This survey aims to better define the wishes/needs of the Belgian Anaesthesiologists within the field of mobile technology, namely, what would help improve the daily anaesthesia practice.

There is little epidemiological data in the literature on the therapeutic compliance of epileptic children. Yet it is a fundamental issue in the therapeutic education and balance of this pathology. To obtain more epidemiological precision on the observance of epileptic children and to propose, according to the factors involved, the improvement of practices (therapeutic education ..). Propose an evaluation of the quality of life of their children by a suitable self-questionnaire.

This is a prospective, clinical study. This study is to evaluate the sensitivity of plasma ctDNA methylation haplotypes in detecting local residual or lymph node metastasis.

A randomized prospective study in the evaluation of the long acting GnRH antagonist Degarelix against the classical multidose regime with Ganirelix for LH suppression during the follicular phase of an ovarian stimulation cycle in oocyte donors.

This study aims to investigate the use of alpha-defensin as a diagnostic means to distinguish between acute bacterial and viral infections.

Because the diagnostic criteria for prostate cancer are different in the peripheral and the transition zone, prostate segmentation is needed for any computer-aided diagnosis system aimed at characterizing prostate lesions on magnetic resonance (MR) images. Manual segmentation is time consuming and may differ between radiologists with different expertise. We developed and trained a convolutional neural network algorithm for segmenting the whole prostate, the transition zone and the anterior fibromuscular stroma on T2-weighted images of 787 MRIs from an existing prospective radiological pathological correlation database containing prostate MRI of patients treated by prostatectomy between 2008 and 2014 (CLARA-P database). The purpose of this study is to validate this algorithm on an independent cohort of patients.

Autoimmune encephalitis involve autoantibodies targeting central nervous system, and particularly the synapse or its structure like for LGI1 protein. Anti-LGI1 encephalitis is revealed by an inflammation of the limbic system, with mainly temporal lobe, faciobrachial dystonic or generalized seizures, and cognitive disorders. This disease is rare and its clinical, EEG and radiological characterisation is not sufficiently established. The investigators will evaluate these three aspects for the anti-LGI1 cohort of patients of the National Reference Center of autoimmune encephalitis.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the level of satisfaction, functional vision and quality of life outcome of patients after LASIK surgery.

Recovery of the left ventricular function is variable from one patient to another, thus assessment of cardiac function by measuring left ventricular ejection fraction using echocardiography is the most common in the daily clinical practice. However, this technique has limitation related with its intra- and interobserver variability. A recent technique, 2D speckle tracking for assessing global longitudinal strain, has been introduced to reduce the variability and potentially has a higher accuracy. Speckle tracking is a method which uses two dimensions recording for measuring quantity of movement of myocardium in several segments. Speckle-tracking echocardiography is a current noninvasive ultrasound imaging technique that allows for an objective and quantitative evaluation of global and regional myocardial function independently from the angle of insonation and from cardiac translational movements,

The study population was selected from high grade glioma pateints attending the Department of Clinical Oncology, Assiut University hospital during the period from December 2018 to September 2020, we analyzed human high grade gliomas paraffin block for FLG2 expression
