Distribution of interscan measurement error in AI-based 3D MRI analysis of knee cartilage thickness in osteoarthritis.

PloS one
PURPOSE: A novel AI-based 3D analysis system was developed to automatically extract bone and cartilage from MRI data and provide average cartilage thickness. This study aimed to analyze the interscan measurement error of knee cartilage thickness in o...

Nuclear morphometrics coupled with machine learning identifies dynamic states of senescence across age.

Nature communications
Cellular senescence is an irreversible state of cell cycle arrest with a complex role in tissue repair, aging, and disease. However, inconsistencies in identifying cellular senescence have led to varying conclusions about their functional significanc...

Quantitative ultrasound classification of healthy and chemically degraded ex-vivo cartilage.

Scientific reports
In this study, we explore the potential of ten quantitative (radiofrequency-based) ultrasound parameters to assess the progressive loss of collagen and proteoglycans, mimicking an osteoarthritis condition in ex-vivo bovine cartilage samples. Most ana...

Same-model and cross-model variability in knee cartilage thickness measurements using 3D MRI systems.

PloS one
PURPOSE: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) based three-dimensional analysis of knee cartilage has evolved to become fully automatic. However, when implementing these measurements across multiple clinical centers, scanner variability becomes a critical...

Contribution of Labrum and Cartilage to Joint Surface in Different Hip Deformities: An Automatic Deep Learning-Based 3-Dimensional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Analysis.

The American journal of sports medicine
BACKGROUND: Multiple 2-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have indicated that the size of the labrum adjusts in response to altered joint loading. In patients with hip dysplasia, it tends to increase as a compensatory mechanism for ...

Automated Detection of Microcracks Within Second Harmonic Generation Images of Cartilage Using Deep Learning.

Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society
Articular cartilage, essential for smooth joint movement, can sustain micrometer-scale microcracks in its collagen network from low-energy impacts previously considered non-injurious. These microcracks may propagate under cyclic loading, impairing ca...

A deep learning approach for automatic 3D segmentation of hip cartilage and labrum from direct hip MR arthrography.

Scientific reports
The objective was to use convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for automatic segmentation of hip cartilage and labrum based on 3D MRI. In this retrospective single-center study, CNNs with a U-Net architecture were used to develop a fully automated seg...

Visualizing Preosteoarthritis: Updates on UTE-Based Compositional MRI and Deep Learning Algorithms.

Journal of magnetic resonance imaging : JMRI
Osteoarthritis (OA) is heterogeneous and involves structural changes in the whole joint, such as cartilage, meniscus/labrum, ligaments, and tendons, mainly with short T2 relaxation times. Detecting OA before the onset of irreversible changes is cruci...

Cell quantification at the osteochondral interface from synchrotron radiation phase contrast micro-computed tomography images using a deep learning approach.

Scientific reports
Osteochondral interface consists of two tissues: the calcified cartilage (CC) containing chondrocytes, and subchondral bone (SCB) containing osteocytes that interact with each other. In this study, we propose a new method for the three-dimensional (3...

Machine Learning Approaches for the Fusion of Near-Infrared, Mid-Infrared, and Raman Data to Identify Cartilage Degradation in Human Osteochondral Plugs.

Applied spectroscopy
Vibrational spectroscopy methods such as mid-infrared (MIR), near-infrared (NIR), and Raman spectroscopies have been shown to have great potential for in vivo biomedical applications, such as arthroscopic evaluation of joint injuries and degeneration...
