PERIPROSTHETIC FEMORAL FRACTURES IN MINIMALLY-INVASIVE ANTEROLATERAL SHORT STEM VERSUS TRANSGLUTEAL STRAIGHT STEM CEMENTLESS TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY: WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES IN THE FEMORAL AND PELVIC MORPHOLOGY?

Periprosthetic femoral fractures in minimally-invasive anterolateral short stem versus transgluteal straight stem cementless total hip arthroplasty: What are the differences in the femoral and pelvic morphology?

Abstract Background The occurrence of periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) in cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) might be associated with the proximal femoral morphology and the pelvis.PFFs in short stem THA are associated with an increased Canal Flare Index.PFFs in straight stem THA show a decreased Canal Flare Index.Therefore, this study

Technical Note: Flow velocity and discharge measurement in rivers using terrestrial and unmanned-aerial-vehicle imagery

An automatic workflow to measure surface flow velocities in rivers is introduced, including a Python tool.The method is based on particle-tracking velocimetry (PTV) and comprises an automatic definition of the search area for particles to track.Tracking is performed in the original images.Only the final tracks are geo-referenced, intersecting the i
