Augmentation of Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair Using Enthesis Interpositional Allograft and Minced Autologous Subacromial Bursa

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Multiple strategies for rotator cuff augmentation have been developed to promote tendon healing and decrease retear rates. Previously published techniques and clinical studies have primarily emphasized biologic adjuncts intended to alter the local healing environment at the repair site or structural reinforcement with grafts.

Bronchoscopic Delivery of Lipiodol as a Fiducial Marker in Lung Tumors Before Radiotherapy [PDF]

, 2014
Definitive radiotherapy treatment of thoracic tumors may be hampered by poor tumor visualization on radiological imaging and the effects of tumor motion. Fiducial markers act to enhance tumor visualization and tracking. Traditional solid fiducial markers,

The role of a radiopaque peri-rectal hydrogel spacer in aiding accurate daily image-guidance for prostate stereotactic radiotherapy

Frontiers in Oncology
IntroductionPrecise patient positioning with image guidance (IGRT) is essential for safe prostate radiotherapy. We present the first report of utilizing a CT-visible hydrogel spacer, used to decrease rectal radiation dose, as a surrogate fiducial marker ...

Fractal Markers: A New Approach for Long-Range Marker Pose Estimation Under Occlusion

IEEE Access, 2019
Squared fiducial markers are a powerful tool for camera pose estimation in applications such as robots, unmanned vehicles and augmented reality. The four corners of a single marker are enough to estimate the pose of a calibrated camera.

Validated Signalling: How Ownership Structure Enhances ESG Disclosure Credibility in an Emerging Market

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While signalling theory predicts that ESG disclosure reduces information asymmetry and supports forward‐looking firm valuation, this relationship remains contested in emerging markets with concentrated ownership. Using a panel of 84 Turkish listed firms over 2014–2024 (924 firm‐years) and two‐step system GMM, we examine whether business groups,
