Background: The developmental size of the cervical spinal canal varies considerably. Neural compression and injury are more likely with a developmentally small spinal canal. This study was designed to develop a population reference range for developmental cervical spinal canal size for the Hong Kong population.

Premise: Variation in seed traits is common within and among populations of plant species and often has ecological and evolutionary implications. However, due to the time-consuming nature of manual seed measurements and the level of variability in imaging techniques, quantifying and interpreting the extent of seed variation can be challenging.

Methods: We developed a standardized high-throughput technique to measure seed number, as well as individual seed area and color, using a derived empirical scale to constrain area in , and .

Objectives: This study uses a practical positional MRI protocol to evaluate tibiofemoral translation and rotation in normal and injured knees.

Methods: Following ethics approval, positional knee MRI of both knees was performed at 35° flexion, extension, and hyperextension in 34 normal subjects (mean age 31.1 ± 10 years) and 51 knee injury patients (mean age 36.

Objective: To prospectively evaluate the accuracy of ultrasound in defining the specific nature of superficial soft tissue masses as well as determining malignancy.

Materials And Method: Eight hundred twenty-three superficial soft tissue masses were prospectively evaluated with ultrasound by one of five experienced musculoskeletal radiologists. The radiologist at the time of examination provided one to three specific differential diagnoses and the perceived level of confidence with regard to each diagnosis.
