Normann, Richard A.; Shah, Maulik R. | Study of printed spiral coils for neuroprosthetic transcranial telemetry applications | We have explored the use of printed spiral coils (PSC's) for neuroprosthetic transcranial telemetry applications. We fabricated two-dimensional PSC's on a thin (25 microns) polyimide substrate using copper (35 microns) as a conducting material. All the coils had a fixed inner diameter of 1.0 cm.

Wever Pinzon, Omar Enrique | Sudden cardiac death in young competitive athletes due to genetic cardiac abnormalities | Sudden cardiac death (SCD) in young athletes is generally caused by inherited cardiac disorders. While these events are relatively few compared to other cardiac deaths, they are tragic in that death occurs in a young, otherwise healthy person. The genetic abnormalities most associated with SCD are h... | | 2009 |

Camp, Nicola J. | SumLINK statistic for linkage analysis: application to the ICPCG pooled linkage resource | We propose a novel, genome-wide, linkagebased statistic, "sumLINK," for identification of disease susceptibility loci. Our approach focuses primarily on "linked" pedigrees (those with pedigree-specific LOD ? 0.588; equivalent to unadjusted p ? 0.05) to identify regions of extreme consistency across ... | SumLINK; Linkage analysis; ICPCG; Disease susceptibility loci; Trapeze Interactive Poster | 2009 |

Couldwell, William T. | Surgical approaches for resection of vestibular schwannomas: Translabyrinthine, retrosigmoid, and middle fossa approaches | Surgical removal remains one of the key treatment modalities for vestibular schwannomas. A team approach between a neurotologist and a neurosurgeon offers the patient the expertise of both specialties and maximizes the chances for an optimal outcome. Vestibular schwannomas can typically be resected ... | | 2012-01-01 |

Couldwell, William T.; House, Paul A.; Salzman, Karen L.; Osborne, Anne G.; MacDonald, Joel D.; Jensen, Randy L. | Surgical considerations regarding giant dilations of the perivascular spaces | Object. Dilations of brain perivascular spaces (PVSs), also known as Virchow-Robin spaces, are routinely identified on magnetic resonance imaging studies of the brain and recognized as benign normal variants. Giant dilations occur only rarely and can be easily misdiagnosed as central nervous system ... | | 2004 |

Couldwell, William T. | Surgical fidelity: comparing the microscope and the endoscope | Background: Both the microscope and the endoscope are widely used as visualization tools in neurosurgery; however, surgical dexterity when operating with endoscopic visual control may differ. The aim of this study was to compare the surgical fidelity when using each of these visualization tools. Met... | | 2013-01-01 |
