INTRODUCTION: Age estimation, especially in adults, presents substantial challenges in different contexts ranging from forensic to clinical applications. Bone mineral density (BMD), with its distinct age-related variations, has emerged as a critical ...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) methods, including machine learning and deep learning, are increasingly applied in orthodontics for tasks like assessing skeletal maturity. Accurate timing of treatment is crucial, but traditional methods such...

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional spine deformity governed of the spine. A child's Risser stage of skeletal maturity must be carefully considered for AIS evaluation and treatment. However, there are intra-observer and inter...
This study aimed to develop image-analysis-based classification models for distinguishing individuals younger and older than 30 using the medial clavicle. We extracted 2D images of the medial clavicle from multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) scans...
OBJECTIVES: To date, AI-supported programs for bone age (BA) determination for medical use in Europe have almost only been validated separately, according to Greulich and Pyle (G&P). Therefore, the current study aimed to compare the performance of th...
OBJECTIVE: Age-at-death estimation is usually done manually by experts. As such, manual estimation is subjective and greatly depends on the past experience and proficiency of the expert. This becomes even more critical if experts need to evaluate ind...

Bone age estimation (BAE) is based on skeletal maturity and degenerative process of the skeleton. The clinical importance of BAE is in understanding the pediatric and growth-related disorders; whereas medicolegally it is important in determining crim...
Accurately estimating biological age is beneficial for measuring aging and predicting risk. It is widely accepted that the prevalence of spine compression increases significantly with age. However, biological age based on vertebral morphological data...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to assess the accuracy of machine learning (ML) models with feature selection technique in classifying cervical vertebral maturation stages (CVMS). Consensus-based datasets were used for models training and evaluation for...
