Automated cortical thickness measurement of the mandibular condyle head on CBCT images using a deep learning method.

Scientific reports
This study proposes a deep learning model for cortical bone segmentation in the mandibular condyle head using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and an automated method for measuring cortical thickness with a color display based on the segmentation...

Deep Learning Analysis of Ultrasonic Guided Waves for Cortical Bone Characterization.

IEEE transactions on ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control
Ultrasonic guided waves (UGWs) propagating in the long cortical bone can be measured via the axial transmission method. The characterization of long cortical bone using UGW is a multiparameter inverse problem. The optimal solution of the inverse prob...

Compact Bone Surgery Robot With a High-Resolution and High-Rigidity Remote Center of Motion Mechanism.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Two important and difficult tasks during a bone drilling procedure are guiding the orientation of the drilling axis toward the target and maintaining the orientation against the drilling force. To accomplish these tasks, a remote center of...

Artificial neural network to estimate micro-architectural properties of cortical bone using ultrasonic attenuation: A 2-D numerical study.

Computers in biology and medicine
The goal of this study is to estimate micro-architectural parameters of cortical porosity such as pore diameter (φ), pore density (ρ) and porosity (ν) of cortical bone from ultrasound frequency dependent attenuation using an artificial neural network...

A study of intracortical porosity's area fractions and aspect ratios using computer vision and pulse-coupled neural networks.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Employing computer vision (CV) and optimized pulse-coupled neural networks (PCNN), this work automatically quantifies the geometrical attributes of intracortical bone porosity (namely lacunae and canaliculi (L-C), Haversian canals, and resorption cav...

Assessment of cortical bone fracture resistance curves by fusing artificial neural networks and linear regression.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Bone injures (BI) represents one of the major health problems, together with cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Assessment of the risks associated with BI is nontrivial since fragility of human cortical bone is varying with age. Due to restrictions ...

Geometric-attributes-based segmentation of cortical bone slides using optimized neural networks.

Journal of bone and mineral metabolism
In cortical bone, solid (lamellar and interstitial) matrix occupies space left over by porous microfeatures such as Haversian canals, lacunae, and canaliculi-containing clusters. In this work, pulse-coupled neural networks (PCNN) were used to automat...
