		+	'''Abstract:'''
		+	Objective: We explored the feasibility of single-division puncture in the ophthalmic division, maxillary division, and mandibular division of the trigeminal ganglion intumescentia (TGI) and the feasibility of radiofrequency treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.
		+
		+	Methods: According to the previous anatomical image studies, [http://www.slicer.org '''3D Slicer'''] software was used to analyze the CT images of the patients. The trigeminal ganglion fossa (TGF) was used as the imaging sign. TGI was identified in the sagittal plane along the fiber. The puncture path starts from the TGI center-foramen ovale line, extending outward to the epidermis as the needle insertion point, and extending inward to the division boundary. For lateral puncture, which is blocked by the mandible, the positions of closed mouth, open mouth, and over-open mouth were used. Multiple targets were generated using straight electrodes and curved electrodes to achieve full coverage of TGI. According to the preoperative design, general anesthesia surgery was performed. Xper CT was used for imaging, and the puncture was guided by Xper Guide. Radiofrequency treatment of TGI was conducted.
		+
		+	Results: In total, 45 patients with trigeminal neuralgia underwent 50 single-division TGI punctures. The procedure was smooth and the compliance with the design was good. Continuous radiofrequency (CRF) was performed, the VAS scores were 25 times at 70°C, 19 times at 65°C, two times at 60°C, and two times at 50°C (both in the ophthalmic division). Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) was conducted two times. Within 24 h after the procedure, the VAS scores were all 0. From 1 to 7 days after the procedure, pain recurrence was found in three cases, of whom two cases received pulsed radiofrequency treatment. Patients were followed up for 1-24 months and there were no recurrence. After continuous radiofrequency at 65-70°C, the moderate tactile loss was observed, and nearly half of the patients had food residues on the surgical side after 6 months. After continuous radiofrequency at 60°C, there was mild tactile loss and no food residue. The tactile sensation was slightly decreased after continuous radiofrequency at 50°C, and the tactile sensation was normal the next day.
		+
		+	Conclusion: Trigeminal ganglion intumescentia single-division radiofrequency is effective and feasible for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.

	Conclusion: The results obtained using the ALPACA method are acceptable and promising. This approach can automatically place landmarks with an average accuracy of less than 2 mm, which may be sufficient in most anthropometric analyses. In the light of our results, however, odontological application such as occlusal analysis is not recommended.		Conclusion: The results obtained using the ALPACA method are acceptable and promising.

		+
		+	'''Abstract:'''
		+	Objectives: To measure the cranial capacity of members of the Saudi adult population across ages and genders.
		+
		+	Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study that used 488 Computed Tomography (CT) scans of heads (of which 275 males) to measure cranial volume. The CT slices 0.625 mm thick were uploaded using the freely available [http://www.slicer.org '''3D Slicer'''] software, which then reconstructed the images and built a 3D module.
		+
		+	Results: The mean (±SD) cranial capacity of the males was 1481.6 (±110) cm3 (range: 1241-1723 cm3), whereas the cranial capacity of the females was 1375.4 (±104) cm3 (range: 1203-1678 cm3). This study showed that the males had a mean cranial capacity that was 7% greater than that of the females in this study. The average cranial capacity of the males between the ages of 31 and 40 years was statistically significantly larger to that of the males aged 61-80 (p<0.05).
		+
		+	Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the average cranial capacity of the males was larger than that of the females. These study results can help to determine the normal cranial capacity of adults in Saudi Arabia. Further work should be carried out to aid in establishing reference data for the Saudi population.

		+
		+	'''Abstract:'''
		+	X-ray micro-CT has been used to study the tracheal system of Pre and Post hibernation Queen wasps (Vespula vulgaris) and their workers. We have compared our findings in wasps with Snodgrass's description of the tracheal system of the honeybee as characterised by anatomical dissection. Our images, whilst broadly similar, identify the tracheal system as being considerably more complex than previously suggested. One of the 30 wasps imaged had a markedly different, previously undescribed tracheal system. Since completing this study, a large micro-CT study from the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) has been published. This used different software, [http://www.slicer.org '''3D Slicer'''] and analysed 16bit digital data. We have compared our methods with that described in the AMNH publication, adopted their suggested nomenclature and have made recommendations for future studies.

 '''Abstract:'''
 Surgeons used to be unaware of the facial nerve's position during parotid surgery. Now, with special magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences, it can be located and converted into a 3D model displayed on an augmented reality (AR) device for surgeons to study and manipulate. This study explores the accuracy and usefulness of the technique for the treatment of benign and malignant parotid tumours. A total of 20 patients with parotid tumours had 3-Tesla MRI scans, and their anatomical structures were segmented using [http://www.slicer.org '''3D Slicer'''] software. The structures were imported into a Microsoft HoloLens 2® device, displayed in 3D, and shown to the patient for consent. Intraoperative video recording was used to record the position of the facial nerve in relation to the tumour. The predicted path of the nerve taken from the 3D model was combined with surgical observation and video recording in all cases. The imaging proved to have application in both benign and malignant disease. It also improved the process of informed patient consent. Three-dimensional MRI imaging of the facial nerve within the parotid gland and its display in a 3D model is an innovative technique for parotid surgery. Surgeons can now see the nerve's position and tailor their approach to each patient's tumour, providing personalised care. The technique eliminates the surgeon's blind spot and is a significant advantage in parotid surgery.

 Conclusions: Pectoralis muscle area measured at T4 level with 3-D slicer was closely associated with adverse outcomes (mortality, ICU stay) in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Since early treatment methods for COVID-19 are being evaluated, this method may be a useful adjunct to clinical decision making in regard to prioritization.
