3D measurement for endoscopic systems has been largely demanded. One promising approach is to utilize active-stereo systems using a micro-sized pattern-projector attached to the head of an endoscope. Furthermore, a multi-frame integration is also desired to enlarge the reconstructed area.

Purpose: Radiation protection glasses reduce eye lens exposure in Interventional Radiology (IR). However, the protection ratio differs for the lead equivalent content and shape of the lenses. This study aimed to examine factors effective in reducing the lens dose by measuring the protection ratio of scattered radiation due to changes in the surgeon's face orientation, various lead equivalents, and shapes.

Paediatric traumatic brain injuries: A descriptive analysis of incidence, visits, cause, and admission rates in Iceland from 2010 to 2021.

Int Emerg Nurs

January 2025

Department of Physical Therapy, Faculty of Medicine, School of Health Sciences, University of Iceland, and Research Institute of Neurobehavioral Rehabilitation, Landspitali University Hospital, Iceland.

Background: Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are common in emergency departments (ED) and may cause long-term negative outcomes but knowledge on how the first assessment of children with TBI may predict outcomes is lacking. This study aimed to expand the knowledge by describing the incidence, visits, causes, and outcomes of TBI in children in Iceland.

Methods: A retrospective descriptive data analysis was conducted on electronic medical records of children aged 0-17 that visited Landspitali EDs due to a traumatic head injury in 2010-2021.

Social animals live in groups and interact volitionally in complex ways. However, little is known about neural responses under such natural conditions. Here, we investigated hippocampal CA1 neurons in a mixed-sex group of five to 10 freely behaving wild Egyptian fruit bats that lived continuously in a laboratory-based cave and formed a stable social network.

Interfered by external factors, the receptive field limits the traditional CNN multispectral remote sensing building change detection method. It is difficult to obtain detailed building changes entirely, and redundant information is reused in the encoding stage, which reduces the feature representation and detection performance. To address these limitations, we design a Siamese network of shared attention aggregation to learn the detailed semantics of buildings in multispectral remote sensing images.
