BACKGROUND CONTEXT: There is considerable variability in patient-reported outcome measures following surgery for lumbar disc herniation. Individualized prediction tools that are derived from center- or even surgeon-specific data could provide valuabl...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: According to guidelines, endoscopic resection should only be performed for patients whose early gastric cancer invasion depth is within the mucosa or submucosa of the stomach regardless of lymph node involvement. The accurate pre...
Knowledge about the thickness of the cortical bone is of high interest for fracture risk assessment. Most finite element model solutions overlook this information because of the coarse resolution of the CT images. To circumvent this limitation, a thr...
Human functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data are acquired while participants engage in diverse perceptual, motor, cognitive, and emotional tasks. Although data are acquired temporally, they are most often treated in a quasi-static manner. ...
BACKGROUND: Detection of ossification areas of hand bones in X-ray images is an important task, e.g. as a preprocessing step in automated bone age estimation. Deep neural networks have emerged recently as de facto standard detection methods, but thei...
OBJECTIVES: Preoperative, noninvasive prediction of the meningioma grade is important because it influences the treatment strategy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of radiomics features of postcontrast T1-weighted images (T1C), app...
Differences between males and females have been extensively documented in biological, psychological, and behavioral domains. Among these, sex differences in the rate and typology of antisocial behavior remains one of the most conspicuous and enduring...
