The calibration of CT Hounsfield units for radiotherapy treatment planning.
Computer tomographic (CT) scans are used to correct for tissue inhomogeneities in radiotherapy treatment planning. In order to guarantee a precise treatment, it is important to obtain the relationship between CT Hounsfield units and electron densities (or proton stopping powers for proton radiotherapy), which is the basic input for radiotherapy planning systems which consider tissue heterogenei...
متن کاملEarly Bone Marrow Edema Pattern of the Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fracture : Can Be Predictor of Vertebral Deformity Types and Prognosis?
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether an early bone marrow edema pattern predicts vertebral deformity types and prognosis in osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). METHODS This retrospective study enrolled 64 patients with 75 acute OVCFs who underwent early MRI and followed up MRI. On early MRI, the low SI pattern of OVCF on T1WI were assessed and classified into 3 types (diffuse, globul...
متن کاملCan Energy Cost During Low-Intensity Resistance Exercise be Predicted by the OMNI-RES Scale?
The aim of the present study was to assess the precision of the OMNI-RES scale to predict energy cost (EC) at low intensity in four resistance exercises (RE). 17 male recreational body builders (age = 26.6 ± 4.9 years; height = 177.7 ± 0.1 cm; body weight = 79.0 ± 11.1 kg and percent body fat = 10.5 ± 4.6%) served as subjects. Initially tests to determine 1RM for four resistance exercises (benc...
متن کاملSubsequent fracture after percutaneous vertebroplasty can be predicted on preoperative multidetector row CT.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Subsequent fracture is often seen after percutaneous vertebroplasty. The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate preoperative multidetector row CT (MDCT) for the prediction of subsequent fractures after vertebroplasty. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 26 consecutive patients (18 women and 8 men) with osteoporotic compression fractures (58 vertebrae). ...
متن کاملVertebroplasty for vertebral compression fracture.
The patients with intensive pain caused by the vertebra body fracture were treated by application of bone cement under local or general anesthesia, by means of diascopy through unilateral transpedicular approach. The intensity of pain was followed-up on the VAS scale before surgery, 24 hours after surgery and three months after surgery. The cement was applied in 55 patients (43 women, 12 men). ...
