The primary aim of this study was to verify if shear-wave elastography (SWE) can be used diagnose ulnar neuropathy at the elbow (UNE). secondary objective compare cross-sectional areas (CSA) nerve in cubital tunnel and determine a cut-off value for parameter accurately identifying persons with UNE. included 34 patients UNE (mean age, 59.35 years) 38 healthy controls 57.42 years). Each participant subjected SWE three levels: (CT) distal arm (DA) mid-arm (MA). CSA estimated by means...

Background: Because of its subjective character, the term “breast attractiveness” is poorly defined and thus reliable standardized assessment can be particularly challenging. objective analysis observer’s gaze pattern, eye-tracking technology may provide a better insight into visual perception breast aesthetics symmetry. Methods: One hundred observers, 50 women men, assessed symmetry eight types female breasts displayed as digital images on frontal, lateral, oblique projections. The pattern...

Abstract Purpose The work presents outcomes of simulated maxillofacial skeleton osteotomies supported with cutting guides or one two AR‐based intraoperative navigation systems. Material and Methods series a guide, simple AR (sAR) navigated (nAR) module were carried out on 15 (five per each method) skull models according to the virtual surgical plan (VSP). Each method was used support 40 involving upper jaw orbital region (16 model). Postoperative computed tomography scans fused VSP analyse...

Objective To analyze a novel navigation system utilizing augmented reality (AR) as supporting method for fibula free flap (FFF) harvest and fabrication. Methods A total of 126 simulated osteotomies supported with cutting guide or one two AR‐based intraoperative modules—simple AR (sAR) navigated (nAR)—were carried out on 18 identical models the (42 per method). After fusing postoperative computed tomography scans operated fibulas virtual surgical plan based preoperative images, objective...

The demand for lip-redefining procedures has been rising in recent years, thus creating the need reliable and detailed reference sources on aesthetic female lips. This study investigates morphology of lower third face, including lips jawline, attractive young Caucasian females.

Primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease that mainly affects the salivary and lacrimal glands, leading to their progressive destruction.The primary aim of this study was verify whether shear wave elastography (SWE) glands can be used differentiate patients with pSS from healthy controls. The secondary assess there are any associations between SWE values, results other ocular tests included in diagnosis (the Schirmer test, staining score [OSS]), subjective symptoms eye...

Abstract Background Little is known about breast cancer survivors’ perception of attractiveness. A better understanding this subjective concept could contribute to the improvement patient-reported outcomes after reconstructive surgeries and facilitate development new methods for assessing reconstruction outcomes. Objectives The aim eye-tracking (ET)-based study was verify whether mastectomy altered women’s visual aesthetics symmetry. Methods group 30 women unilateral healthy controls...

Background: Breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed aesthetic surgery procedures. Yet, few reports in literature analyze individual surgeon experiences with a unified surgical method on large group patients. This study aimed to single surgeon’s complications rate and experience Akademikliniken mammaplasty from beginning his career. Methods: A retrospective outcome analysis all patients (n = 1646) who underwent breast between 2009 2021 by was conducted. Complications...

Our goal was to determine whether N-acetylcysteine (NAC) administered the tumescent solution can reduce oxidative stress and increase autologous fat graft (AFG) viability.The study included 15 women with a mean age of 31.8 years (range 23-39 years) who underwent breast asymmetry correction AFG harvested from both thighs. One thigh infiltrated standard fluid (control graft) other NAC-enriched (NAC-treated graft). Each participant had MRI imaging before 6 months after procedure. Also, adipose...

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and verify an intraoperative module for supporting navigated biopsy procedures using optical see-through head-mounted display (HMD). Methods: Biopsy procedure including entry endpoints needle insertion planned preoperatively having regard the resection region segmentation safety margin definition. were performed by two users navigation on a specially prepared brain phantom. Two visualization techniques compared: accurate augmented reality...

No objective method for the evaluation of facial aesthetic procedures has been proposed thus far. The authors hypothesized that shear wave elastography may be an appropriate to evaluate outcomes some treatments.The aim study was compare elastographic parameters skin, subcutaneous fat, and superficial musculoaponeurotic system before high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment 60 days after this procedure.The included 57 female patients aged 51.5 ± 7.3 years. Shear skin performed procedure 2...

Abstract Background The lips play a significant role in determining the aesthetic perception of human face. However, there are little data on perioral region morphometry attractive males. Objectives This study investigates morphology lower third face, including and jawline, young Caucasian Methods A complex semi-automatic photogrammetric analysis faces male photo models (n = 300) race, aged 18 to 39 years, was performed. Linear, angular, surface area parameters were evaluated. In addition,...
