The effects a novel extracapsular suture technique (lateral extracapsular suture system or LESSa) on the kinematics of the cranial cruciate deficient stifle
… deficient stifles, and stifles following a novel extracapsular procedure (lateral extracapsular suture system or LESSa) under load at specific joint angles. Study Design: In vitro biomechanical study. Methods: Twenty pelvic limbs from 11 dogs were used to evaluate the relative position of the …

Ruby Joint Stabilization System as a Suitable Method of Extracapsular Repair
Objective: To characterize the effect of the Ruby Joint Stabilization System (Ruby) on the motion of the cranial cruciate ligament (CrCL) deficient stifle. To compare the motion with the Ruby to that of the CrCL-intact and CrCL-deficient stifle. Study Design: Each canine pelvic limb was mounted in …

Intracavity optical parametric oscillators based on orientation-patterned gallium arsenide
Extracapsular proximal femoral fractures are becoming an increasingly common injury as both the population and average life expectancy increase. Currently sliding hip screws (SHS) are used to treat these fractures; however the surgery to implant these devices causes significant soft tissue damage. …

A Biomechanical Cadaver Study to Determine the Effectiveness of the Lateral Graft Technique and Isometric Suture Placement for Extracapsular Stabilization of the Cranial Cruciate Ligament Deficient Stifle in the Dog
… and part of the patellar ligament, used in an extracapsular fashion from the tibial crest to the femorofabellar ligament, would eliminate abnormal cranial drawer motion in the cranial cruciate ligament (CrCL) deficient stifle 2) To determine if two new tibial suture anchor points would enhance …

Targeting the bombesin subtype 2 receptor for the diagnosis and treatment of metastatic prostate cancer
… options can provide a cure. However, undetected extracapsular or regional lymph node metastasis plagues the long-term survival statistics of definitive therapies. In advanced prostate cancer, initial androgen depravation therapy has failed to control cancer progression, and regional lymph node …

Evaluation of an End-to-End Radiotherapy Treatment Planning Pipeline for Prostate Cancer
… tumor may be either local, locally advanced with extracapsular involvement, or extend into the pelvic lymph node chain. Automating essential parts of this process would allow for the rapid development of effective treatment plans and better plan optimization to enhance tumor control for better …

Perineural Invasion in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Salivary Gland Malignancies: Incidence, Prognostic Impact and Molecular Insight
… large tumour size, presence of nodal and extracapsular extension, increased depth and infiltrative pattern of invasion, poor tumour differentiation, advanced tumour front and lymphovascular invasion, while SGMs with PNI exhibited a greater potential only for lymphovascular involvement. PNI …
