Background. Pediatric medical information provision literature focuses on hospitalization and surgical procedures, but children would also benefit from an educational program regarding more commonly experienced medical procedures (e.g., needles, general check-up).Objective. To determine whether an evidence-based educational program reduced children’s ratings of fear of and expected pain from medical stimuli and increased their knowledge of procedural coping strategies.Methods.

The goal of conformal radiation techniques is to improve local tumor control through dose escalation to target volumes while at the same time sparing surrounding healthy tissue. Accurate target volume delineation is essential in achieving this goal to avoid inadequate tumor coverage and/or irradiation of an unnecessary volume of healthy tissue. Respiratory motion is known to be the largest intra-fractional organ motion and the most significant source of uncertainty in treatment planning for chest lesions.

The medical imaging data stream can be used for photogrammetric measurements of stent deformations. In this study, a method is proposed to couple FEA st

Abstract:
Training midlevel providers (midwives, nurses, and other nondoctor providers) to conduct surgical aspiration abortions and manage medical abortions has been proposed as a way of increasing women’s access to safe abortion in developing countries. It is important to know if abortion procedures administered by midlevel providers are more or less effective and safe than those administered by doctors.

Abstract:
The Growing Fear of Regulatory Overlap in AI-Driven Healthcare The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) has ignited discussions across the healthcare industry, especially among manufacturers of AI-powered medical devices. A major concern is whether these devices, already scrutinized under the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745, will now face an additional regulatory burden—a second certification under the AI Act. This would mean double the compliance costs, twice the paperwork, and unnecessary delays for market entry. This paper shows that double certification is redundant and is not
