Radiological risk analysis is an essential component for evaluating the performance criteria of nuclear power plant. Assessment of the radiological risk corresponding to the inhalation exposure finally guarantees that whether release is within limit or beyond limit, further dictating the performance of the system. However, all the parameters involved in the model used to evaluate the risk from ...

conclusions although spinopelvic fracture dislocation injuries are severe high-energy entities, in cases with traumatic spondylolytic spondylolisthesis due to widening of the vertebral canal, neurologic deficit may not be seen at all. case presentation we described a 16-year-old girl with extremely severe axial trauma to the lumbosacral spine who presented with fracture dislocation of the lumbo...

STUDY DESIGN Case control study. PURPOSE To examine the effect of spino-pelvic sagittal parameters and back muscles on osteoporotic vertebral fracture. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Low bone mass is not the only important component of the risk on osteoporotic vertebral fracture; many other risk factors also contribute to skeletal fragility. METHODS Seventy-two patients who had a lateral radiogra...

T involving sacral nerve roots and/or bony structures at the lumbosacral junction are challenging to treat surgically due to potential neurological deficits and biomechanical instability following resection (16, 26). However, with the advent of new modern spinal instrumentation, more biomechanically stable lumbosacropelvic constructs can be used. Additionally, with the recent advances in adjuva...

Hip dysplasia (HD) is 1 of the major reasons of coxarthrosis. The goal of the treatment of HD by Tönnis triple pelvic osteotomy (TPAO) is to improve the function of hip joint while relieving pain, delaying and possibly preventing end-stage arthritis. The aim of this study is to compare the clinical and radiological results of TPAO to determine if previous surgery has a negative effect on TPAO.P...

Background: The natural radioactivity levels in ceramic tiles produced in Turkey were determined and the related radiological hazards were assessed. Materials and Methods: The natural radioactivity levels (226Ra, 232Th and 40K) in the ceramic tiles were measured using high-purity germanium detector system (HPGe) and the related radiological hazards were assessed by radium equivalent activity (R...
