The aim of this study was to evaluate usability and accuracy of three-dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA) during interventions of the aorta in congenital heart disease (CHD). 3DRA is an accurate, encompassing and fast imaging technique in the cath lab. However, there is only few published data about its use during interventions in CHD. Between January 2010 and January 2014, 3DRA was performed in 77 patients with aortic issues: in 65 % cases, an intervention was performed, of which 72 % had aortic isthmus stenosis. Data were obtained retrospectively. The accuracy of 3DRA was evaluated on the basis of comparative measurements (n = 60) of the aortic diameter between 3DRA and conventional biplane angiography. Measurements presented a high accuracy with an average deviation of 3.89 % [±3 %] and a significant correlation of r = 0.99 after Pearson (p < 0.0001). Clinical benefit was assessed using a five-point Likert scale and could be shown in 98 %. Comparison with a control group showed a reduced fluoroscopy time from 10.2 to 8.30 min (median, p < 0.01) and decreased radiation dose of 0.18 compared to 0.56 Gy cm(2)/kg (median, p < 0.02). The use of 3DRA in patients with aortic anomalies has advantages in comparison with conventional angiography. It improves diagnostic accuracy, and 3D guidance enables a faster and simplified intervention with enhanced patients' safety and the potential to reduce radiation dose.

Background: Long-leg alignment and joint line obliquity have traditionally been assessed using two-dimensional (2D) radiography, but the accuracy of this measurement has remained unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of 2D measurements of lateral distal femoral angle (LDFA) and medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) using upright three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT).
Methods: This study involved 66 knees from 38 patients (34 women, four men) with knee osteoarthritis (OA), categorized by Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade.

Anterior Shoulder Instability (ASI) is a common orthopedic condition often resulting in altered shoulder kinematics. Understanding the biomechanics of the unstable shoulder is critical to determine the most appropriate treatment. This study aims to conduct the first systematic review and meta-analysis of three-dimensional (3D) shoulder kinematic studies in ASI patients.

Welding-induced residual stress has the capacity to significantly compromise the integrity of mechanical components. Its minimization therefore plays a critical role in the selection of process parameters during the welding process. Friction stir welding is a useful joining technique to weld many materials that are not amenable to the traditional welding techniques.

Objective: To develop an original-mirror alignment associated deep learning algorithm for intelligent registration of three-dimensional maxillofacial point cloud data, by utilizing a dynamic graph-based registration network model (maxillofacial dynamic graph registration network, MDGR-Net), and to provide a valuable reference for digital design and analysis in clinical dental applications.
Methods: Four hundred clinical patients without significant deformities were recruited from Peking University School of Stomatology from October 2018 to October 2022. Through data augmentation, a total of 2 000 three-dimensional maxillofacial datasets were generated for training and testing the MDGR-Net algorithm.

Purpose: Currently, no gold standard exists for 3D analysis of virtually planned surgery accuracy postoperatively. The aim of this study was to present a new, validated and standardised methodology for 3D postoperative assessment of surgical accuracy in patients undergoing 3D virtually planned and guided corrective osteotomies.
Methods: All patients who underwent 3D planned corrective osteotomy in 2021-2022 at our center with a postoperative CT were included.
