Improving the performance of convolutional neural network for skin image classification using the response of image analysis filters
(2019)In this work, we focus in the analysis of dermoscopy images using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). More specifically, we investigate the value of augmenting CNN inputs with the response of mid-level computer vision ... -
Increased HIF-1 alpha immunostaining in psoriasis compared to psoriasiform dermatitides
(2009)Background Expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) alpha can be linked to inflammation through reciprocal interactions with several cytokines. This finding is in accordance with the previously noted HIF-1 alpha ... -
Independent component clustering for skin lesions characterization
(2011)In this paper, we propose a clustering technique for the recognition of pigmented skin lesions in dermatological images. It is known that computer vision-based diagnosis systems have been used aiming mostly at the early ... -
Naturally Occurring Isohexenylnaphthazarins and Wound Healing: Experimental Study in Dogs
(2010)Background: The healing efficacy of isohexenylnaphthazarins (IHN) has been well proved on chronic or contaminated wounds. Objective: To evaluate the wound healing activity of an experimental ointment containing IHN on acute ... -
Numerical and experimental analysis of high frequency acoustic microscopy and infrared reflectance system for early detection of melanoma
(2016)Melanoma is a very malicious type of cancer as it metastasizes early and hence its late diagnosis leads to death. Consequently, early diagnosis of melanoma and its removal is considered the most effective way of treatment. ... -
Prevalence of Pediculosis Capitis among Schoolchildren in Greece and Risk Factors: A Questionnaire Survey
(2009)Pediculosis capitis is a common problem worldwide. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of pediculosis capitis in children of preschool or school age in Greece, as well as to investigate the potential risk ... -
Real-world clinical outcomes of treatment with brodalumab in patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis: a retrospective, 24-month experience from four academic dermatology centers in Greece
(2022)Objective: To assess the real-world clinical treatment outcomes with brodalumab in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in Greece. Materials and methods: This was a longitudinal, retrospective, real-world ... -
Regional parasite density in the skin of dogs with symptomatic canine leishmaniosis
(2007)In canine leishmaniosis, the parasitic density of the skin may be important for the infection of sandflies, and increased accumulation of inflammatory cells infected with Leishmania is believed to occur in dermal areas ... -
Relative sensitivity of hair pluckings and exudate microscopy for the diagnosis of canine demodicosis
(2007)This study was designed to compare the sensitivity of deep skin scraping, hair plucking, and exudate microscopy for the diagnosis of canine demodicosis. Sixty-seven dogs diagnosed with demodicosis were enrolled in the ... -
Sensitization to dust mites in cats with Otodectes cynotis infestation
(1999)Sensitization to the dust mites was demonstrated by an intradermal (ID) skin test in 33 of 55 cats with Otodectes cynotis infestation. Positive ID test reactions to Dermatophagoides farinae were noticed in 32 (58.2%), to ... -
Serum pharmacokinetics of clindamycin hydrochloride in normal dogs when administered at two dosage regimens
(2011)The aim of this cross-over study was to compare clindamycin pharmacokinetics in the serum of clinically normal dogs when administered orally at two dosage regimens (5.5 mg/kg, twice daily, and 11 mg/kg, once daily), separated ... -
Skin lesion diagnosis from images using novel ensemble classification techniques
(2010)Reduction of the error rate of melanoma diagnosis, a critical and very dangerous skin cancer that could be treated when early detected, is of major importance. Towards this direction, the present paper presents a novel ... -
Skin lesions characterisation utilising clustering algorithms
(2010)In this paper we propose a clustering technique for the recognition of pigmented skin lesions in dermatological images. It is known that computer vision-based diagnosis systems have been used aiming mostly at the early ...
