Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography

353
DefinitionComputed Tomography (CT) of the genitourinary (GU) tract is a non-invasive imaging modality that utilizes X-rays and computer processing to generate detailed cross-sectional images of the urinary system, encompassing the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and adjacent structures such as the adrenal glands.PurposeCT scans of the GU tract serve several diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Diagnosis of Urinary Tract Diseases: Detects kidney stones, tumors, cysts, and congenital...

Computed Tomography

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique that provides crucial insights into the body's physiological functions at a molecular level. It is an indispensable resource for diagnosing, staging, and monitoring various illnesses, notably cancer, neurological disorders, and cardiovascular conditions.

Fractures: Bone Repair

5.3K
Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...

Design Example: Alignment of a Road Line Using GIS

346
The alignment of a road line using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a critical process in civil engineering, combining advanced technology with practical decision-making. This methodology begins with the collection of geospatial data, including information on land cover, geomorphology, drainage patterns, slope, and contour details. Such data is typically acquired through satellite imagery and GIS tools, offering a comprehensive understanding of the terrain.Once the data is gathered, it...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Biomedical engineering
  • 3D printing applications

Background:

  • Diaphyseal fractures require precise alignment for optimal healing.
  • Minimally invasive osteosynthesis techniques aim to reduce surgical trauma.
  • Current alignment methods may have limitations in complex fractures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a novel percutaneous bone alignment technique.
  • To assess the accuracy of a 3D-printed alignment jig for diaphyseal tibial fractures.
  • To determine the feasibility of computer-aided design (CAD) and 3D printing in fracture alignment.

Main Methods:

  • Mid-shaft diaphyseal fractures were created in canine tibiae.
  • Interaction pins were used for bone segment fixation.
  • Computed tomography (CT) scans were utilized for virtual fracture reduction.
  • A custom 3D-printed alignment jig was designed and fabricated.
  • Orthogonal radiographs assessed post-alignment tibial length and joint angles.

Main Results:

  • Post-alignment tibial length differences were minimal (average 1.55% and 1.43%).
  • Post-alignment joint angle differences averaged between 1.67° and 2.17°.
  • These differences in length and angles were not statistically significant (p > 0.05).

Conclusions:

  • The percutaneous alignment technique using 3D modeling and printing is technically feasible.
  • This method shows promise for enhancing clinical application of minimally invasive osteosynthesis.
  • Further in vivo evaluation is warranted to confirm clinical efficacy.
