This study aimed to determine the optimal location of the iliac cortical window (ICW) for the direct reduction of acetabular dome impactions using a reference bony landmark....
In the first part of the study, computed tomography scans of 10 normal acetabula, the femoral head weight bearing area, were projected through the superior iliac cortical surface perpendicular to the ...
The average distance from the AIIS to the medial pelvic brim in the CT scans and cadaveric study were 47.7 and 45.9 mm, respectively. The K-wires at grid points B2 and C1 had a 100% correlation to the...
The proposed RP, which can be easily identified intraoperatively, and the area 1 cm...
Coronary accessibility following redo-transcatheter aortic valve replacement (redo-TAVR) is increasingly important, particularly in younger low-risk patients. This study aimed to predict coronary acce...
A total of 219 pre-TAVR CT scans from the Evolut Low-Risk CT substudy were analyzed. Virtual Evolut and Sapien-3 valves were sized using CT-based diameters. Two initial Evolut implant depths were anal...
With a 3-mm initial Evolut implant depth, suitable coronary access was predicted in 84% of patients with the Sapien-3 outflow at Evolut node 4, and in 31% of cases with the Sapien-3 outflow at Evolut ...
Coronary accessibility after Sapien-3 in Evolut redo-TAVR relates to the initial Evolut implant depth, the Sapien-3 outflow position within the Evolut, and the native annular anatomy. This CT-based qu...

The entropy generation analysis for the nanofluid flowing over a stretching/shrinking curved region is performed in the existence of the cross-diffusion effect. The surface is also subjected to second...
Automatic liver tumor segmentation is a paramount important application for liver tumor diagnosis and treatment planning. However, it has become a highly challenging task due to the heterogeneity of t...
Stochastic computing (SC) is widely known for its high error tolerance and efficient computing ability of complex functions with remarkably simple logic gates. The noise of electronic devices is widel...
Aim To assess the prevalence and determine the risk factors of computer vision syndrome among the general population in the Eastern region of Libya. Methods This study used a descriptive cross-section...
The anatomy of the posterior auricular artery (PAA) is highly variable and relevant in various plastic and reconstructive procedures....
The results of 55 consecutive patients who underwent head and neck computed tomography angiography (CTA) were analyzed. A total of 78 hemifaces were evaluated. The analysis has been performed in 19 ca...
Median PAA length was found to be 47.59 mm (LQ = 32.75; HQ = 56.16). The median PAA diameter (at its origin) was established at 2.55 mm (LQ = 2.29; HQ = 2.90). Moreover, the median PAA cross-sectional...
The present study demonstrated the complete anatomy of the PAA. The most frequent origin of the said artery was from the ECA, and its mean length was 45.07 mm; which did not differ between males and f...
Numerous studies discuss the features that constitute facial attractiveness. In recent years, computational research has received attention because it can examine facial features without relying on pr...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate a three-material decomposition algorithm for hepatic fat quantification using a dual-layer computed tomography (DL-CT) and MRI as reference standard on a larg...
A total of 104 patients were retrospectively included in our study, i.e., each patient had an MRI exam and a DL-CT exam in our institution within a maximum of 31 days. Four regions of interest (ROIs) ...
Correlation between MRI and CT data was excellent for all perfusion phases with ICC calculated at 0.99 for each phase. Determination coefficients R...
Multi-material decomposition in DL-CT allows quantification of hepatic fat fraction with a good correlation to MRI data....
The use of DL-CT allows for detection of hepatic steatosis. This is especially interesting as an opportunistic finding CT performed for other reasons, as early detection can help prevent or slowdown t...
• Hepatic fat fractions provided by the dual-layer CT algorithm is strongly correlated with that measured on MRI. • Dual-layer CT is accurate to detect hepatic steatosis ≥ 5%. • Dual-layer CT allows o...
This paper presents a technique for high sensitivity measurement of singlet oxygen luminescence generated during photodynamic therapy (PDT) and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on skin. The high measureme...
