated... more
Treatment of mice with hydroxyurea to selectively kill all cycling cells has been used to study population dynamics and life expectancy of “natural” immunoglobulin-secreting cells in the bone marrow and spleen of nonimmunized animals. The... more
The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy with technetium 99 (99mTc) and/or blue dye-enhanced lymphoscintigraphy in vulval cancer. Sensitive searches of databases were performed upto... more
This paper presents current knowledge about the structure and function of the lymphatic system. Mathematical models of lymph flow in the single lymphangion, the series of lymphangions, the lymph nodes, and the whole lymphatic system are... more
The purpose of this study was to evaluate prospectively the sensitivity and specificity of scintimammography in the detection of both primary breast cancer and axillary lymph node involvement. Sixty-five consecutive women referred for a... more
