Radiographer Preliminary Image Evaluation Accuracy in Interpreting Paediatric Trauma Radiographs

open access: yesJournal 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.

Development of Artificial Intelligence‐Assisted Lumbar and Femoral BMD Estimation System Using Anteroposterior Lumbar X‐Ray Images

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The early detection and treatment of osteoporosis and prevention of fragility fractures are urgent societal issues. We developed an artificial intelligence‐assisted diagnostic system that estimated not only lumbar bone mineral density but also femoral bone mineral density from anteroposterior lumbar X‐ray images.

Comparison of External Rotation Torque of Short External Rotator Muscles in Hip Flexion Position

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
Preserving the short external rotator muscles of the hip helps prevent dislocation after total hip arthroplasty, but it's unclear which muscles are most critical. This study quantified the external rotation torque in cadaveric hips and found that the obturator externus provides the highest torque during deep hip flexion, where dislocations often occur.
