Cement distribution in vertebroplasties: imaging and simulation

Vincent Stadelmann

Prophylactic vertebroplasty, the percutaneous injection of bone cement into a weak vertebral body (VB), has been shown to reinforce the bone and possibly to minimize fracture risks. Cement leakage is still a common occurrence that can cause severe complica ...

Penetration Depth Method-Novel Real-Time Strategy for Evaluating Femoroacetabular Impingement

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Ehsan Arbabi

We introduce a new method for computerized real-time evaluation of femoroacetabular impingement (FM). In contrast to previously presented stress analyses, this method is based on two types of predictions of penetration depths for two rotating bodies: curvi ...
