Importance: Hemochromatosis is rare in domestic animals, and iron-induced myopathy has not been reported in veterinary medicine. This case is the first report of iron-overload myopathy owing to hemochromatosis in a dog.
Case Presentation: A 9-year-old spayed female Donggyeong dog presented with severe forelimb lameness.
Introduction: The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in radiation therapy holds promise for addressing challenges, such as healthcare staff shortages, increased efficiency and treatment planning variations. Increased AI adoption has the potential to standardise treatment protocols, enhance quality, improve patient outcomes, and reduce costs. However, drawbacks include impacts on employment and algorithmic biases, making it crucial to navigate trade-offs.

The technique was tested on three species: , , and , which showed long-term viability and recovery rates superior to those when treated with a traditional cryoprotectant only. While DMSO alone enabled high cell recovery rates for all species after 1 week of cryopreservation, the rates for some of them dropped below 50% after 26 weeks of cryopreservation.

This study explores vibrational strong coupling (VSC) between molecular ensembles and subradiant "dark" cavities that support infrared quadrupolar plasmonic resonances (QPLs). The QPL mode exhibits a dispersion characteristic of bound states in the continuum (BIC).
