How does communication originates in a population of originally non-communicating individuals? Providing an answer to this question from a neo-Darwinian epistemological perspective is not a trivial ta…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a personal-computer-based teleradiology system for the interpretation of radiologic studies from an isolated community.METHODS: During a 5-month study period, 240 radiologic stu…
Reaching mothers and their newborn infants around the time of birth with adequate health services has long been a difficult problem in developing countries. In parallel, similar problems have arisen i…
Telemedicine offers the potential to alleviate the severe shortage of medical specialists in developing countries. However lack of equipment and poor network connections usually rule out video-confere…
The dynamic behavior of the ossicular chain is very complex and is frequency-dependent. To date, this has still not been fully investigated or understood. There remains a lack of measurement procedure…
We introduce a new extension of image correlation spectroscopy (ICS) and image cross-correlation spectroscopy (ICCS) that relies on complete analysis of both the temporal and spatial correlation lags …
Tagged magnetic resonance imaging allows the noninvasive measurement of regional systolic myocardial deformations and helps localize ischemic regions in the left ventricle (LV). The objective of this …
OBJECTIVE: Fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy for evaluation of spongiform nodules ?20 mm or observation without FNA was recommended by American Thyroid Association. However, this was a weak recommen…
OBJECTIVES: To report the collective experience of three multinational institutions with the use of robotics to evaluate and treat complex distal ureteral obstruction.METHODS: A total of 12 patients f…
We created three-part unstable intertrochanteric fractures in 6 pairs of aged, osteopenic, human, cadaveric femora. Fractures were reduced and fixed with a Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) (Synthes, Paoli, PA)…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the total systematic accuracy of a frameless, image guided stereotactic radiosurgery system.METHODS: The localization accuracy and intermodality difference was determined by deliv…
The aim of this study was to develop an objective evaluation system for the masticatory function. This system used paraffin wax cubes as a test food, which had six red- and green-coloured layers so th…
The combination of medical imaging with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has enabled the study of 3-D blood flow on a patient-specific level. However, with models based on gated high-resolution data…
Home composting can be an effective way to reduce the volume of municipal solid waste. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Effective Microorganism™ (EM) for the home scale co-composting…
As lipofilling of the female breast is becoming more popular in plastic surgery, the use of MRI to assess breast volume has been employed to control postoperative results. Therefore, we sought to eval…
BACKGROUND: Assessment of psoriatic scales is important to determine the severity of psoriasis. However, there are very limited numbers of objective, quantitative and observer-independent tools for me…
Severe respiratory tract irritation occurred in at least 74 of 100 boilermakers who were exposed to high levels of vanadium pentoxide fume during oil-to-coal conversion of a utility company power plan…
PURPOSE: Research focusing on the consequences of sensory impairments for the everyday competence of the oldest-old is emerging. The two main goals of this study were to document the prevalence of sel…
PURPOSE: We evaluate radiofrequency (RF) heating of two kinds of hip joint implants of different sizes, shapes and materials. Temperature rises at various positions of each implant are measured and co…
This study compared the effects of 2 different high-intensity interval training (HIIT) programs in professional male canoe polo athletes. Responses of peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), ventilatory thresho…
