A 54-year-old man presented with rectal pain and bleeding secondary to ulcerated, necrotic rectal and cecal masses that resembled colorectal carcinoma upon colonoscopy. These masses were later determined to be benign amebomas caused by invasive Entamoeba histolytica, which regressed completely with medical therapy. In Western countries, the occurrence of invasive protozoan infection with formation of amebomas is very rare and can mistakenly masquerade as a neoplasm. Not surprisingly, there have been very few cases reported of this clinical entity within the United States. Moreover, we report a patient that had an extremely rare occurrence of two synchronous lesions, one involving the rectum and the other situated in the cecum. We review the current literature on the pathogenesis of invasive E. Histolytica infection and ameboma formation, as well as management of this rare disease entity at a western medical center.

提出了一种新的参量式变形模板方法 ,用于检测带有缺陷和噪声的圆。根据圆的几何形状特性和梯度信息定义了模板的能量函数。然后通过动态调整模板的参量使能量函数和图像进行交互以把能量函数最大化。根据能量函数的定义 ,在其取得最大值时的参量即为所检测圆的位置参量。为了提高匹配运算速度 ,先求出被检测圆的圆心和半径的估计值 ,然后给出缩小了的搜索区域。在此搜索区域内采用贪婪优化的算法得到最终检测结果。实验结果
