Computer assisted orthopaedic surgical system for insertion of distal locking screws in intra-medullary nails: a valid and reliable navigation system (2005)
Journal Article
Malek, S., Phillips, R., Mohsen, A., Viant, W., Bielby, M., & Sherman, K. (2005). Computer assisted orthopaedic surgical system for insertion of distal locking screws in intra-medullary nails: a valid and reliable navigation system. International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, 1(4), 34-44. https://doi.org/10.1002/rcs.54

The insertion of distal locking screws is a difficult task in intra-medullary (IM) nailing operations of long bones and contributes a significant proportion to the overall operating time. The current technique to insert these screws uses numerous flu...

Book Chapter
Phillips, R., Mohsen, A., Viant, W., Malek, S., Li, Q., Shah, N., Bielby, M., & Sherman, K. (2004). A phantom based approach to fluoroscopic navigation for orthopaedic surgery. In Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention – MICCAI 2004; Lecture Notes in Computer Science (621-628). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-30136-3_76

The use of the C-arm fluoroscope for surgical navigation in various Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery Systems (CAOS) has been an important success of research into CAOS technology. To use the fluoroscope for quantitative surgical navigation invol... Read More about A phantom based approach to fluoroscopic navigation for orthopaedic surgery.

Thioglycosylated cationic porphyrins––convenient synthesis and photodynamic activity in vitro (2004)
Journal Article
Ahmed, S., Davoust, E., Savoie, H., Boa, A. N., & Boyle, R. W. (2004). Thioglycosylated cationic porphyrins––convenient synthesis and photodynamic activity in vitro. Tetrahedron letters; the international organ for the rapid publication of preliminary communications in organic chemistry, 45(31), 6045-6047. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tetlet.2004.06.021

A convenient and flexible synthesis of meso-tetraaryl porphyrins substituted with three thioglycosyl units, and also bearing one pyridyl substituent is reported. Quaternisation of the pyridine nitrogen with alkyl iodides gives access to a range of wa...

Photopolymerization studies of a light-emitting liquid crystal with methacrylate reactive groups for electroluminescence
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Woon, K. L., Liedtke, A., O'Neill, M., Aldred, M. P., Kitney, S. P., Vlachos, P., Bruneau, A., & Kelly, S. M. Photopolymerization studies of a light-emitting liquid crystal with methacrylate reactive groups for electroluminescence. Paper presented at Liquid Crystals XII

Light-emitting reactive mesogens are promising materials for photolithographically processable organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). We study the photopolymerization of a fluorene-based mesogen with methacrylate photoreactive groups. We find that th...
