Surgical angiogenesis for scaphoid non-union: A literature review
Non-union of scaphoid bone fractures, though an uncommon occurance, are a signficant cause of morbidity in young patients. This review outlines the current understanding of vascularised bone grafts and non-union, and examines the most current clinical ...

Bone Mineral Density in the Scaphoid
Introduction : The scaphoid bone is essential for wrist stability and movement. While fractures commonly occur at the scaphoid's waist, those at the proximal pole, though rarer, tend to result in nonunion, potentially linked to variations in bone mineral density (BMD).

Estimating in vivo midfoot and hindfoot joint locations using external skin markers
Abstract Musculoskeletal modeling offers a non‐invasive approach to analyze human movement, enabling estimation of forces that are difficult to measure experimentally. In musculoskeletal modeling, the human body is represented as rigid segments connected by joints.

Anatomy of the Soft Palate and Its Role in Upper Airway Function: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT The soft palate is a complex anatomical structure, located at the posterior aspect of the oral and nasal cavities, able to dynamically create valve closure of the nasal and the oral cavities. Its precise movement is critical for speech, swallowing, and respiration. Despite its functional importance, detailed characterization of its constituent

Volar Locking Plate Fixation for Scaphoid Fractures: Surgical Technique
Scaphoid fractures are the most encountered carpal fracture. Unstable fractures with substantial comminution or bone loss, as well as scaphoid nonunions, may benefit from fixation using volar locking plates. This article presents a surgical technique for

Ultrasound Findings in Symptomatic HADD of the Hand and Wrist. A Case Series of 37 Patients
Ultrasound enables accurate diagnosis of hydroxyapatite deposition disease of the hand and wrist in patients with acute, non‐traumatic pain, typically in middle‐aged women. Characteristic calcifications, often in the resorptive phase, support diagnosis, while radiography may confirm findings without the need for advanced imaging.

Comparison of computed tomographic, radiographic and anatomical dorsal hoof wall measurements
Summary Background No comparison of radiographic and computed tomographic (CT) dorsal hoof wall (DHW) thickness and DHW to the palmar length of the distal phalanx (DHWDP) ratio has been published. Radiographic measurements obtained with and without radiodense markers on the DHW have not been compared.
