Latest AI and machine learning research in orthopedics for healthcare professionals.
OBJECTIVE: In this proof-of-concept study, we aimed to develop deep-learning-based classifiers to identify rib fractures on frontal chest radiographs in children under 2 years of age.
Cannulated screw fixation is the main therapy for femoral neck fractures, especially in young patients. The traditional surgical procedure uses C-arm fluoroscopy to place the screw freehand and requires several guide wire adjustments, which increases the operation time and radiation exposure. Repeated drilling can also cause damage to the blood supply and bone quality of the femoral neck, which ca...
PURPOSE: A deep learning framework to differentiate glaucomatous optic disc changes due to glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON) from non-glaucomatous o...
OBJECTIVE: Quantitative analysis of the volume and shape of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) requires accu...
OBJECTIVE: Perilunate injuries are rare but devastating carpal injuries. The treatment of perilunate injuries remains challenging and contentious. Thi...
Non-invasive methods to document healing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) structural properties could potentially identify patients at risk for revisi...
