Precision lead collimator construction.

Abstract

A novel fabrication technique is described based on stacking accurately drilled lead discs to form collimators for rectilinear scanning. This technique has proved successful for the construction of collimators across a wide range of imaging performance.

A new oral surgery teaching model.

An anatomical model for teaching the practical aspects of routine oral surgery in a clinical or laboratory environment, is described. Replaceable sections allow the model to be rapidly re-used so that successive students may practise procedures such as incisions, flap reflection, bone removal, tooth removal, apicectomy and suturing. Keeping the cost per procedure to a minimum was considered to be of fundamental importance and this has been achieved through the use of 'factory produced' replacement parts.
