Successful Identification and Assessment of the Superior Cluneal Nerves with High-Resolution Sonography.

Successful Treatment of Chronic Donor Site Pain

INTRODUCTION This is a case presentation of a 45-year-old male with chronic donor site pain following autologous iliac crest bone harvest successfully treated with superior cluneal nerve blockade. Donor site pain following autologous bone harvest is a common postoperative complication of lumbar fusion procedures that can cause significant morbidity and diminish quality of life, even in the cont...

High resolution sonography of peripheral nerves: normal values in healthy individuals and the role of sonography in rare disorders of peripheral nerves PhD Thesis

Object Level Strategy for Spectral Quality Assessment of High Resolution Pan-sharpen Images

Panchromatic and multi-spectral images produced by the remote sensing satellites are fused together to provide a multi-spectral image with a high spatial resolution at the same time. The spectral quality of the fused images is very important because the quality of a large number of remote sensing products depends on it. Due to the importance of the spectral quality of the fused images, its eval...

Object-Based Classification of UltraCamD Imagery for Identification of Tree Species in the Mixed Planted Forest

This study is a contribution to assess the high resolution digital aerial imagery for semi-automatic analysis of tree species identification. To maximize the benefit of such data, the object-based classification was conducted in a mixed forest plantation. Two subsets of an UltraCam D image were geometrically corrected using aero-triangulation method. Some appropriate transformations were perfor...

High-resolution sonography of lower extremity peripheral nerves: anatomic correlation and spectrum of disease.

OBJECTIVE The value of sonography for the diagnosis of diseases of the peripheral nervous system is only little known. This image presentation is intended to raise the awareness of sonographers and clinicians of the potential of sonography by giving an anatomic-sonographic correlation of lower extremity peripheral nerves and an overview of commonly encountered diseases. METHODS On 2 lower ext...
