How does a cadaver model work for testing ultrasound diagnostic capability for rheumatic-like tendon damage? [PDF]
To establish whether a cadaver model can serve as an effective surrogate for the detection of tendon damage characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In addition, we evaluated intraobserver and interobserver agreement in the grading of RA-like tendon ...

C5 ventral ramus block for clavicle surgery: How low concerning the volume can we go?
Background and Aims: Clinical case reports mention 3-5 ml of local anesthetic (LA) at the cervical root 5 (C5) for surgical anesthesia essential for clavicle surgeries with reasonable success. A volume of 5 ml LA has been shown to cause hemidiaphragmatic

Quantifying Cross-scatter Contamination in Biplane Fluoroscopy Motion Analysis Systems [PDF]
Biplane fluoroscopy is used for dynamic in vivo three-dimensional motion analysis of various joints of the body. Cross-scatter between the two fluoroscopy systems may limit tracking accuracy. This study measured the magnitude and effects of cross-scatter

A cadaveric study of anatomical variations of the radial nerve and their clinical significance [PDF]
Background/Aim. The radial nerve (RN) is the largest terminal branch of the posterior cord of the brachial plexus. Upon leaving the axilla, the RN moves to the posterior compartment of the arm, where it makes close contact with the humerus.

Accuracy of a magnetic resonance imaging‐based 3D printed stereotactic brain biopsy device in dogs [PDF]
Background: Brain biopsy of intracranial lesions is often necessary to determine specific therapy. The cost of the currently used stereotactic rigid frame and optical tracking systems for brain biopsy in dogs is often prohibitive or accuracy is not ...
