Study Designs: Questionnaire, Retrospective chart review, Cadaver study, and crosssectional study. Objectives: Assess current imaging practices; determine utility of accessory radiographic studies, including dynamic and oblique radiographs; calculate effective radiation doses of routine spine radiographs. Summary of Background Data: Plain radiography is generally considered the initial imaging ...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of botulinum toxin-a (bta) injection into the inferior oblique (io) muscle in releaving the symptoms of superior oblique (so) palsy. methods: the study was conducted on patients who were referred for acquired so palsy with less than 2 years of duration. about 10-20 unit of bta was injected into the belly of the inferior oblique muscle through the inferotemporal q...

In digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), oblique x-ray incidence shifts the image of an object in sub-pixel detector element increments with each projection angle. Our previous work has shown that DBT is capable of superresolution as a result of this property. Although super-resolution is achievable over a broad range of positions for frequencies parallel to the chest wall side of the breast supp...

OBJECTIVE Motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of injury and mortality for children. Mitigation of these injuries requires biofidelic anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs) to design and evaluate automotive safety systems. Effective countermeasures exist for frontal and near-side impacts but are limited for far-side impacts. Consequently, far-side impacts represent increased injury and mortal...

this article presents a new technique for weakening the superior oblique muscle by lengthening it's tendon. lengthening is accomplished by a nasal superior oblique tenotomy, and by inserting a segment of silicone band 240 between the cut ends of the tendon. this technique is useful for the treatment of brown syndrome and cases with superior oblique overaction.

Symbols, one of the three forms figurative language, play a crucial role in human life as they expand and deepen knowledge while igniting imagination. Given their significance, symbols find extensive employment throughout Christian Scriptures, known Bible, most widely translated book globally.
