Comparison of the efficacy of ultrasound-guided dextrose 25% hypertonic prolotherapy and intra-articular normal saline injection on pain, functional limitation, and range of motion in patients with knee osteoarthritis; a randomized controlled trial
Orthopedics Imaging 5 min.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disease characterized by knee pain and dysfunction [1]. The release of inflammatory cytokines into the synovial fluid, and their detrimental effects on the articular cartilage and other components of joint tissue lead to the progression of OA...

Hip fractures are the most prevalent type of fractures in the elderly population, disabling 4.5 million people worldwide every year [1, 2]. As the population ages, the incidence of these fractures continues to rise, with nearly half being intertrochanteric fractures [3]. When not treated promptly,...
Use of a soft guiding template and laser device improves the success rate of computed tomography-guided bone biopsies and reduces radiation exposure

Image-guided percutaneous bone biopsy enables real-time visualisation of the needle’s position, making it the preferred method for the definitive diagnosis of bone tumours and is widely utilised [1]. Currently, common imaging guidance techniques for percutaneous bone biopsy include computed tomography...
Predictive impact of T2-MRI radiomics model on initial diagnosis of bone metastasis in prostate cancer patients

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a prevalent form of cancer among middle-aged and elderly men in China. In the United States [1], it ranks first in terms of incidence and second in terms of mortality among male tumors. While the incidence of PCa in China is lower than in European and American countries, it has...
