The influence of hands posture on mental rotation of hands and feet

Behavioural and functional neuroanatomy studies demonstrate that mental rotation of body parts is carried out through a sort of inner motor simulation. Here we examined whether changes of hands posture influence the mental rotation of hands and feet. Twent ...

Ligament balancing in TKA: Evaluation of a force-sensing device and the influence of patellar eversion and ligament release

Hannes Bleuler, Thomas Maeder, Denis Crottet

Ligament balancing in total knee arthroplasty may have an important influence on joint stability and prosthesis lifetime. In order to provide quantitative information and assistance during ligament balancing, a device that intraoperatively measures knee jo ...

Absolute depth-dose-rate measurements for an 192Ir HDR brachytherapy source in water using MOSFET detectors

Rakesh Chawla

Reported MOSFET measurements concern mostly external radiotherapy and in vivo dosimetry. In this paper, we apply the technique for absolute dosimetry in the context of HDR brachytherapy using an 192Ir source. Measured radial dose rate distributions in wate ...

Front dynamics of supercritical non-Boussinesq gravity currents

Christophe Ancey, Steve Cochard, Martin Rentschler, Sébastien Wiederseiner

In this paper, we seek similarity solutions to the shallow water (Saint-Venant) equations for describing the motion of a non-Boussinesq, gravity-driven current in an inertial regime. The current is supplied in fluid by a source placed at the inlet of a hor ...

Holistic Radiation Modelling with a Fast Simplified Radiosity Algorithm

Darren Robinson

The radiant external environment may be described by two hemispheres, above and below the horizontal plane, which are discretised into patches of known solid angle. Occlusions to these patches may be combined and represented as some patch fraction for whic ...

Head Related Transfer Functions Interpolation Considering Acoustics

Martin Vetterli, Christof Faller, Luciano Sbaiz, Thibaut Ajdler

We are proposing an interpolation technique for head related transfer functions (HRTFs). For deriving the algorithm we study the dual problem where sound is emitted from the listener’s ear and the generated sound field is recorded along a circular array of ...

Ambulatory gait analysis in Parkinson's Disease: Application of a novel method based on kinematics sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Catherine Dehollain, Arash Salarian

Summary: Using our ambulatory monitoring system, ASUR, 13 Parkinsonian patients were monitored for periods of up to 5 hours while they were free to perform activities at will. Every one hour patients did a UPDRS test as the clinical assessment. During the ...

Ambulatory measurement of gait parameters in Parkinson's disease: Effects of subthalamic stimulation

Kamiar Aminian, Catherine Dehollain, Arash Salarian

Introduction: In this study the effect of subthalamic nucleus neep brain Stimulation (STN-DBS) on the gait parameters of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) was examined using an ambulatory gait analysis system based on miniature gyroscopes. The aim was ...

Exploring Curved Anatomic Structures with Surface Sections

Roger Hersch, Sebastian Gerlach, Laurent Saroul

The extraction of planar sections from volume images is the most commonly used technique for inspecting and visualizing anatomic structures. We propose to generalize the concept of planar section to the extraction of curved cross-sections (free form surfac ...

Head position during various locomotor executions after prolonged microgravity exposure

Grégoire Courtine

Head orientation in the sagittal plane was assessed before and the second and sixth days after a prolonged microgravity exposure (6 months) in 7 astronauts, which were instructed to execute various locomotor movements (stair ascent, jump down and level wal ...
