SpartanAnatomy.org: Evaluating a new interactive neuroradiology tool for early medical education

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy through the lens of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers medical students a strong foundation for success. However, many existing MRI learning resources lack interactivity and user‐friendliness, require payment, or include an overwhelming number of labeled structures.

A physiological controller for turbodynamic ventricular assist devices based on a measurement of the left ventricular volume

, 2013
The current article presents a novel physiological control algorithm for ventricular assist devices (VADs), which is inspired by the preload recruitable stroke work. This controller adapts the hydraulic power output of the VAD to the end-diastolic volume

Immersive virtual reality as a teaching tool in neuroanatomy: A scoping review

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Basic core courses in various undergraduate programs, such as neuroanatomy, pose a challenge for students due to the large volume and complexity of the content. In this context, educational technologies such as immersive virtual reality (IVR), which allow students to actively interact with learning materials, offer a complementary pedagogical ...

The hows and whys—A new teaching model for anatomy learning supported by customized 3D printed models

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The advent of three‐dimensional (3D) printing technology has enabled educators to design customized 3D printed models (3DPMs), but the current literature shows conflicting evidence regarding the impact of 3DPMs on students' knowledge acquisition.

Evaluation of physiological control systems for rotary left ventricular assist devices: An in-vitro study

, 2016
Rotary left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) show weaker response to preload and greater response to afterload than the native heart. This may lead to ventricular suction or pulmonary congestion, which can be deleterious to the patient’s recovery.

Photogrammetric Reconstruction of 3D Human Anatomical Structures and Augmented Reality via Smartphone Technology

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limited access to cadavers necessitates the availability of digital resources for anatomy education. Smartphone‐based photogrammetry offers a promising solution for creating three‐dimensional (3D) and augmented reality (AR) models. This study compared two mobile photogrammetry applications (Qlone and Polycam) that have been used in modern ...

Accuracy of Freehand Versus Navigated External Ventricular Drainage and Comparison of Insertion Trajectories: A Systematic Review and Meta Analysis

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The external ventricular drainage is a routine neurosurgical procedure, most often performed by cannulating the frontal horn of the lateral ventricle. Various entry points and insertion trajectory definitions have been proposed; nevertheless, it remains unclear which approach yields the highest success rate.
