Dynamic Augmented Reality Cues for Telementoring in Minimally Invasive Surgeries: Scoping Review by Hawa Hamza, Omar M Aboumarzouk, Abdulla Al-Ansari, Nikhil V Navkar

“…Most of the articles reported on laparoscopic suturing performed using synthetic phantoms. Hand gestures and surgical tools were the most frequently used dynamic AR cues (10 articles on each cue), while the mentors and mentees primarily consisted of experienced surgeons and medical students. …”

High Data-Rate Hilbert-Curved-Shaped MIMO Antenna With Improved Bandwidth and Circular Polarization for Wireless Capsule Endoscopy by Syed Misbah Un Noor, Syed Ahson Ali Shah, Shahid Khan, Izaz Ali Shah, Jamal Nasir, Salahuddin Khan, Slawomir Koziel

“…At both ports, the axial ratio (<3 dB) covers part of the ISM band in the homogeneous stomach, small intestine, and large intestine phantoms. Additionally, a safety assessment, employing a realistic human model, aligns findings with established safety guidelines, revealing average specific absorption rates of 543 W/kg (1 g) and 58.6 W/kg (10 g) at 2.45 GHz. …”

Iron(III)–Quercetin Complex: In Vivo Acute Toxicity and Biodistribution of Novel MRI Agent by Innuan P, Kongkarnka S, Thongtharb A, Kantapan J, Dechsupa N

“…These properties make IronQ a promising candidate for safe and effective MRI contrast enhancement.Purpose: This study aims to further the development of IronQ as an MRI contrast agent by investigating its biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, and acute toxicity in a preclinical animal model.Methods: The relaxivity of IronQ was measured in water and whole blood phantoms. Acute toxicity was evaluated in Sprague Dawley rats administered single intraperitoneal doses of IronQ (75, 150, and 225 μmol Fe/kg BW) over a 14-day period. …”

Comprehensive analysis of peripheral dose in electron beam therapy with a Varian TrueBeam Linac by Kapil Dev Maharaj, Mahsheed Sabet, Joshua Dass, Mounir Ibrahim, Talat Mahmood, Pejman Rowshanfarzad

“…Measurements were performed using EBT3 films in solid water phantoms. The impact of field size on the penumbra width and peripheral doses was studied using various cutouts, including 3 ​cm ​× ​3 ​cm, 6 ​cm ​× ​6 ​cm, and 10 ​cm ​× ​10 ​cm in a 10 ​cm ​× ​10 ​cm applicator with the gantry and collimator at 0°. …”
