In this paper, we review the state-of-the-art approaches for knee articular cartilage segmentation from conventional techniques to deep learning (DL) based techniques. Knee articular cartilage segmentation on magnetic resonance (MR) images is of grea...
The tracking of the knee femoral condyle cartilage during ultrasound-guided minimally invasive procedures is important to avoid damaging this structure during such interventions. In this study, we propose a new deep learning method to track, accurate...
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgery used in the treatment of intra-articular knee pathology which may cause unintended damage to femoral cartilage. An ultrasound (US)-guided autonomous robotic platform for knee arthroscopy can be envisio...
BACKGROUND: The variation in articular cartilage thickness (ACT) in healthy knees is difficult to quantify and therefore poorly documented. Our aims are to (1) define how machine learning (ML) algorithms can automate the segmentation and measurement ...
OBJECTIVE: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a heterogeneous condition representing a variety of potentially distinct phenotypes. The purpose of this study was to apply innovative machine learning approaches to KOA phenotyping in order to define progressi...
OBJECTIVE: We aim to study to what extent conventional and deep-learning-based T relaxometry patterns are able to distinguish between knees with and without radiographic osteoarthritis (OA).
We present a method for the automated segmentation of knee bones and cartilage from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that combines a priori knowledge of anatomical shape with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The proposed approach incorporates 3D...

BACKGROUND: Semiquantitative assessment of MRI plays a central role in musculoskeletal research; however, in the clinical setting MRI reports often tend to be subjective and qualitative. Grading schemes utilized in research are not used because they ...
Purpose To determine the feasibility of using a deep learning approach to detect cartilage lesions (including cartilage softening, fibrillation, fissuring, focal defects, diffuse thinning due to cartilage degeneration, and acute cartilage injury) wit...
This paper explored the hidden biomedical information from knee magnetic resonance (MR) images for osteoarthritis (OA) prediction. We have computed the cartilage damage index (CDI) information from 36 informative locations on tibiofemoral cartilage c...
