FEASIBILITY OF POSTOPERATIVE SPINE STEREOTACTIC BODY RADIATION THERAPY IN PROXIMITY OF CARBON AND TITANIUM HYBRID IMPLANTS USING A ROBOTIC RADIOTHERAPY DEVICE

Abstract Background and purpose To assess the feasibility of postoperative stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for patients with hybrid implants consisting of carbon fiber reinforced polyetheretherketone and titanium (CFP-T) using CyberKnife.Materials and methods All essential steps within a radiation therapy (RT) workflow were evaluated.Fir

Background: Tooth loss in individuals more commonly occurs with increasing age.In a dental practice, many patients present with torus palatinus, which is usually caused by problems and complications resulting from denture fabrication.Therefore, a nonsurgical approach in which horseshoe-shaped complete dentures are fabricated is considered to be a v

Purpose: The research on masculinity in education has mainly been focused on analyze the organization of schools and the attention given to the students.This analysis has confirmed the existence of gender inequalities in schools, within them gender violence.This article will start from this background but has as objective to provide new knowledge a

Background and study aims Mucosal traction as a supportive technique is very useful for endoscopists during endoscopy.For gastric submucosal tumor (SMT), our team explored a method of pulling the SMT with a snare combined with endoclips (PSMT-SE).This study preliminarily explored its feasibility to assist resection of gastric SMT.Patients and metho

Adsorption of NO on the CeO2(110) surface was investigated using RPBE approach of GGA within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) combined with periodic slab model.Two molecular orientations, N-end and O-end, over various adsorption sites, top, hollow, bridge and O site of CeO2(110) sur-face have been considered.Two molecular orientatio
