BACKGROUND The internet offers major opportunities in supporting mental health care, and a variety of technology-mediated mental and behavioral health services have been developed. Yet, despite growing evidence for the effectiveness of these services, their acceptance and use in clinical practice remains low. So far, the current literature still lacks a structured insight into the experienced drivers and barriers to the adoption of electronic mental health (eMental health) from the perspective of clinical psychologists. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to gain an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of the drivers and barriers for psychologists in adopting eMental health tools, adding to previous work by also assessing drivers and analyzing relationships among these factors, and subsequently by developing a structured representation of the obtained findings. METHODS The study adopted a qualitative descriptive approach consisting of in-depth semistructured interviews with clinical psychologists working in the Netherlands (N=12). On the basis of the findings, a model was constructed that was then examined through a communicative validation. RESULTS In general, a key driver for psychologists to adopt eMental health is the belief and experience that it can be beneficial to them or their clients. Perceived advantages that are novel to literature include the acceleration of the treatment process, increased intimacy of the therapeutic relationship, and new treatment possibilities due to eMental health. More importantly, a relation was found between the extent to which psychologists have adopted eMental health and the particular drivers and barriers they experience. This differentiation is incorporated in the Levels of Adoption of eMental Health (LAMH) model that was developed during this study to provide a structured representation of the factors that influence the adoption of eMental health. CONCLUSIONS The study identified both barriers and drivers, several of which are new to the literature and found a relationship between the nature and importance of the various drivers and barriers perceived by psychologists and the extent to which they have adopted eMental health. These findings were structured in a conceptual model to further enhance the current understanding. The LAMH model facilitates further research on the process of adopting eMental health, which will subsequently enable targeted recommendations with respect to technology, training, and clinical practice to ensure that mental health care professionals as well as their clients will benefit optimally from the current (and future) range of available eMental health options.

SummaryThe accurate and clear reporting of vertebral fractures in routine clinical practice is essential to ensure that patients with osteoporosis receive appropriate treatment to prevent the occurrence of further fractures. A statistical shape model-based vision system for semi-automated morphometry called MorphoXpress® has been developed and needs to be tested in routine clinical practice.This multi-centre medical practice evaluation pilot study compared the degree of agreement between two methods to detect vertebral body deformities in routine clinical practice: qualitative visual evaluation of conventional lateral thoracic and lumbar spine radiographs as a “gold standard” and the MorphoXpress® semi-automatic software system for vertebral morphometry.This pilot study was performed in seven participating osteo-centers in Germany. The analysis included 223 ambulatory patients with 446 conventional lateral thoracic (n = 223) and lumbar (n = 223) spine radiographs showing 2676 vertebrae from T5 to L4. Qualitative visual radiograph evaluation was performed by clinician experts, who classified vertebral shape as fractured or not fractured. MorphoXpress® was used for quantitative assessment of vertebral height in digitized radiographs by localising all morphometric points within the set range of vertebrae based on a statistical model-based vision system. Using the interactive tools in Morpho Xpress→, clinicians could refine the positions of morphometric points to their satisfaction. Agreement between the two methods was analyzed.Using qualitative visual radiograph evaluation, clinicians recognised fractures in 92 (41.3 %) patients while quantitative evaluation with MorphoXpress®with interactive manual corrections detected fractures in 85 (38.1 %) patients. Distribution of fractures was comparable using the two methods. The Morpho Xpress→ system alone identified 76 % of the fractured vertebrae correctly. This result was improved to 98 % using additional manual corrections by the clinician once. The overall mean time needed for MorphoXpress® fracture morphometric assessment of vertebral fractures in clinical practice took 13 minutes and 36 seconds.Quantitative measurement using the current version of the MorphoXpress® software system for vertebral morphometry in combination with qualitative interactive corrections by clinicians seems to be a valuable tool for assessment and follow-up documentation of osteoporotic vertebral deformities in patients without severe scoliosis in epidemiological studies and clinical drug trials only. Currently the technique is too timeconsuming and only after significant improvement of the procedure time and following appropriate training for physicians, MorphoXpress® vertebral morphometry could be a valuable tool in daily routine clinical use for osteoporotic patients.

Abstract In the Netherlands, the model-based approach is used to identify patients with head and neck cancer who may benefit most from proton therapy in terms of prevention of late radiation-induced side effects in comparison with photon therapy. To this purpose, a National Indication Protocol Proton therapy for Head and Neck Cancer patients (NIPP-HNC) was developed, which has been approved by the health care authorities. When patients qualify according to the guidelines of the NIPP-HNC, proton therapy is fully reimbursed. This article describes the procedures that were followed to develop this NIPP-HNC and provides all necessary information to introduce model-based selection for patients with head and neck cancer into routine clinical practice.
