The Banff Classification was first developed in 1991 by pathologists, nephrologists, and transplant surgeons to standardize the interpretation of transplant biopsies. It has since evolved through biennial meetings and become the worldwide standard. The classification system aims to improve reproducibility and clinical validation of biopsy results through consensus guidelines. Future meetings will further refine the system based on research findings to best inform clinical practice.
This document proposes 5 scientific research projects and 6 core projects for a Program Project Grant from the NIH to study detection of vulnerable plaque and vulnerable patients. The 5 research projects are: 1) MRI imaging of inflammation and vulnerable plaque in humans and animals; 2) Intravascular thermography to detect inflammation in plaque; 3) Development of new MRI and CT nanoparticle contrast agents; 4) Development of enhanced intravascular and surface MRI coils; 5) Imaging of vulnerable patients using CT and a new calcium scoring system in humans. The 6 core projects provide support in pathology, MRI, microCT, image processing, data analysis, and administration.
1) IMRT and IGRT techniques aim to improve outcomes for head and neck cancer patients by better targeting tumors and reducing toxicity to organs at risk.
2) Early phase trials show dose escalated IMRT is feasible and improves local control for larynx and hypopharynx cancers compared to conventional radiotherapy.
3) Ongoing randomized trials are investigating whether parotid gland-sparing IMRT reduces xerostomia compared to conventional radiotherapy for oropharynx cancers.
4) Novel applications of IMRT include its use for unknown primary cancers to potentially improve local control without high toxicity. Integration of imaging techniques with IMRT may further optimize treatment.

Composite tissue graft summary from 12th Banff Conference on Transplant Pathology from the meeting in Comandatuba-Bahia, Brazil on August 23rd, 2013 http://cybernephrology.ualberta.ca/banff/2013
This document discusses human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene locus and HLA matching in organ transplantation. It contains the following key points:
1. HLA genes encode antigen-presenting molecules that are crucial for the immune system's recognition of self vs. non-self. Close HLA matching between donor and recipient is important for transplant success.
2. Modern HLA typing techniques include DNA-based methods like sequence-specific priming and probing, as well as serological detection methods using lymphocyte microcytotoxicity assays.
3. Achieving an accurate HLA match and minimizing recipient immune response requires histocompatibility testing of HLA genes as well as immunosuppressive therapy after transplantation.
Organ transplantation and the hla system lectureJessica Grigg
The document provides an overview of organ transplantation and the HLA system. It discusses how the HLA system determines compatibility between donor and recipient organs. The HLA system refers to human leukocyte antigens, which are highly polymorphic proteins encoded by genes on chromosome 6. There are three main HLA classes - I, II, and III. Pre-transplant testing includes HLA tissue typing of donors and recipients to identify compatibility at HLA gene loci, as well as blood typing and screening for antibodies. Polymerase chain reaction and gel electrophoresis techniques are used for HLA typing to match donors and recipients. Close familial relationships increase the likelihood of HLA matching between potential donors and recipients.
The Banff Classification of kidney transplant pathology began in 1991 to standardize the interpretation of transplant biopsies. It has since evolved and expanded to other organ transplants through biennial meetings. The classification uses lesion scoring and diagnostic categories but faces challenges in applying expensive new techniques like immunostaining in developing countries. Efforts are needed to share pathology resources and training to make the standards accessible worldwide.

This document discusses unsedated transnasal endoscopy (uTNE) as a potential alternative to conventional sedated endoscopy. uTNE uses slim, transnasal endoscopes to examine the upper GI tract without sedation. It has advantages of being safer, more cost-effective due to lack of sedation costs, and can be performed in an office setting. While it has some limitations like potential nasal discomfort and inability to take standard biopsies, studies show uTNE has comparable diagnostic accuracy and patient tolerability to sedated endoscopy. The document concludes that uTNE has the potential to become a valuable tool for office-based gastroenterologists due to its advantages over conventional sedated endoscopy
Kim Solez 2003 world congress of nephrology in berlinKim Solez ,
This document discusses past meetings of the International Society of Nephrology (ISN) and key figures that attended. It mentions meetings in Berlin, 1995, 1997, and 1999. The 1995 meeting included pancreas classification, glomerulitis scoring, and was the first to use microscopes and CD-ROM. The 1997 meeting merged the Banff and CCTT classifications and established the basis for the current Banff classification. The 1999 meeting covered protocol biopsies, chronic rejection, and viral diseases.
This document discusses the value of continuous cardiac output (CO) monitoring over intermittent CO monitoring. It notes that continuous CO monitoring is better for assessing responses to short-term therapeutic interventions and identifying low or high CO values not evident clinically. While new CO monitoring devices show similar mean values to pulmonary artery catheters, they often trend differently in response to therapy. Continuous monitoring of other parameters like urinary output, blood glucose and lactate can also provide useful insights. Overall, maximizing information from real-time continuous physiological monitoring should be recognized as important as physical examination in medicine.

Anesthesia for tracheoesophageal fistulaHazem Sharaf
Anesthesia is required for repair of tracheo-esophageal fistula (TEF) in a newborn infant. The infant requires careful preoperative evaluation and stabilization. During surgery, maintaining adequate ventilation and oxygenation while minimizing airway pressures is crucial due to the risk of gastric insufflation and aspiration. Postoperative ventilation may be needed for several days due to lung issues and the repaired tracheal wall. Careful anesthetic management is needed for a successful outcome in this high-risk surgery.
This document reviews endoscopic tools for diagnosing Barrett's esophagus (BE) and its progression. It discusses current diagnostic methods like white light endoscopy and biopsy, which have issues like sampling errors and costs. Newer optical technologies aim to improve diagnosis by identifying subtle mucosal changes to predict histology and enable real-time "optical biopsy". Several imaging techniques are presented that can diagnose GI pathology in selected situations, though most are only used in clinical trials or specialized hospitals currently. Optical imaging represents progress in diagnostic capabilities and a shift to endoscopy directly guiding patient management.
Renal transplantation involves selecting recipients by diagnosing their primary kidney disease, ruling out active infections or malignancies, and assessing operative risks. Suitable living donors undergo evaluation with CT angiography and surgery to remove a kidney, with efforts to minimize warm ischemia time and preserve vessel length. The donated kidney is preserved through simple cold storage before transplantation via vascular anastomosis and ureter reimplantation during the recipient's operation. Lifelong immunosuppression is required post-operatively to prevent rejection, while infection risk remains.

This document summarizes a seminar presentation on deep venous thrombosis (DVT). It defines DVT, discusses its incidence in India compared to Western populations, and outlines Virchow's triad of factors that can lead to DVT - venous stasis, endothelial damage, and hypercoagulability. Diagnostic tests like Doppler ultrasound, MRI, and D-dimer are covered. Treatment options include anticoagulation with heparin or warfarin, thrombolytic therapy, and surgery in some cases. Compression stockings and duration of treatment are also discussed.
This webinar is organized by MyICID and Institute for Clinical Research (ICR), NIH, Ministry of Health in conjunction with Neglected Tropical Disease Day 2022.

This document provides information on endoscopic gastrointestinal biopsies and their interpretation. It discusses endoscopy techniques and tools used to visualize the gastrointestinal tract and obtain biopsies. Key points include types of endoscopes, handling of biopsy specimens, processing for histological examination, common indications for endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract, and histological findings and interpretations for conditions of the esophagus and stomach, including chronic gastritis, Helicobacter pylori infection, Barrett's esophagus, and polypoid lesions.
The document discusses colposcopy, which uses a low-power microscope to examine the cervix. It describes cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grades 1-3 and squamous intraepithelial lesions. The colposcope allows inspection of the cervix before and after acetic acid application using criteria like vascular patterns, whiteness, and iodine negativity to evaluate lesions. Colposcopy is used to screen for cervical cancer, evaluate abnormal pap smears, and follow up on CIN treatment. Steps involve inspection, biopsies if needed, and documentation. Advantages include aiding diagnosis and follow up while disadvantages include inadequacy for endocervical lesions.
This document provides an overview of peri-operative assessments and procedures for hemodialysis access. It discusses pre-op assessment focusing on vital signs, labs, and access site. It also describes common fistula types and graft materials. The thrombectomy protocol is outlined proceeding from thrombolysis to angioplasty and revision if needed. Finally, the post-op exam process is summarized involving wound and flow evaluation through visual, tactile and auditory assessment of the access site.
Otosclerosis is a metabolic bone disease that causes abnormal bone growth in the ossicles of the middle ear, commonly fixing the stapes bone. It most often presents between ages 15-45 and risk factors include family history and metabolic abnormalities. Symptoms include hearing loss and tinnitus. Diagnosis involves audiometry, otoscopic examination, and CT scan. Treatment options include stapedotomy or stapedectomy surgery as well as hearing aids or fluoride therapy for non-surgical candidates or those who decline surgery. The goal of treatment is to restore hearing by improving sound conduction through the middle ear.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
