- The work has developed a non-x-ray method of screening for bone fracture. The work is highly innovative and has been carried out in collaboration with Sheffield Children's Hospital and Sheffield University. Although this paper refers to vertebra fracture, we have since extended the technology to wrist fracture that is common in children (see paper: Reed, Saatchi, Burke & Ramlakhan). 2020 Infrared thermal imaging as a screening tool for paediatric wrist fractures. Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing, 58(7):1549-1563). Based on the finding of the paper, £20,000 funding from Grow MedTech was awarded to further extend the technology to toddler's fracture.
