This article describes a technique for modifying an existing mandibular complete denture for use as a radiographic template with a radiopaque light-activated calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)(2)) preparation. This allows prosthetically driven treatment planning and the surgical placement of 2 implants to support the existing mandibular denture.

Lung tumors can be obscured in X-rays, preventing accurate and robust localization. To improve lung conspicuity for image-guided procedures, we isolate the lungs in the anterior-posterior (AP) X-rays using a lung extraction network (LeX-net) that virtually removes overlapping thoracic structures, including ribs, diaphragm, liver, heart, and trachea. Approach: 73,965 thoracic 3DCTs and 106 thoracic 4DCTs were included.

Purpose: Restricted kinematic alignment (rKA) TKA is relatively newer technique for achieving an overall under-corrected limb alignment. The present study aims to provide an easy and reproducible technique for achieving calipered rKA-TKA (crKA-TKA) using routine instrumentation.
Method: A prospective study was conducted including 30 patients (30 knees).
