The successful treatment of vascular anomalies depends on a profound knowledge of their biologic behavior and correct classification. Recently, specific immunohistochemical markers such as erythrocyte-type

glucose transporter protein 1 have been described to differentiate hemangiomas from vascular malformations. This report describes 2 cases PHA-848125 of intramuscular vascular anomalies involving the masseter muscle histologically diagnosed primarily as cavernous hemangiomas and presents the imaging and pathologic findings. Ample surgical excision was performed through an intraoral approach. Immunohistochemistry showed no uptake of glucose transporter protein 1. The literature was reviewed and the designation intramasseteric vascular malformation for this entity is proposed.

“This paper reviews the move from virtual reality exposure-based therapy

to augmented reality exposure-based therapy (ARET). Unlike virtual reality (VR), which entails a complete virtual environment (VE), augmented reality (AR) limits itself to producing certain virtual elements to then merge them into the view of the physical world. Although, the general public may only have become aware of AR in the last few years, AR type applications have been around since beginning of the twentieth century. Since, then, technological developments have enabled an ever increasing level of seamless integration Bucladesine molecular weight of virtual and physical elements into one view. Like VR, AR allows the exposure to stimuli which, due to various reasons, may not be suitable

for real-life scenarios. As such, AR has proven itself to be a medium through which individuals suffering from specific phobia can be exposed “safely” to the ACY-738 research buy object(s) of their fear, without the costs associated with programming complete VEs. Thus, ARET can offer an efficacious alternative to some less advantageous exposure-based therapies. Above and beyond presenting what has been accomplished in ARET, this paper covers some less well-known aspects of the history of AR, raises some ARET related issues, and proposes potential avenues to be followed. These include the type of measures to be used to qualify the user’s experience in an augmented reality environment, the exclusion of certain AR-type functionalities from the definition of AR, as well as the potential use of ARET to treat non-small animal phobias, such as social phobia.”
