Evaluating the Diagnostic Utility of Spinal Ultrasound in Neonates With a Simple Sacral Dimple: An Eight‐Year Retrospective Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study retrospectively analysed eight years of neonatal spinal ultrasound data from a major Australian children's hospital to assess the value of imaging for simple sacral dimples. Out of 448 scans, 195 were for an isolated simple dimple, and only two infants (1%) were found to have spinal dysraphism, both with other congenital anomalies.

IMPACT Requests: Evaluating the Effectiveness of IMPACT Education for Emergency Department Referrers to Improve the Quality of CT Requests

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
The use of IMPACT Requests criteria standards to educate Emergency Department referrers improves the quality of clinical information provided in CT chest, abdomen and multi‐trauma requests. The next phase of this project will investigate the impact of this improvement in request quality on the quality of resultant radiology reports.

Occupational burnout in nuclear medicine technologists working in Australia and New Zealand – results of a multi‐national survey

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 25-33, March 2025.
Occupational burnout is associated with negative feelings about the workplace and is often caused by a high workload and a non‐supportive workplace. It is associated with absenteeism, high turnover of staff and decreased patient care. More than half of the New Zealand participants and three quarters of the Australian participants had moderate levels of

Radiographer Preliminary Image Evaluation Accuracy in Interpreting Paediatric Trauma Radiographs

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiographer preliminary image evaluation (PIE) is a patient safety mechanism where radiographers provide a written comment describing potential pathology in radiographs they have acquired. This can assist emergency referrers in making a diagnosis when a radiologist's report is unavailable.

Temperature robustness and viscoelasticity of soy protein‐stabilized palm oil emulsions containing glycerol monostearate and oat fiber

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Most studies of high oil content soy protein‐stabilized emulsions have focused on fluid systems, with limited attention given to the thermo‐mechanical behavior of firm emulsions. This study examined the thermal robustness and mechanical properties of palm oil‐based emulsions stabilized with soy protein isolate, glycerol monostearate

Medial‐pivot design total knee arthroplasty provides higher post‐operative patient satisfaction than posterior‐stabilized design under mechanical alignment

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Numerous studies have compared post‐operative patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) between medial‐pivot design total knee arthroplasty (MP‐TKA) and posterior‐stabilized design TKA (PS‐TKA); however, whether MP‐TKA demonstrates superior outcomes remains controversial.
