Spontaneous elbow hemarthrosis identified by point-of-care ultrasound [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Emergency Medicine, 2017 Traumatic or spontaneous hemarthroses are an important cause of joint effusions, and can complicate innate or acquired coagulopathies. The elbow is an unusual location for a spontaneous hemarthrosis; we describe a previously unreported case of warfarin ...

Leidenfrost temperature: surface thermal diffusivity and effusivity effect [PDF]
, 2019 Droplet impact on hot surfaces results in either droplet-surface contact or droplet-surface non-contact, i.e., the Leidenfrost state. The Leidenfrost droplet is levitated upon its vapor, deteriorating the heat transfer. The Leidenfrost temperature depends on the thermal properties of the surface, which are usually characterized by two parameters: the ...

Deep Learning-based Segmentation of Pleural Effusion From Ultrasound Using Coordinate Convolutions [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 In many low-to-middle income (LMIC) countries, ultrasound is used for assessment of pleural effusion. Typically, the extent of the effusion is manually measured by a sonographer, leading to significant intra-/inter-observer variability. In this work, we investigate the use of deep learning (DL) to automate the process of pleural effusion segmentation ...

Frequency Dependent Specific Heat from Thermal Effusion in Spherical Geometry [PDF]
Physical Review E, 81, 061505, 2010, 2008 We present a novel method of measuring the frequency dependent specific heat at the glass transition applied to 5-polyphenyl-4-ether. The method employs thermal waves effusing radially out from the surface of a spherical thermistor that acts as both a heat generator and thermometer.

Metatarsophalangeal joint pain in psoriatic arthritis: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
, 2013 Methods. Thirty-four consecutive patients with PsA (mean age 45.3 years, 65% female, mean disease duration 9.9 years) and 22 control participants (mean age 37.9 years, 64% female) underwent clinical and US examination to determine the presence of pain ...

$^{23}$Ne Production at SARAF-I [PDF]
, 2020 In this article, we present a measurement of flow rate, yield and effusion time of a $^{23}$Ne production and transport system. We used an accelerator-driven Li(d,n) neutron source to produce neutrons up to 20 MeV. The radioactive atoms were produced by a $^{23}$Na(n,p) reaction at a NaCl target.

Risk of temporomandibular joint effusion related to magnetic resonance imaging signs of disc displacement [PDF]
, 2009 Background: It has been suggested that TMJ effusion may represent an inflammatory response to a dysfunctional disc-condyle relationship. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether the status of the disc in the temporomandibular joint, as ...

Coccidiomycosis infection of the patella mimicking a neoplasm - two case reports. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundCoccidioidomycosis is an endemic fungal infection in the southwestern of United States. Most infections are asymptomatic or manifest with mild respiratory complaints. Rare cases may cause extrapulmonary or disseminated disease.
