Measuring muscle quantity and quality is very important because the loss of associated with several adverse effects specifically in older people. Ultrasound a method widely used to measure quality. One problem ultrasound its limited field view, which makes it impossible certain muscles. In this study, we aimed evaluate intra- inter-rater reliability extended-field-of-view (EFOV) for measurement nine muscles limbs trunk.Two examiners took two EFOV images linear probe from each sites. The...
Imaging the lower limb during weight-bearing conditions is essential to acquire advanced functional joint information. The horizontal bed position of CT systems however hinders this process. purpose study was validate and test a device simulate realistic knee motion in dynamic acquisition process acquired images."Orthostatic squats" compared "Horizontal on with loads between 35% 55% body weight (%BW) 20 healthy volunteers. Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC), standard error measurement...
The foramen ovale (FO) of the sphenoid bone is clinically important for interventional treatment trigeminal neuralgia. Percutaneous procedures applied to treat chronic pain condition typically involve cannulation this oval-like located at base skull. Anatomic variations FO have been reported contribute difficulties in structure. Computed tomography (CT) can help surgeon improve accuracy and safety intervention. However, even with navigation technology, unsuccessful has reported. aim...
To quantitatively evaluate the impact of a cardiac acquisition CT mode on motion artifacts in comparison to conventional cine for dynamic musculoskeletal (MSK) imaging.A rotating PMMA phantom with air-filled holes drilled at varying distances from disk center corresponding linear hole speeds 0.75 cm/s, 2.0 and 3.6 cm/s was designed. Dynamic scans were obtained modes while 48°/s scanner. An automated workflow compute Jaccard distance (JD) established quantify degree reconstructed images. JD...
