Effect of Body Configuration on Perturbation Resistance Across Arboreal Lizard Species
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Animals that inhabit high‐risk habitats often exhibit morphological and behavioral adaptations to contend with environmental challenges. In arboreal (tree‐based) habitats, such adaptations can include corrective behaviors, such as modification of body‐limb angles, to avoid dislodgement by perturbations.

Image Reject Patterns in Computed Radiography: Insights From a Ghanaian Radiology Department
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study examined image rejection patterns in a computed radiography system at a tertiary hospital in Ghana. An overall reject rate of 16.5% was observed, exceeding recommended thresholds, with anatomical cut‐off and positioning errors being the most common causes.

Radiation Dose and Risk in the Radiological Investigation of Suspected Non‐Accidental Injury (NAI)
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study is a retrospective analysis of 362 skeletal surveys performed over a 5‐year period for children under 5 years of age for suspected non‐accidental injury. We present effective dose data and the associated risks of radiation exposure for initial and follow‐up examinations.

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.Preliminary image evaluation (PIE) comment errors were evaluated for common errors. These include missed avulsion fractures in the finger, hand, and wrist, while accessory bones in the feet and ankle were mistaken for abnormalities. Identifying these errors provides guidance for ongoing, regular, targeted training to help improve PIE accuracy rates ...
