Modern technologies in the assessment and treatment of pelvic organ prolapse - experimental and clinical studies KU Leuven
In this project, we aim to use modern assessment techniques to study certain risk factors related to the development of pelvic floor prolapse in a clinical setting as well as in an experimental model. Pelvic floor prolapse is a bothersome condition when the vaginal wall or the uterus protrudes through the vaginal opening. It affects mainly women who were at least once pregnant and delivered vaginally. The project includes clinical part during ...
Kinematic Assessment of Real‐time Motion Acquisition of the Human Musculoskeletal System by Dynamic 4D Transversal Imaging (KARMA‐4Dplus) Vrije Universiteit Brussel
kinematic assessment of human skeletal structures and soft tissues in real‐time movement. We want to achieve this by combining dynamic 4D CT scanning with a markerless motion tracking system. In addition, we develop an experimental support system that allows 4D scanning in real-time movement, and a software for processing the acquired image ...
Functional signals in bone microstructure of flying vertebrates, and its importance for the understanding of the origin of powered flight in feathered dinosaurs Ghent University
Exciting new discoveries of feathered dinosaurs during the last decenia have accumulated and gained more popularity, both among scientists and the broader public. These new fossil finds have put the origin and evolution of flapping flight in new perspectives, including the early four-winged phase and secondary loss of flight performance in several theropod dinosaurs. Locomotion types, as well as insights in biological growth, ontogenetic ...
