Casimir interaction of rod-like particles in a two-dimensional critical system [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 94, 032130 (2016), 2016 We consider the fluctuation-induced interaction of two thin, rod-like particles or "needles" immersed in a two-dimensional critical fluid of Ising symmetry right at the critical point. Conformally mapping the plane containing the needles onto a simpler geometry in which the stress tensor is known, we analyze the force and torque between needles of ...

Concepts for augmented reality visualisation to support needle guidance inside the MRI
Healthcare Technology Letters, 2018 During MRI-guided interventions, navigation support is often separated from the operating field on displays, which impedes the interpretation of positions and orientations of instruments inside the patient's body as well as hand–eye coordination.

The Effect of Corticosteroid Injection with and Without Dry Needling on Pain Intensity in Patients with Tennis Elbow: A Randomized Clinical Trial Study [PDF]
مجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2022 Background: Tennis elbow is a condition in which pain is felt in the lateral part of the elbow due to the excessive extension of the wrist. This study aimed to compare the local injection effect of the corticosteroid alone vs corticosteroid alongside dry

Recovery kinetics of winter stressed conifers: The effects of growth light environment, extent of the season, and species. [PDF]
, 2010 Evergreens undergo a dramatic reduction in their maximal photochemical efficiency (measured as Fv/Fm) during winter, which is largely due to increases in a sustained form of thermal energy dissipation.
