TRANS-INTRAUTERINE CONTRAST-ENHANCED ULTRASOUND (CEUS) CAN BE AN EFFECTIVE APPROACH FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF VESICOUTERINE FISTULA (VUF), ESPECIALLY FOR PATIENTS WITH FISTULAS FLOWING UNIDIRECTIONALLY FROM THE UTERINE CAVITY

Trans-intrauterine contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can be an effective approach for the diagnosis of vesicouterine fistula (VUF), especially for patients with fistulas flowing unidirectionally from the uterine cavity

Background: Vesicouterine fistula (VUF) is a rare complication after cesarean section.It is challenging to diagnose VUF correctly.Case presentation: A 34-year-old woman complained of recurrent hematuria and urinary tract infection for more than 4 years after cesarean delivery, mostly during menstruation, without vaginal leakage and with a normal me

Quantum walk processes in quantum devices

Simulation and programming of current quantum computers as Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices represent a hot topic at the border of current physical and information sciences.The quantum walk process represents a basic subroutine in many quantum algorithms and plays an important role in studying physical phenomena.Simulating quantum wa

At-sea observations of the spring migration and pair bonding of ivory gulls (Pagophila eburnea) around Svalbard and East Greenland

Because of logistical constraints little previous information exists on ivory gulls (Pagophila eburnea) in the waters around Svalbard and the east coast of Greenland in late winter/early spring.The Swedish Arctic Ocean 2002 expedition investigated these areas at that time of year and in this paper I report on the observations of ivory gulls made du
