Anatomical Modelling of the Pregnant Radiotherapy Patient [PDF]

, 2015
This study aimed to take existing anatomical models of pregnant women, currently used for radiation protection and nuclear medicine dose calculations, and adapt them for use in the calculation of fetal dose from external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). The models investigated were ‘KATJA’, which was provided as an MCNPX geometry file, and ‘RPI-P6’, which was

Disrupted anatomic networks in the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

, 2016
The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is an uncommon genetic disorder with an increased risk of psychosis. Although the neural substrates of psychosis and schizophrenia are not well understood, aberrations in cortical networks represent intriguing ...

A quantitative biomechanical study of positive buttress techniques for femoral neck fractures: a finite element analysis

Chinese Medical Journal, 2019
. Background:. Refractory femoral neck fractures cannot be anatomically reduced by closed traction reduction which may affect fracture healing. We evaluated the biomechanical effects of positive, negative, and anatomic reduction of various degrees of ...
