Mapping the Landscape of Over‐Scanning in CT Imaging: A Scoping Review

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Over‐scanning in CT is highly prevalent and contributes to unnecessary radiation exposure, with notable impact on radiosensitive organs. Standardised protocols and AI‐assisted planning show strong potential to optimise scan range and reduce excess dose.

When the Number Matters: Contextualising Australian Reference Values for 99ᵐTc‐Pertechnetate Thyroid Uptake

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Are the historical 1%–4% thyroid uptake reference values still valid in modern practice? This editorial examines why contemporary Australian and international data suggest otherwise and situates the new reference range reported by Wornes (https://doi.org/10.1002/jmrs.70078) and colleagues within the broader international literature.

Consuming heat‐inactivated Lactiplantibacillus pentosus ONRICb0240‐containing postbiotics reduces gingival inflammation: A double‐blind randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal disease affects people globally, requiring approaches to halt progression at the gingivitis stage. Researchers have investigated live probiotics; we studied the effect of a heat‐inactivated preparation (postbiotic) of Lactiplantibacillus pentosus ONRICb0240 on gingival inflammation.

EHR‐Integrated Synoptic Operative Reporting for Head and Neck Oncologic Surgery

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
EHR‐integrated synoptic operative templates for head and neck oncologic surgery was developed and implemented at a tertiary academic cancer center. Departmental adherence rose from 49% to nearly 80% over 6 months, and 94.5% of reviewed cases met targets for complete, internally consistent documentation. The resulting structured data dictionary provides

Melanopsin‐Mediated Post‐Illumination Pupillary Response in Idiopathic Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep Behavior Disorder and Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To conduct a case–control study to investigate melanopsin‐mediated post‐illumination pupillary response (PIPR) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), video‐polysomnography‐confirmed isolated/idiopathic rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD), and age‐matched healthy controls (HC). Methods PIPR was measured at 6 s after

Enhanced precision in stone localization and intraoral removal in sialolithiasis: the role of preoperative computer tomographic scanning in surgical planning

Head & Face Medicine
Background The precise localization of stones within the submandibular duct is crucial for the successful intraoral removal in sialolithiasis. Customizing surgical approaches based on the stone’s ductal location is imperative.

Hospitalization Utilization Metric After Major Oncologic Head and Neck Surgery With Microvascular Free Flap

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The primary length of stay (PLOS) metric fails to capture added time, costs, and reduced patient quality of life (QOL) associated with readmissions. To address these limitations, we propose a novel metric, the hospitalization utilization metric (HUM), which integrates PLOS and readmission LOS (RLOS). Study Design Retrospective review
