A Study Of Angiogenesis In Human Colorectal Tumors By Using Anti-Cd34 Antibody. (Assessment By Light Microscope And Computer–Aided Image Analysis System)

Background:
Angiogenesis plays a crucial role in tumorigensis; several reports have described a significant increase in microvessel density (MVD) in colorectal carcinogenesis There are
several methods to measure the angiogenesis in neoplasms, but immunohitochemistry seems to be the mainstay of all. This method enable us to measure the tumor microvessel densities highlighted by using antibodies directed against endothelial cell markers like CD31,CD34 or others; then assessment of MVD by manual count of the number of microvessels in what appears to be the most vascular area of the tumor(called the hot spot) using a protocol described by Weidner et al.Automated cellular imaging system is used to analyze
immunohistochemically stained slides .studies have shown that the device offers accurate precision and reproducibility of immunostained slide analysis exceeding that possible with
manual evaluation which was the prevalent method.
Aims of the study:
To assess the angiogenesis in normal, adenomatous (benign) and malignant colorectal tissues using CD34 and the microvessels will be measured both manually by hot spot
method as the MVD and by the use of computerized image analysis system as fraction area ,we correlate between microvessels density and fraction area with various
clinicopathological parameters in colorectal cancer (CRC), and to a compare between the results which obtained from both methods.
Methods:
Paraffin embedded archival materials from 50 cases including three normal resection (non tumoruos) margins, 12 benign colonic lesions and 35 colonic adenocarcinoma were
used . 5mm section were cut and they were stained by anti CD34 antibody Angiogenesis was measured as MVD by two methods : manually by light microscope and by a computer
image analysis system (as fraction area). Then the MVD and fraction area were correlated with different clinicopathological parameters.
Results :
This study demonstrate that there is a statistical difference in MVD and fraction area in both hot spot method and CIAS respectively between benign and malignant tumors . P value
< 0.05 in hot spot method and less than 0.001 in CIAS and there was highly significant correlation between MVD and fraction area with the grade . There was significant increase
in MVD and fraction area from well differentiated to moderately differentiated and to poorly differentiated .There was no significant correlation between MVD and lymph node
involvement by hot spot method but CIAS proved a significant correlation between fraction area and lymph node involvement.Both methods (hot spot and CIAS) proved no
significant correlation with age , sex , size of the tumor , site of the tumor , stage of the tumor and the number of lymph node involverment.

Color Image Compression System by using Block Categorization Based on Spatial Details and DCT Followed by Improved Entropy Encoder

In this paper, a new high-performance lossy compression technique based on DCT is proposed. The image is partitioned into blocks of a size of NxN (where N is multiple of 2), each block is categorized whether it is high frequency (uncorrelated block) or low frequency (correlated block) according to its spatial details, this done by calculating the energy of block by taking the absolute sum of differential pulse code modulation (DPCM) differences between pixels to determine the level of correlation by using a specified threshold value. The image blocks will be scanned and converted into 1D vectors using horizontal scan order. Then, 1D-DCT is applied for each vector to produce transform coefficients. The transformed coefficients will be qua

Immunohistochemical Expression of Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Human colorectal Carcinoma (Clinicopathological study)

Background: Colorectal adenocarcinoma is the most common type of gastrointestinal cancer, with about 150,000 cases each year in the United States and about 56,730 deaths from colorectal cancer risk. In Iraq and according to the Iraqi cancer registry (ICR) reports, the incidence of colorectal carcinoma was 4.55% of whole body malignancy, & it is the seventh cause of death from cancer (ICR 2005). In males, it’s the 7th common cancer while in females it’s the 4th most common cancer. The estrogen and progesterone receptors belong to a super- family of nuclear hormone receptors. These receptor proteins function as transcription factors when they are bound to their respective ligands, these receptors shares a common st

Image Steganography by Using Multiwavelet Transform

Steganography is the art of secret communication. Its purpose is to hide the presence of information, using, for example, images as covers. The frequency domain is well suited for embedding in image, since hiding in this frequency domain coefficients is robust to many attacks. This paper proposed hiding a secret image of size equal to quarter of the cover one. Set Partitioning in Hierarchal Trees (SPIHT) codec is used to code the secret image to achieve security. The proposed method applies Discrete Multiwavelet Transform (DMWT) for cover image. The coded bit stream of the secret image is embedded in the high frequency subbands of the transformed cover one. A scaling factors ? and ? in frequency domain control the quality of the stego
