Lung cancer presenting as a metastasis to the carpal bones: a case report
IntroductionA first metastasis to the hand is extremely rare. Usually, an acrometastasis is a sign of very advanced disease, with the presence of previous multiple metastases elsewhere.

Automatic analysis of magnetic resonance (MR) sequences for the diagnosis of ligament lesions [PDF]
To date the diagnosis of carpal instabilities due to ligament lesions relies upon a qualitative examination of the patient's wrist. This paper presents a novel system where sequences of magnetic resonance images (MRI) are automatically analysed to ...

Accuracy and repeatability of wrist joint angles in boxing using an electromagnetic tracking system [PDF]
© 2019, The Author(s). The hand-wrist region is reported as the most common injury site in boxing. Boxers are at risk due to the amount of wrist motions when impacting training equipment or their opponents, yet we know relatively little about these ...

A skin‐conformal wearable device based on laser‐induced graphene is developed for continuous strain measurement across the circumference of the forearm for gesture recognition and hand‐tracking applications. Post material optimization, the strain sensor array is integrated with a wearable wireless readout circuit for real‐time control of a robotic arm,

Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,

Different evolutionary pathways underlie the morphology of wrist bones in hominoids [PDF]
BACKGROUND The hominoid wrist has been a focus of numerous morphological analyses that aim to better understand long-standing questions about the evolution of human and hominoid hand use.

ABSTRACT Apert syndrome is a recognizable craniofacial condition characterized by craniosynostosis, hypertelorism, exorbitism, midface hypoplasia, and complex symmetrical bony and cutaneous ‘mitten’ syndactyly of all four limbs. Around 98% of affected patients have one of two heterozygous missense variants in the FGFR2 gene, encoding either p ...

MRI diagnosis of carpal boss and comparison with radiography [PDF]
Background: A carpal boss is a potentially painful bony mass in the region of the second or third carpometacarpal joint. The combination of clinical examination and radiography is usually sufficient for the diagnosis.

Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Whole‐bone shape of hominoid manual proximal phalanges
Abstract Functional morphologists have long noted that skeletal adaptations in primate phalanges reflect locomotor behavior. While most studies have successfully used two‐dimensional measurements to quantify general features of phalanx shape, a whole‐bone three‐dimensional analysis may better capture more subtle aspects of phalanx morphology that have ...
