PURPOSE: Advancements of deep learning in medical imaging are often constrained by the limited availability of large, annotated datasets, resulting in underperforming models when deployed under real-world conditions. This study investigated a generat...
BACKGROUND: Ultrasound (US) has great potential for application in computer-assisted orthopedic surgery (CAOS) due to its non-radiative, cost-effective, and portable traits. However, bone segmentation from low-quality US images has been challenging. ...
BACKGROUND: Histomorphometry is currently the gold standard for bone microarchitectural examinations. This relies on two-dimensional (2D) sections to deduce the spatial properties of structures. Micromorphometric parameters are calculated from these ...
Oracle bone script, one of the earliest known forms of ancient Chinese writing, presents invaluable research materials for scholars studying the humanities and geography of the Shang Dynasty, dating back 3,000 years. The immense historical and cultur...
Bone and cartilage tissues are physiologically dynamic organs that are systematically regulated by mechanical inputs. At cellular level, mechanical stimulation engages an intricate network where mechano-sensors and transmitters cooperate to manipulat...
Bone segmentation is an important step to perform biomechanical failure load simulations on in-vivo CT data of patients with bone metastasis, as it is a mandatory operation to obtain meshes needed for numerical simulations. Segmentation can be a tedi...

Bone metastasis, emerging oncological therapies, and osteoporosis represent some of the distinct clinical contexts which can result in morphological alterations in bone structure. The visual assessment of these changes through anatomical images is co...
BACKGROUND: The application of deep learning methods in rapid bone scintigraphy is increasingly promising for minimizing the duration of SPECT examinations. Recent works showed several deep learning models based on simulated data for the synthesis of...
OBJECTIVE: Blurry medical images affect the accuracy and efficiency of multimodal image registration, whose existing methods require further improvement.
