DOI: 10.1007/s00256-019-03222-z
Abstract: BackgroundThe scaphotrapeziotrapezoid joint (STTJ) has a complex osseous and ligamentous anatomy. Precise radiographic assessment is paramount when assessing osteoarthritic, post-traumatic, or post-operative patients. There has been no described technique to image the STTJ without any… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.phro.2022.02.009
Abstract: Background and purpose Linac-based stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) planning for multi-metastatic cases is a complex and intensive process. A manual planning strategy starts with a template-based set of beam angles and applies modifications though a trial… read more here.

Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "SIMULATION"
DOI: 10.1177/0037549718761108
Abstract: In radiation therapy, the main challenge is to deliver the dose to the tumor while sparing healthy tissues around the tumor. One important decision to make is the beam configuration. The corresponding mathematical problem, known… read more here.
