In medical surgery, bone drilling is an inevitable procedure. The thermal necrosis in the drilling process can affect post-operative recovery. In this study, the method of drill bit precooling is proposed in bone drilling with robot assisted system. ...
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to compare the deep learning-based (VSBONE BSI) and atlas-based (BONENAVI) segmentation accuracy that have been developed to measure the bone scan index based on skeletal segmentation.
PURPOSE: Computed tomography (CT) is a technique of choice to image bone structure at different scales. Methods to enhance the quality of degraded reconstructions obtained from low-dose CT data have shown impressive results recently, especially in th...
BACKGROUND: Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare and underdiagnosed condition characterized by deficient bone and teeth mineralization. The aim of this study was first, to evaluate the diagnostic utility of employing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) threshold ...
Three-photon excitation has recently been demonstrated as an effective method to perform intravital microscopy in deep, previously inaccessible regions of the mouse brain. The applicability of 3-photon excitation for deep imaging of other, more heter...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Bone suppression images (BSIs) of chest radiographs (CXRs) have been proven to improve diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. To acquire BSIs, dual-energy subtraction (DES) or a deep-learning-based model trained with DES-based BSI...
This paper proposes a deep-learning-based image enhancement approach that can generate high-resolution micro-CT-like images from multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). A total of 12,500 MDCT and micro-CT image pairs were obtained from 25 vertebral...
Cerebral palsy is a neurological condition that is known to affect muscle growth. Detailed investigations of muscle growth require segmentation of muscles from MRI scans, which is typically done manually. In this study, we evaluated the performance o...
