  • The validity of arterial measurements in a South African embalmed body population 
    Schoeman, Marelize; Van Schoor, Albert-Neels; Suleman, Farhana Ebrahim; Louw, Liebie; Du Toit, Peet J. (Springer, 2018-01)
    INTRODUCTION : Knowledge of the normal arterial diameter at a given anatomical point is the first step toward quantifying the severity of cardiovascular diseases. According to several studies, parameters such as weight, ...
  • The value of Tuffier's line for neonatal neuraxial procedures 
    Van Schoor, Albert-Neels; Bosman, Marius C.; Bosenberg, A.T. (Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-04)
    The spine of L4 usually lies on a line drawn between the highest points of the iliac crests (Tuffier’s line) in adults. Although its accuracy has been questioned, it is still commonly used to identify the spinous process ...
  • The value of Tuffier’s line for neonatal neuraxial procedures 
    Van Schoor, Albert-Neels; Bosman, Marius C.; Bosenberg, A.T. (Wiley, 2013-02-13)
    The spine of L4 usually lies on a line drawn between the highest points of the iliac crests (Tuffier’s line) in adults. Although its accuracy has been questioned, it is still commonly used to identify the spinous process ...
  • Veldt fires in South Africa : implications on osteometry and the biological profile 
    Liebenberg, Maritza; Liebenberg, Leandi; Kruger, Gabriele Christa; L'Abbe, Ericka Noelle (Wiley, 2023-03)
    Standard operating procedures for forensic anthropological analyses dictate that thermally altered remains should not be measured, hindering the creation of a biological profile. Few studies have addressed estimating ...
  • Vertebrae at the thoracolumbar junction : a quantitative assessment using CT scans 
    Du Plessis, Anneli; Van Schoor, Albert-Neels; Wessels, Quenton; Murphy, Patrick; Van Schouwenburg, Francois; Ihuhua, Pulenge; Kehrmann, Jana; Scholtz, Magda; Keough, Natalie (Wiley, 2022-06)
    The thoracolumbar junction is often associated with traumatic injuries, due to its biomechanical instability. Reasons for this instability are currently still under debate; however, contributing factors such as the rapid ...
  • Virtual forensic anthropology : the accuracy of osteometric analysis of 3D bone models derived from clinical computed tomography (CT) scans 
    Colman, Kerri L.; De Boer, Hans H.  ; Dobbe, Johannes G.G.; Liberton, Niels P.T.J.; Stull, Kyra Elizabeth; Van Eijnatten, Maureen; Streekstra, Geert J.; Oostra, Roelf-Jan; Van Rijn, Rick R.; Van der Merwe, Alie Emily (Elsevier, 2019-11)
    Clinical radiology is increasingly used as a source of data to test or develop forensic anthropological methods, especially in countries where contemporary skeletal collections are not available. Naturally, this requires ...
  • A war uncovered : human remains from Thabantšho (Maleoskop), South Africa 
    Boshoff, Willem Sterrenberg; Steyn, Maryna (South African Archaeological Society, 2008)
    Thabantšho (also known as Maleoskop) was a royal village, situated near the modern town of Groblersdal, Limpopo Province in South Africa. It is known to have been the residence of the Bakopa chief, Kgoši Boleu. Conflict ...
  • Whole blood ultrastructural alterations by mercury, nickel and manganese alone and in combination : an ex vivo investigation 
    Maseko, P.B.; Van Rooy, Mia-Jeanne; Taute, Helena; Venter, C.; Serem, June Cheptoo; Oberholzer, Hester Magdalena (Sage, 2021)
    The distribution of metals across the environment is increasingly becoming a major concern as they not only pollute the environment but also pose a danger to humans and animals. Human exposure to heavy metals often occurs ...
