They are particularly effective in guiding stent placement, vascular catheters, and other surgical tools where precision is paramount. Their high radiographic density ensures they stand out in imaging scans, enabling medical professionals to monitor and adjust placements in real-time. ...
Posterolateral Rabbit Spinal Fusion Study I. Introduction Autologous bone has long been the gold standard for bone graft substitute in spinal fusion procedures. The limited supply and morbidity associated with using autologous graft material led to the development of alternative bone grafting materials. Bioactive glass has a long history of biomedical use and has been shown to facilitate mineral ...
The Structure of Radionuclide Drug Conjugates (RDCs) Similar to ADCs and SMDCs, RDCs are primarily composed of components that facilitate targeted localization, including antibodies or small molecules (ligands) for targeting, linkers, chelators, and radiographic/imaging factors (radioisotopes). The most significant difference between RDCs and other conjugate drugs is the drug ...
Explore how surgeons are using COREX to harvest cancellous bone graft using a minimally invasive ...
According to the 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA Guideline for the Management of Heart Failure, the criteria for diagnosing HFpEF includes: a normal or near-normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≥50%), evidence of cardiac dysfunction by echocardiography (e.g., abnormal left ventricular filling and elevated filling pressures), and elevated natriuretic peptides.[2] The sensitivity, however, varies ...
Hemarthrosis was suspected on examination. Radiographic examination showed a distal radial ulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocation and visible deformity at the wrist joint. ...

The use of computer vision in radiology may have advantages for both patients and medical facilities. However, some worry that machine learning (ML) may one day replace doctors because it can outperform them. The desire for increased efficiency and efficacy in clinical care has been the primary motivating reason behind the development of AI in medical imaging. Recent technological developments, ...
Treatment for shoulder pain Gabi Zeilig, MD, Dept of Neurological Rehabilitation The Chaim Sheba Medical Center, Tel Hashomer, Israel. Purpose of the study: to test the efficacy of the TerraQuant medical device on shoulder pain resulting from inflammation (OA, Tendonitis, Bursitis). Background: TerraQuant is a unique device which combines low level pulse laser therapy (LLLT), pulsating ...
In this case, we see the preoperative radiographs of a 70-year-old, independent woman with medical comorbidities. ...
The infant was intubated within the first 10 minutes of life for apnea. The chest radiograph was consistent with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). A postnatal diagnosis of valvar pulmonary stenosis with supra-systemic RV pressures was confirmed via echocardiogram. ...
In many developing countries throughout the world, infant and child mortality rates are disturbingly high, and acute respiratory infections— in particular pneumonia—are a leading cause of death. As a result, preventing pneumonia is a priority, and the World Health Organization (WHO) and other healthcare institutions are studying a number of vaccines designed to protect against the ...
Dr. Kandace P. McGuire shares how 3D tomosynthesis assisted her during two cases (The Case of the Missing Magseed & Imaging a Bracketed Lesion). In addition, Dr. McGuire discusses how she evaluated the specimens in multiple ways using KUBTEC’s MOZART ...
Intellijoint Surgical is proud to announce a new, optional feature to the Intellijoint KNEE system. It helps provide quantitative measurements of femoral and tibial rotational alignment. Originally released back in 2020, Intellijoint KNEE is the second application following the company’s flagship product, Intellijoint HIP. The Intellijoint team has continued to innovate and expand ...
In this procedure, the pre-operative image acquired is used for landmark planning and the registration is done on the anatomical prominent landmarks of the patient. The fusion of different radiographic images can be done using navigation software, making it simpler for the surgeon to operate. ...
For this reason we studied a cohort of these patients looking for the relationship between SAD and MAC and the clinical outcomes.8 The SAD score was obtained on the baseline angiographic study, whereas for MAC we proposed a new calcium score founded on plain foot radiograph (Figure 2).2,8 Figure 1. A 74-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes and first toe sufferance (F). On plain ...
The patient has had extensive restorative dental treatment and has missing teeth, including number 47; extracted more than four years (note: panoramic radiograph was taken 5+ ...
With the patient’s consent, a peri-apical radiograph of the region was taken. Review of the radiograph revealed an area of radiolucency around the mesial root. ...
The long-term success of dental implant surgery is dependent, in part, on accurate planning and placement of the implant.1 Currently, there are many digital planning systems available to aid the clinician in pre-operative treatment planning, although the main challenge with these planning systems is to accurately transfer the digital plan to the clinical situation. Most systems involve taking a ...
This article will address how using these cutting-edge techniques can help save money, time, and protect assets. The Problem With Radiographic Testing for Austenitic Stainless Steel In many industries, radiographic testing (RT) is still the standard when conducting NDT for austenitic stainless steel. ...
The cornerstone of a safe MRI workplace is repeated and updated MRI safety training and awareness. The number of MRI scanners is increasing, and scanners are also moving toward higher field strengths, both in private practice and at hospitals and institutions all over the world. Consequently, there is a large and increasing crowd of radiology staff and others who need MRI safety education to keep ...
