They are small, slow-growing lesions, usuallyasymptomatic and detected in young adults. This tumors can affect the paranasal sinuses and are often diagnosed with incidental findings through imaging tests. Osteomas are typically restricted to the craniofacial skeleton and rarely foundin other bones. Osteoma of the gnathic bones may be peripheral or endosteal.The osteomas’ etiology is controversial and still unknown. It is more frequent in the frontal sinuses, corresponding to 57% of the paranasal sinuses osteomas, followed by the ethmoidal and maxillary sinuses. Computed Tomography (CT) is the gold standard to assess the location, extent, and aspects of the injury. The objective of this paper is to present a case report of osteoma diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) scan, indicating the importance of the technology of imaging in the medicine diagnostic.","PeriodicalId":277735,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF BIOENGINEERING OF AND TECCHNOLOGY applied to Health","volume":"129 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133932247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used virtual libraries, such as PubMed, LILACS, National Health Institute (NHI) and the Food Drug Administration (FDA) to conduct the review. Cluster analysis and correlation were developed using the Tanimoto coefficient (TC) of 0.7 using the modeling tool ChemMine Tools from databases (PubChem, DailyMed, DrugBank, Drug @ FDA). The results pointed fifteen molecules in the pharmaceutical form of liposome for the oncological clinic. Of these, 13 are classified by size into small-molecules and were analyzed by computational statistical modeling. Of these, only 4 were approved for use by the FDA, and 9 are in phases of research by the pharmaceutical industry as liposomal formulations. Essential differences in physical-chemical properties and molecules structure were observed, indicating original proposal in the development of liposomal as an anticancer drugs.","PeriodicalId":277735,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF BIOENGINEERING OF AND TECCHNOLOGY applied to Health","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128744678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most of them are based on comparing of antemortem and postmortem data available. Although the technique of fingerprinting is considered more accurate in many cases, it cannot be used when the bodies are mutilated, decomposed, burned, or fragmented. This article aims to compare the metric values obtained by Galvão (1994) and Saliba (2001) to differentiate male and female through dry skulls, using the measurement of the Radiocef Studio 2 Program. It was used 16 teleradiographs (11 females and 5 males). The linear measurements used in this article were: 1. The bodies stature of the mandible; and 2. Distance Nasium-Front Nasal Spine. Several radiological techniques are used to aid the human identification process for determining sex, ethnic group, and age. The analyses of X-rays and Computer Tomography (CT) scans, antemortem and postmortem, have been an important tool for human identification in forensic dentistry, especially with the refinement of techniques acquired with the advancement of radiology and CT scans. We concluded that the knowledge of the best method by forensic dentists with a careful application of the technique and report’s interpretation is essential to fulfilling the necessary characteristics for a successful identification of sex using skull measures.","PeriodicalId":277735,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF BIOENGINEERING OF AND TECCHNOLOGY applied to Health","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128273751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
