Characterization of TiNbHf alloys for potential medical dental applications

Creator:: Amick, Darryl D.
Abstract:: A series of TiNbHf alloys ranging from 0-40 atomic % Nb and 0-15 atomic % Hf were evaluated to investigate low-elastic modulus phenomena which occur in this ternary system. The desirability of utilizing corrosion-resistant, biocompatible alloys with elastic modulus values approaching that of human bone for medical prosthetic implants provides...

Vernier Picket Fence Test : A Non-Imaging Method to Localize the Radiation Isocenter with Submillimeter Accuracy

Creator:: Wong, Jennifer
Abstract:: Vernier Picket Fence (VPF) offers a method to achieve submillimeter accuracy for aligning the QA phantom to the radiation isocenter without the use of x-ray imaging. VPF tests are read similarly to vernier calipers. The maximum detector signal determines the optimal matching between MLC defined dose strips and detector positions....

Mechanical characterization of a simple gel in a prototype device that models a degenerative intervertebral disc

Creator:: Cenar, Yannick
Abstract:: A large part of low-back pain occurrences are due to disc herniation or prolapse of the nucleus pulposus. An alternative technique to existing treatments of low back pain includes nucleus pulposus replacement by an artificial material to relieve pain and restore normal function. To date, there has been a deficiency...

In Vitro Evaluation of Therapeutic Laser Treatment on Equine Tendon Fibroblasts

Creator:: Husby, Kirsty A.
Abstract:: Previous investigations have failed to show benefits of low level laser therapy (LLLT) for tendon healing in horses, contrary to reports in other species. We hypothesized that delivery of LLLT at manufacturer-recommended energy fluence through equine cadaver skin to equine tendon-derived fibroblasts in vitro would increase cell proliferation, metabolic activity...

The disposition of four therapeutically important antimicrobial agents in llamas

Creator:: Murdande, Sharad B.
Abstract:: The disposition of four therapeutically important antimicrobial agents was studied in llamas following intravenous bolus administration. Six llamas were each given ampicillin, tobramycin, trimethoprim and enrofloxacin at a dose of 12 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg of body weight with a wash out period of 3 days...

Interdisciplinary Collaboration: The Dental Hygienist’s Role

Creator:: Swanson Jaecks, Kelli M.
Abstract:: Recent scientific studies show strong correlations between oral and systemic disease, creating a crucial need for increased collaboration between the medical and dental professions. Interdisciplinary collaboration between medical and dental providers is emerging as a critical component to effective patient care. The role of the dental hygienist in interdisciplinary collaboration...

Mechanical linkage design for haptic rehabilitation and development of fine motor skills

Creator:: Streng, B. Taylor
Abstract:: Thousands of children and adults suffer from fine motor skill deficits due to developmental disabilities or brain trauma. In order to acquire or reclaim these precision motor movements, occupational therapists work closely with each patient to develop the muscle memory required for completing tasks such as handwriting or drawing. Although...

Robots Against Infectious Diseases : A Technologically Grounded, Human-Centered Exploration

Creator:: Kraft, Kory
Abstract:: Robots have the potential to protect health care workers, provide patient care, and ultimately save lives in infectious disease outbreaks. Nevertheless, infectious disease outbreak scenarios present unique technological and social challenges for robotics. This work explores what robots can and should do in the fight against infectious diseases. We present...
