Outcome-adaptive randomization in clinical trials: issues of participant welfare and autonomy (2019)
Journal Article
Sim. (2019). Outcome-adaptive randomization in clinical trials: issues of participant welfare and autonomy. Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics, 40, 83 -101. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11017-019-09481-0

Outcome-adaptive randomization (OAR) has been proposed as a corrective to certain ethical difficulties inherent in the traditional randomized clinical trial (RCT) using fixed-ratio randomization. In particular, it has been suggested that OAR redresse... Read More about Outcome-adaptive randomization in clinical trials: issues of participant welfare and autonomy.

Development of a simple numerical model for trabecular bone structures. (2019)
Journal Article
Peña-Solórzano, C., Albrecht, D., Paganin, D., Harris, P., Hall, C., Bassed, R., & Dimmock, M. (2019). Development of a simple numerical model for trabecular bone structures. Medical Physics, 1766 - 1776. https://doi.org/10.1002/mp.13435

PURPOSE: Advances in additive manufacturing processes are enabling the fabrication of surrogate bone structures for applications including use in high-resolution anthropomorphic phantoms. In this research, a simple numerical model is proposed that en... Read More about Development of a simple numerical model for trabecular bone structures..
