Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a complex three-dimensional deformity of the spine characterized by deformities in sagittal, coronal, and axial planes. Spinal fusion using pedicle screw instrumentation widely used method for surgical correction severe (coronal deformity, Cobb angle > 45°) adolescent curves. Understanding anatomic difference pedicles patients with essential to reduce risk neurovascular or visceral injury through misplacement.To use CT scans (1) analyze anatomy thoracic...
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) has been shown to be able distinguish both ventilation and perfusion. With adequate filtering the regional distributions of perfusion their relationships could analysed. Several methods separation have suggested previously, including breath holding, electrocardiograph (ECG) gating frequency filtering. Many these require interventions inappropriate in a clinical setting. This study therefore aims extend previously reported technique spontaneously...
Three-dimensional (3D) computer modelling and 3D printing technology is approaching a commodity level in many areas, including medical applications. models are used wide variety of these applications, such as preoperative planning patient-specific customized implants orthopedics that treat complex fractures correct pathologic anatomy. This article provides detailed description the processes involved creating anatomic model. In addition, various steps associated with imaging injuries or...
Aims Although suctioning is a standard airway maintenance procedure, there are significant associated risks, such as loss of lung volume due to high negative suction pressures. This study aims assess the extent and duration change in end‐expiratory level ( EEL ) resulting from endotracheal tube ETT examine relationship between regional ventilation ventilated preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome. Methods A prospective observational clinical effect on 20 non‐muscle‐relaxed...
This study contrasts the ontogeny of iliac crest apophysis using conventional radiography and multislice computed tomography (MSCT), providing probabilistic information for age estimation modern Australian subadults. Retrospective abdominopelvic MSCT data acquired from 524 individuals aged 7-25 surveillance radiographs adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients included in Paediatric Spine Research Group Progression Study (n = 531) were assessed. Ossification scoring pseudo-radiographs...
Anterior and posterior vertebral body heights were measured from sequential magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients healthy controls.To measure changes in height over time during progression to assess how discrepancies change growth.Relative anterior overgrowth has been proposed as a potential driver for AIS initiation progression. This theory proposes that the column grows faster, slower, when compared with controls. There is disagreement...
Three-dimensional (3D) printing has been used in complex spinal surgical planning since the 1990s and is now increasingly utilized to produce guides, templates, more recently customized implants. Surgeons report beneficial impacts using 3D-printed biomodels as a preoperative aid it generally provides for better representation of patient’s anatomy than on-screen viewing computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Furthermore, proven be very training, explaining deformity plans...
Objectives Single-use commercial surface fiducial markers are used in clinical imaging for a variety of applications. The current study sought to find new, reliably visible, easily sourced and inexpensive marker alternative use with MRI. Design Five commonly requested MRI sequences were determined (three-dimensional (3D) T1-weighted, T1 coronal, 3D T2-weighted, T2 fat suppressed, proton density), examine the visibility 18 items (including marker). Setting Clinical 3T scanner an Australian...
There are no estimates of the heritability phenotypic udder traits in suckler sheep, which produce meat lambs, and whether these associated with resilience to mastitis. Mastitis is a common disease damages mammary gland reduces productivity. The aims this study were investigate feasibility collecting phenotypes, their association mastitis ewes. Udder teat conformation, lesions, intramammary masses (IMM) litter size recorded from 10 Texel flocks Great Britain between 2012 2014; 968 records...
Study Design. Biomechanical experiment. Objective. The aims of the present study were to test effect fascial tension on lumbar segmental axial rotation and lateral flexion angle attachment. Summary Background Data. Tension in middle layer fascia has been demonstrated affect mechanical properties extension neutral zone. has, however, not investigated. Methods. Seven unembalmed spines divided into segments mounted for testing. A 6 degree-of-freedom robotic testing facility was used displace...
Multiple muscular ventricular septal defects (VSDs) are often difficult to visualize and access surgically. The main challenge is identifying all intraoperatively, without which residual inevitable. Patient-specific three-dimensional (3D) printed models can help accurately demonstrate intracardiac anatomy. We present our experience using this technology surgically close multiple VSDs .
