Computer assisted total knee arthroplasty using patient specific templates [PDF]
, 2006 Current techniques used for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) rely on conventional instrumentation (CI) systems that violate the intramedullary canals. The accuracy of these systems is questionable, and set up and assembly of their numerous pieces is time ...

Rectal dosimetry in intracavitary applications of cervix carcinoma: Comparison of two methods [PDF]
Archive of Oncology, 2002 BACKGROUND: Brachytherapy of cervix carcinoma often results in high doses to surrounding structures, such as rectum and bladder. Therefore, these organs should be closely monitored.
