Reliability of rehabilitative ultrasound imaging for the medial gastrocnemius muscle in poststroke patients
ConclusionIn this study, the intra‐ and interexaminer reliability of the pennation angle and muscle thickness measurements of the medial gastrocnemius muscle was good to very good. Therefore, we suggest that the pennation angle and muscle thickness measurements of the medial gastrocnemius muscle obtained from rehabilitative ultrasound imaging would be useful for clinical assessment in poststroke patients.

Temporomandibular joint diagnosis: striking a balance between the sufficiency of clinical assessment and the need for imaging
An interesting evaluation of the validity of the RDC/TMD for the diagnosis of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) internal derangements and degenerative joint disease (DJD) changes was provided by Galhardo and colleagues. The authors cited the relevant publications from the RDC/TMD Validation Project, and appropriately used the imaging diagnosis criteria by Ahmad et al. One conclusion by Galhardo et al. is that the RDC/TMD is not valid for internal derangement and DJD diagnoses compared to imaging-based criteria. While we agree completely with that point, we wonder what is new in that conclusion. The Validation Project has alr...

Clinical Pathologic Conference Case 2: A Diffuse Swelling Affecting Soft Palate and Oropharynx
A 47-year-old woman presented with a 2-year history of odynophagia. Her medical, family, and social history were unremarkable. Dental history included full-mouth extractions because of extensive periodontal disease several years earlier. Head and neck extraoral physical examination was also unremarkable, with no evidence of asymmetry, trismus, or cervical lymphadenopathy.

Diagnostic efficacy of cone-beam computed tomography for mandibular fractures
Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the clinical efficacy of maxillofacial cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the diagnosis of suspected mandibular fractures and to evaluate whether findings would lead to a change in treatment.Study design: CBCT imaging was performed for 164 patients with suspected mandibular fractures (231 sites) but equivocal clinical and radiological findings (conventional radiography). Images were interpreted by oral and maxillofacial surgeons and treatment decisions based on pre and postimaging were compared. Linear regression analyses were performed.Results: For 63.2% of sites (n ...

Prospects and challenges of rendering tissue density in Hounsfield units for cone beam computed tomography
Conclusions: Artifacts challenge the accurate conversion of density values into HUs. Care should be taken when interpreting quantitative density measurements obtained with CBCT. With more advanced software and methods, it may be possible to improve the consistency and accuracy of density measurements.

Antibiotic prophylaxis guidelines for prosthetic joints: much ado about nothing?
A writing committee representing the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and the American Dental Association (ADA) worked for over 2 years to produce the new 2012 guidelines “Prevention of Orthopaedic Implant Infection in Patients Undergoing Dental Procedures.” This document is quite different than the 1997 and 2003 guidelines, and from what was expected by clinicians in general. Some explanation is needed to understand what was intended and what was accomplished, and where we might go from here.

Bilateral common carotid artery ultrasound for prediction of incident strokes using intima-media thickness and external diameter: an observational study
Background: External common carotid artery (CCA) diameter and intima-media thickness (IMT) are independently associated with incident stroke and other cardiovascular events. Arterial geometry such as large IMT and large diameter may reflect vulnerable plaques and so impact stroke risk. Finally, arterial changes that exist bilaterally may increase stroke risk.MethodWe studied middle-aged men and women (n=7276) from a prospective observational study who had right (R) and left (L) CCA IMT and external diameters measured via B-mode ultrasound (1987--89) in order to categorize CCA geometry. Using side- and gender-specific IMT a...

Focused abdominal ultrasound in preoperative liver surgery staging: a prospective study
Conclusions: The relatively high sensitivity rates achieved by US focused on liver evaluation, with the aim of lowering costs but not efficiency, places the method in focus again for use in the routine preoperative staging of candidates for liver resection. We suggest for preoperative evaluation that US could be associated with one section imaging method (computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging) as routine.

Speckle tracking echocardiography-determined measures of global and regional left ventricular function correlate with functional capacity in patients with and without preserved ejection fraction
Conclusions: STE--determined measures of global and regional left ventricular function have a strong linear association with estimates of functional capacity in patients with and without preserved ejection fraction. STE--determined measures of strain, especially longitudinal strain, are likely to be important targets for therapy and should be considered in future studies aimed at improving our diagnosis of left ventricular inadequacy in patients with heart failure, especially those with preserved ejection fraction.

Cervical pessaries for prevention of spontaneous preterm births: Past, present and future
Abstract This review describes rationale and gradual introduction of cervical pessaries into clinical practice, technical aspects of more commonly used designs and provides guidance for their use and future evaluation. Possible advantages include easy, ‘one off’ application, good side‐effect profile, good patient tolerability and relatively low cost compared to current alternatives. Use of transvaginal sonography allows much better selection of patients that may benefit, but future clinical trials are needed to establish the clear role of pessaries as a preterm birth prevention strategy world‐wide.

Dose mapping sensitivity to deformable registration uncertainties in fractionated radiotherapy -- applied to prostate proton treatments
Background: Calculation of accumulated dose in fractionated radiotherapy based on spatial mapping of the dose points generally requires deformable image registration (DIR). The accuracy of the accumulated dose thus depends heavily on the DIR quality. This motivates investigations of how the registration uncertainty influences dose planning objectives and treatment outcome predictions.A framework was developed where the dose mapping can be associated with a variable known uncertainty to simulate the DIR uncertainties in a clinical workflow. The framework enabled us to study the dependence of dose planning metrics, and the p...
