Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 3D bone scaffold with osteogenic properties and capable of hardening in vivo is developed. The scaffold is implanted in a ductile state, and a phase transformation of the ceramic induces the stiffening and strengthening of the scaffold in vivo. Abstract Calcium phosphate 3D printing has revolutionized customized bone grafting.

Audit on the use of radiological investigations in the management of rhinosinusitis [PDF]
, 2013 Objectives: The aim of this audit is to establish the cost to the Maltese health system from the use of radiological imaging in managing rhinosinusitis and to identify areas in which these costs can be minimised by following guidelines on the management ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study examines how pore shape and manufacturing‐induced deviations affect the mechanical properties of 3D‐printed lattice materials with constant porosity. Combining µ‐CT analysis, FEM, and compression testing, the authors show that structural imperfections reduce stiffness and strength, while bulk material inhomogeneities probably enhance ...

Carotid atherosclerotic plaques standardised uptake values: software challenges and reproducibility
EJNMMI Research, 2017 Background Positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) carotid standardised uptake values (SUV) of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG) have been proposed as an inflammatory biomarker for determining cerebrovascular diseases such as stroke ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Heterogeniety in electrochemical systems heavily influences device performance and durability. The study shows unique evidence of spatio‐operational heterogeneity in fuel cells via operando neutron and X‐ray tomography. Large variations in membrane thickness and hydration depend upon location and operating conditions, with implications on membrane ...

Digital skeletal radiography [PDF]
Journal of Digital Imaging, 1995 Digital radiography may be defined as an imaging system in which conventional X-rays are used, but in which conventional film-screen combinations are replaced by radiation detectors connected to computer systems to produce the image. Today, digital radiography for examination of the musculoskeletal system is routine in many departments.

A deep learning approach to predict temporal changes of subdural hemorrhage on computed tomography
Scientific ReportsSubdural hemorrhage (SDH) is a critical condition requiring prompt assessment of its progression using computed tomography (CT). This study aimed to develop a deep-learning model to predict temporal changes in SDH by leveraging Hounsfield Units (HU) to ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Materials exist that are useful for gamma scintillation, radiation shielding, neutron‐gamma pulse shape discrimination (PSD), thermal neutron detection, or high refractive index applications. While certain materials have exhibited optimal performance for each of these applications, none achieve multiple functions.
