A new small-bodied azhdarchoid pterosaur from the Lower Cretaceous of England and its implications for pterosaur anatomy, diversity and phylogeny [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pterosaurs have been known from the Cretaceous sediments of the Isle of Wight (southern England, United Kingdom) since 1870. We describe the three-dimensional pelvic girdle and associated vertebrae of a small near-adult pterodactyloid from ...

Hemangiomas of the Pelvis [PDF]
Hemangiomas of the colon and rectum are rare but often misdiagnosed causes of hematochezia. They are characterized by the clinical triad of recurrent episodes of painless rectal bleeding, multiple ectopic phleboliths on plain radiographs, and cutaneous hemangiomas. The majority of these tumors involve the rectosigmoid region.

The effects of virtual reality game training on trunk to pelvis coupling in a child with cerebral palsy [PDF]
Background: Good control of trunk and pelvic movements is necessary for well controlled leg movements required to perform activities of daily living. The nature of movement coupling between the trunk and pelvis varies and depends on the type of activity.

Abstract The hominin pelvis is a remarkable structure that plays a central role in many critical biological processes, most notably bipedal locomotion and parturition. Here we describe each pelvic element from Sterkfontein and reconstruct the pelvis of the partial skeletons of Sts 14 and StW 431.

The effect of boundary constraints on finite element modelling of the human pelvis [PDF]
The use of finite element analysis (FEA) to investigate the biomechanics of anatomical systems critically relies on the specification of physiologically representative boundary conditions.

Bone-to-bone and implant-to-bone impingement : a novel graphical representation for hip replacement planning [PDF]
Bone-to-bone impingement (BTBI) and implant-to-bone impingement (ITBI) risk assessment is generally performed intra-operatively by surgeons, which is entirely subjective and qualitative, and therefore, lead to sub-optimal results and recurrent ...

The validity and reliability of the exposure index as a metric for estimating the radiation dose to the patient [PDF]
Introduction With the introduction of digital radiography, the feedback between image quality and over-exposure has been partly lost which in some cases has led to a steady increase in dose.
