Optimising Beam Geometry in Orthopaedic X‐Rays: A Phantom Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Antoni Cieszynski, a 19th‐century Polish dentist, developed the bisecting angle technique in 1907, which uses isometry rules to improve anatomical imaging accuracy in dentistry. Our experiment tested this technique on the radius bone at various angles, demonstrating that it significantly reduced elongation and distortion compared to traditional methods,

Advanced Testing Protocols Simulate Failures and Validate Antioxidant Polyethylene in Ankle Implants

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Total ankle replacement (TAR) has become an effective treatment for end‐stage ankle osteoarthritis. Multiple factors, including patient characteristics, surgical technique, alignment, and bearing surfaces, influence TAR survivorship. Polyethylene (PE) fatigue is a key consideration in improving outcomes.

Murine Supraspinatus Tendons Demonstrate Aging‐Related Changes in Multiscale Mechanics, Structure, and Gene Expression

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rotator cuff disorders are common in the aging population, often leading to pain, disability, and reduced quality of life. Age‐associated changes can occur disproportionately in regions of high mechanical stress, such as the insertion site of the supraspinatus tendon, leading to increased injury rates and tendinopathies.
