Virtual Reality-Based Preoperative Planning for Optimized Trocar Placement in Thoracic Surgery: A Preliminary Study [PDF]
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive approach for treating early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer. Optimal trocar placement during VATS ensures comprehensive access to the thoracic cavity, provides a panoramic endoscopic view, and prevents instrument crowding. While established principles such as the Baseball Diamond Principle

Prediction of Workplace Injuries [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Workplace injuries result in substantial human and financial losses. As reported by the International Labour Organization (ILO), there are more than 374 million work-related injuries reported every year. In this study, we investigate the problem of injury risk prediction and prevention in a work environment.

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.Abstract Although the sternoclavicular joint shares structural similarities with the knee and hip joints as a diarthrodial joint, its biomechanics differ significantly due to its non‐weight‐bearing nature. Nevertheless, it is subject to considerable loading, leading to increased susceptibility to osteoarthritis, a prevalent condition characterized by ...

The accessory renal arteries: A systematic review with meta‐analysis
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.Abstract The accessory renal arteries (ARAs) are a well‐described variant of the renal vasculature with clinical implications for radiologists, surgeons, and clinicians. The aim of the present systematic review with meta‐analysis was to estimate the pooled prevalence of ARAs, including their variant number, origin, and termination, and to highlight ...
