Background: Perioperative cerebral infarction is a potential complication of glioma resection, of which insular tumors are at higher risk because of the proximity of middle cerebral artery branches, including the lateral lenticulostriates and long insular arteries. In this study, 3 patients received three-dimensional rotational angiography, which was fused with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for frameless stereotactic navigation during dominant-hemisphere insular glioma resection.
Methods: All patients obtained a preoperative catheter angiogram with a three-dimensional rotational acquisition of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery. The pixel-based axial three-dimensional angiography data, thin-cut structural MRI, tractography from diffusion tensor imaging, and expressive language activation from functional MRI were uploaded into the iPlan software (Brainlab, Heimstetten, Germany) and fused. The target tumor, regional blood vessels, adjacent functional areas, and their associated fiber tracts were segmented and overlaid on the appropriate MRI sequence. This image fusion was used preoperatively to visualize the relationship of the mass with the adjacent vasculature and intraoperatively for frameless stereotactic navigation to optimize preservation of arterial structures.
Results: Three patients aged 27-60 years with excellent baseline functional status presented with seizures and were found to have a large dominant-hemisphere T2 hyperintense nonenhancing insular mass. Surgical resection was performed using multimodality neuronavigation. None sustained a postoperative arterial infarction or a perioperative neurologic deficit.
Conclusions: Neuronavigation using a fusion of three-dimensional rotational angiography with MRI is a technique that can be used for preoperative planning and during resection of insular gliomas to optimize preservation of adjacent arteries.

To address the challenges of high computational complexity and poor real-time performance in binocular vision-based Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) formation flight, this paper introduces a UAV localization algorithm based on a lightweight object detection model. Firstly, we optimized the YOLOv5s model using lightweight design principles, resulting in Yolo-SGN. This model achieves a 65.

The posterior mandible is the primary area for occlusal function. However, long-term tooth loss in the posterior mandible often leads to rapid absorption of both buccal and lingual trabecular bone plates and subsequent atrophy of the alveolar ridge. This ultimately results in horizontal bone deficiencies that complicate achieving an optimal three-dimensional placement for dental implants.

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.
