Stress Analysis on the Ankle Joint during Incline and Decline Standing

Applied Sciences
In daily routine movement, the ankle joint plays a crucial role in stability and mobility, especially when different types of terrain are involved. However, the simple task of standing can become a biomechanical difficulty when performed on a slope since

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.

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.

An Analysis of Radiographers' False Preliminary Image Evaluation Comments in One New Zealand District

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 ...

Proposed Diagnostic Reference Levels for Frequently Performed Paediatric Radiographic Examinations

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Paediatric diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) are weight‐stratified dose levels for typical medical imaging examinations for broadly defined types of equipment. The 75th percentiles of the FRLs across the nine X‐ray units from five centres in Australia were calculated as the proposed Local DRLs (LDRLs).

Radiographer Preliminary Image Evaluation Accuracy in Interpreting Paediatric Trauma Radiographs

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiographer preliminary image evaluation (PIE) is a patient safety mechanism where radiographers provide a written comment describing potential pathology in radiographs they have acquired. This can assist emergency referrers in making a diagnosis when a radiologist's report is unavailable.

Pre‐ and Post‐Interventional Hemodynamic Characterization of the Femoropopliteal Artery Using Vector Flow Imaging in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently revascularized segment in peripheral artery disease (PAD), followed by the iliac segment. Wall shear stress (WSS) is a key local factor implicated in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and restenosis after angioplasty.

Value of 2‐Dimensional Shear‐Wave Elastography in Assessing Tibial Nerve Stiffness in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The morphological alterations of the tibial nerve in patients with diabetes mellitus, both with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), are challenging to differentiate using B‐mode ultrasound. In this study, we assessed the stiffness changes of the tibial nerve by 2‐dimensional shear‐wave elastography (2D‐SWE). Methods We gathered
