Background The Optical Surface Management System (OSMS) is a simple, fast, reproducible, and accurate solution for patient set-up and can minimize random day-to-day set-up errors. However, studies in breast cancer patients are rare. Objective To analyze 200 patient set-ups in 20 patients with breast cancer by comparing the OSMS with the conventional cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Met...

Background: Thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) entails injecting a local anesthetic inside the thoracic space (TPVS). Loss of resistance to air injection (air-LOR) was first technique described in humans locate TPVS. To date, no study has investigated spread any substance after into TPVS using air-LOR nor cranial and caudal limits space.
 Aim: identify boundaries TPVS, determine whether i...

In Indonesia, transshipment is a logistical method to maintain the fish’s quality, but in reality this activity allows IUU fishing. Through Regulation of Minister Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Number 57/PERMEN-KP/2014, activities were banned because losses arising from fishing partially facilitated by transshipment; fish caught are not reported recorded. Transshipment covers origin how transhi...

In complex proximal humerus fractures, positioning of the tuberosities can be a challenge. This study demonstrates the constant angle between the pectoralis major (PM) and the medial lip of the bicipital groove (BG) on the horizontal axial plane. This angle can be used to determine the rotation, as well as the positioning of the tuberosities, when planning a hemiarthroplasty or a reconstruction...

BACKGROUND Many benefits and adverse effects of positioning are related to changes in ventilation and perfusion. A number of unique factors related to the allograft make the effects of positioning difficult to determine in single-lung transplant recipients. OBJECTIVES To determine the effect of 3 body positions (supine, lateral with allograft lung down, and lateral with native lung down) on o...
