The clinical utility of a one-shot energy subtraction method for thoracic spine radiography.
BACKGROUND The interpretation of thoracic spine X-rays is difficult because these images cannot clearly visualize the thoracic spine because of the overlap with soft tissues, such as the heart and pulmonary blood vessels. Thus, to improve the clarity of thoracic spine radiographs using existing radiograph equipment, we have investigated a one-shot energy subtraction method to visualize thoracic...

متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Lymphangioma of the Thoracic Spine with Epidural Compression: A Case Report
Lymphangiomas are benign lesions consisting of abnormal proliferations of lymphatic vessels. Lymphangiomas associated with bone involvement, particularly in vertebral bodies, accompanied by cord compression, are extremely rare, and our literature review yielded only a few relevant reports. We describe a 61-year-old man presenting with progressive paraparesis and sphincter disturbance of 5 month...
