The Cervical Vertebral Maturation (CVM) method aims to determine the craniofacial skeletal maturational stage, which is crucial for orthodontic and orthopedic treatment. In this paper, we explore the potential of deep learning for automatic CVM asses...
PURPOSE: To compare image quality and interobserver agreement in evaluations of neuroforaminal stenosis between 1.5T cervical spine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with deep learning reconstruction (DLR) and 3T MRI without DLR.
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop a fully automated artificial intelligence-aided cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) classification method based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to provide an auxiliary diagnosis for orthodontists.
INTRODUCTION: We aim to apply deep learning to achieve fully automated detection and classification of the Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) stages. We propose an innovative custom-designed deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with a built-in se...
PURPOSE: To investigate whether the image quality of a specific deep learning-based synthetic CT (sCT) of the cervical spine is noninferior to conventional CT.
BACKGROUND: Extended postoperative hospital stays are associated with numerous clinical risks and increased economic cost. Accurate preoperative prediction of extended length of stay (LOS) can facilitate targeted interventions to mitigate clinical ha...
Cervical vertebral landmark detection is a significant pre-task for vertebral relative motion parameter measurement, which is helpful for doctors to diagnose cervical spine diseases. Accurate cervical vertebral landmark detection could provide reliab...
BACKGROUND: A high false-negative rate has been reported for the diagnosis of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) using plain radiography. We investigated whether deep learning (DL) can improve the diagnostic performance of rad...
