متن کاملReconstruction of frontal bone using specific implant polyether-ether-ketone.
Defects on the craniofacial complex may result in aesthetic defects, functional damage, and psychologic consequences. Previously, surgeons showed no interest in reconstructing the operated area, but in the treatment of the problem, leaving bone contour is a secondary issue. Nowadays, area reconstruction with post-reestablishment of contour and local shape has become one of the surgeon's priorit...
متن کاملComputed Tomography–Guided Interstitial Brachytherapy for Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer
OBJECTIVE We present a new technique of 3-dimensional computed tomography-guided interstitial (IS) brachytherapy (BT) for locally advanced cervical cancer, offering a more advantageous clinical treatment approach. MATERIALS/METHODS Interstitial BT was performed using an applicator combining uterine tandem and metal needles; needles were inserted freehand under real-time 3-dimensional computed...
متن کاملOptimization of clinical target volume delineation using magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) in 3D conformal radiotherapy of prostate cancer
Background: For the purpose of individual clinical target volume assessment in radiotherapy of prostate cancer, MRSI was used as a molecular imaging modality with MRI and CT images. Materials and Methods: The images of 20 prostate cancer patients were used in this study. The MR and MRSI images were registered with CT ones using non-rigid registration technique. The CT based planning (BP), CT/MR...
متن کاملPEEK (Polyether-ether-ketone) Based Cervical Total Disc Arthroplasty: Contact Stress and Lubrication Analysis
This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the maximum contact stress and the lubrication regimes for PEEK (Polyether-ether-ketone) based self-mating cervical total disc arthroplasty. The NuNec(®) cervical disc arthroplasty system was chosen as the study object, which was then analytically modelled as a ball on socket joint. A non-adhesion Hertzian contact model and elastohydrodynamic lubric...
