Abstract We designed a 30 Gy in 4 fractions stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) protocol, as an alternative option to our standard 2-fraction approach, for primarily large volume, multilevel, or previously radiated spinal metastases. report imaging-based outcomes of this novel fractionation scheme. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective analysis all patients who underwent Gy/4 from 2010-2021 id...

Introduction. Fat-derived adult mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into several phenotypes reflecting their potential to regenerate various skeletal tissues. These properties together with the association of adipose with skeletal tissues formed the basis of our study to establish an experimental model using fat-derived stromal cells and to examine their osteogenesis in vitro under the inf...

OBJECTIVE In this paper we introduce a methodology for hard and soft tissue quantification at proximal, intermediate and distal tibia sites using peripheral quantitative computed tomography scans. Quantification of bone properties is crucial for estimating bone structure resistance to mechanical stress and adaptations to loading. Soft tissue variables can be computed to investigate muscle volum...
