Design and Evaluation of the LOPES Exoskeleton Robot for Interactive Gait Rehabilitation [PDF]
This paper introduces a newly developed gait rehabilitation device. The device, called LOPES, combines a freely translatable and 2-D-actuated pelvis segment with a leg exoskeleton containing three actuated rotational joints: two at the hip and one at the

Interventional Management for Pelvic Trauma
Traumatic pelvic injuries usually include high-energy crush injuries and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Mortality rates range from 6% to 15% and increase to 36%– 54% in cases of fractures that result in increased pelvic volume.

Correction of megavoltage cone-beam CT images of the pelvic region based on phantom measurements for dose calculation purposes. [PDF]
Megavoltage cone-beam CT (MVCBCT) is an imaging technology that provides a 3D representation of the patient in treatment position. Because it is a form of x-ray tomography, MVCBCT images give information about the attenuation coefficients of the imaged ...
