A Case of Short Radiolunate Avulsion Injury: Magnetic Resonance Diagnosis and Surgical Reconstruction.

Injury to the volar wrist capsule with short radiolunate ligament avulsion is uncommon and is often difficult to discern on advanced imaging, which can lead to a delay in diagnosis and the development of chronic wrist instability. We report a case of a short radiolunate ligament avulsion injury and a volar wrist capsular injury that went unrecognized for an extended period and led to chronic wrist pain and instability. We describe the magnetic resonance imaging findings of the injury and detail a successful surgical reconstruction technique.

A sub-50meV spectrometer and energy filter for use in combination with 200kV monochromated (S)TEMs.

A high-energy resolution post-column spectrometer for the purpose of electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) and energy-filtered TEM in combination with a monochromated (S)TEM is presented. The prism aberrations were corrected up to fourth order using multipole elements improving the electron optical energy resolution and increasing the acceptance of the spectrometer for a combination of object area and collection angles. Electronics supplying the prism, drift tube, high-tension reference and critical lenses have been newly designed such that, in combination with the new electron optics, a sub-50 meV energy resolution has been realized, a 10-fold improvement over past post-column spectrometer designs.
