A real-time automated bone age assessment system based on the RUS-CHN method.

Frontiers in endocrinology
BACKGROUND: Bone age is the age of skeletal development and is a direct indicator of physical growth and development in children. Most bone age assessment (BAA) systems use direct regression with the entire hand bone map or first segmenting the regio...

A semi-autonomous robot control based on bone layer transition detection for a safe pedicle tapping.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Automatic robotic platforms for robot-aided spinal surgery are mostly employed for drilling the pedicle screw path and do not adapt the tool rotational speed depending on the variation of the bone density. This feature is highly desirable in...

Advances in materials-based therapeutic strategies against osteoporosis.

Biomaterials
Osteoporosis is caused by the disruption in homeostasis between bone formation and bone resorption. Conventional management of osteoporosis involves systematic drug administration and hormonal therapy. These treatment strategies have limited curative...

Self-Supervised Learning for Non-Rigid Registration Between Near-Isometric 3D Surfaces in Medical Imaging.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Non-rigid registration between 3D surfaces is an important but notorious problem in medical imaging, because finding correspondences between non-isometric instances is mathematically non-trivial. We propose a novel self-supervised method to learn sha...

Original research: utilization of a convolutional neural network for automated detection of lytic spinal lesions on body CTs.

Skeletal radiology
OBJECTIVE: To develop, train, and test a convolutional neural network (CNN) for detection of spinal lytic lesions in chest, abdomen, and pelvis CT scans.

Prediction of Bone Healing around Dental Implants in Various Boundary Conditions by Deep Learning Network.

International journal of molecular sciences
Tissue differentiation varies based on patients' conditions, such as occlusal force and bone properties. Thus, the design of the implants needs to take these conditions into account to improve osseointegration. However, the efficiency of the design p...

Bone collision detection method for robot assisted fracture reduction based on vibration excitation.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: In the process of robotic fracture reduction, there is a risk of unintended collision of broken bones, which is not conducive to ensuring the safety of the reduction system. In order to solve this problem, this paper propose...

Auto-segmentation of important centers of growth in the pediatric skeleton to consider during radiation therapy based on deep learning.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Routinely delineating of important skeletal growth centers is imperative to mitigate radiation-induced growth abnormalities for pediatric cancer patients treated with radiotherapy. However, it is hindered by several practical problems, in...

Label-free intraoperative histology of bone tissue via deep-learning-assisted ultraviolet photoacoustic microscopy.

Nature biomedical engineering
Obtaining frozen sections of bone tissue for intraoperative examination is challenging. To identify the bony edge of resection, orthopaedic oncologists therefore rely on pre-operative X-ray computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. However, ...

Bone segmentation in contrast enhanced whole-body computed tomography.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
Segmentation of bone regions allows for enhanced diagnostics, disease characterisation and treatment monitoring in CT imaging. In contrast enhanced whole-body scans accurate automatic segmentation is particularly difficult as low dose whole body prot...
