  1. 1. On Virtual Surgical Planning in Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery

    Author : Johanna Nilsson; Andreas Thor; Risto Kontio; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Virtual surgical planning. Computer assisted planning. 3D computer model. Orbital segmentation. Craniomaxillofacial surgery planning. Haptics.; Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery; Käkkirurgi;

    Abstract : The complex three-dimensional (3D) anatomy of the cranio-maxillofacial (CMF) region makes surgery a challenging task. Virtual surgical planning (VSP) has the potential to increase accuracy, reproducibility and shorten operation time. READ MORE

  2. 2. Automatic generation of patient specific models for hip surgery simulation

    Author : Johanna Pettersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Simulation of surgical procedures in computer based simulator systems is a relatively new area of interest in the field of medical technology. Many different systems are under development, but it is still far until this technique becomes routine in a clinical environment. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Human Cochlea and Cochlear Implantation : Morphological Characteristics and Clinical Correlations

    Author : Nadine Schart-Morén; Helge Rask-Andersen; Elina Mäki-Torkko; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cochlear implantation; micro-CT; synchrotron; facial nerve stimulation; hearing preservation; round window;

    Abstract : The most common sensory deficit in the world is sensorineural hearing loss. Cochlear implantation (CI) can majorly contribute to restore hearing, not only in patients with severe to profound hearing loss, but also in hearing-impaired patients with residual low-frequency hearing.

  4. 4. The Human Vestibular Aqueduct, Endolymphatic Duct and Sac : A Morphological Study Using Micro-CT, Super Resolution Immunohistochemistry and Synchrotron Phase Contrast Imaging

    Author : Charlotta Kämpfe Nordström; Helge Rask-Andersen; Göran Laurell; Claes Möller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Endolymphatic sac; endolymphatic duct; vestibular aqueduct; Meniere s disease; LVAS; micro-CT; synchrotron phase contrast imaging; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : The inner ear lies sheltered in the temporal bone and consists of basically three parts: the cochlea (the hearing organ), the vestibular (the balance organ), and the endolymphatic duct (ED) and endolymphatic sac (ES). The ES and ED are located in a bony canal, the vestibular aqueduct (VA), located on the medial side of the vestibule. READ MORE

  5. 5. A New Shoulder for the THOR Dummy Intended for Oblique Collisions

    Author : Fredrik Törnvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Shoulder; Shoulder range-of-motion; Volunteers; Kinematics; Biofidelity; Post Mortem Human Subjects; THOR; Crash test dummy; Oblique collision;

    Abstract : Offset and oblique frontal car collisions represent a type of crash in which severe and fatal injuries frequently occur. This indicates the importance of having protective systems in vehicles for these types of collisions. READ MORE
