Advances in the pathogenesis of canine leishmaniosis: epidemiologic and diagnostic implications
(2009)Canine leishmaniosis caused by Leishmania infantum (Syn. L. chagasi) is an important zoonosis with a complex pathogenesis. Parasite transmission occurs via female sandflies that inject promastigotes into the skin of the ... -
Aetiology of canine otitis externa: a retrospective study of 100 cases
(2007)The objective of this retrospective study was to investigate in 100 dogs with otitis externa (OE) the possible associations between signalment, history, clinical and laboratory findings and the various primary, secondary ... -
Assessment of cross-reactivity among five species of house dust and storage mites
(2008)In vitro cross-reactivity among two house dust (Dermatophagoides farinae, D. pteronyssinus) and three storage (Acarus siro, Tyrophagus putrescentiae, Lepidoglyphus destructor) mites was examined in 20 mite-sensitive dogs ... -
Automated detection of streaks in dermoscopy images
(2015)In this paper we present a novel algorithm for the detection of dark linear structures, which appear in digital dermoscopy images of skin lesions and they are called as streaks in relevant literature. The proposed algorithm ... -
Automated skin lesion assessment using mobile technologies and cloud platforms
(2012)This paper presents a smart phone based system for storing digital images of skin areas depicting regions of interest (lesions) and performing self-assessment of these skin lesions within these areas. The system consists ... -
Claw histopathology and parasitic load in natural cases of canine leishmaniosis associated with Leishmania infantum
(2010)Histological lesions and the presence of Leishmania spp. amastigotes in claw tissues were investigated in 40 dogs with leishmaniosis, with (16/40 - group A) or without (24/40 - group B) generalized onychogryphosis. Following ... -
Clinical, histopathological and therapeutic considerations in a flock of sheep with facial staphylococcal-associated dermatitis
(2007)In a flock of 290 sheep, a total of 20 ewes (6.9%) with an age range of 1.5-4 years, developed a nonpruritic dermatitis characterized by alopecia/hypotrichosis, erythema, hyperpigmentation, crusting, superficial ulcers, ... -
Cutaneous involvement in canine leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum (syn. L. chagasi)
(2014)Background Canine leishmaniosis, a zoonotic infectious disease caused by Leishmania infantum (syn. L. chagasi), is fairly common in endemic areas, and skin lesions are the most frequent clinical manifestation. Despite the ... -
Detection of malignant melanomas in dermoscopic images using convolutional neural network with transfer learning
(2017)In this work, we report the use of convolutional neural networks for the detection of malignant melanomas against nevus skin lesions in a dataset of dermoscopic images of the same magnification. The technique of transfer ... -
Development of an mHealth open source platform for diabetic foot ulcers tele-consultations
(2012)Diabetes is one of the foremost causes of death in many countries and a leading cause of blindness, renal failure, and non-traumatic amputation. Therefore, diabetic foot ulceration and amputation cause extensive burden on ... -
Dust mite species in the households of mite-sensitive dogs with atopic dermatitis
(2012)Background The presence of important house dust and storage mite species in the microenvironment of atopic dogs has not been thoroughly investigated. Objectives To compare the presence and population of five dust mite ... -
Early detection of melanoma with the combined use of acoustic microscopy, infrared reflectance and Raman spectroscopy
(2015)Malignant melanoma is a form of skin cancer, with increasing incidence worldwide. Early diagnosis is crucial for the prognosis and treatment of the disease. The objective of this study is to develop a novel animal model ... -
Environmental and oral challenge with storage mites in beagles experimentally sensitized to Dermatophagoides farinae
(2010)This study aimed to investigate whether challenge with storage mites elicited flare ups of atopic dermatitis (AD) in Dermatophagoides farinae sensitized atopic Beagles housed in a house dust and storage mite-free environment. ... -
Heterogeneous data fusion and selection in high-volume molecular and imaging datasets
(2012)In this work, two disparate datasets, concerning the study of the same physiological type of cutaneous melanoma but derived from different donors, one of image (dermatoscopy) and the other of molecular (trascriptomic ... -
High-frequency ultrasound biomicroscopy of the normal canine haired skin
(2014)BackgroundThe ultrasonographic appearance of the normal canine haired skin examined using high-frequency ultrasonography has not been described. Hyposthesis/ObjectivesTo describe the echogenicity of normal canine haired ... -
Hippocrates on Pediatric Dermatology
(2015)Hippocrates of Kos is well known in medicine, but his contributions to pediatric dermatology have not previously been examined. A systematic study of Corpus Hippocraticum was undertaken to document references of clinical ...
