Vision Transformer for femur fracture classification.

Injury
INTRODUCTION: In recent years, the scientific community focused on developing Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) tools that could improve clinicians' bone fractures diagnosis, primarily based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). However, the discerni...

Detection of incomplete atypical femoral fracture on anteroposterior radiographs via explainable artificial intelligence.

Scientific reports
One of the key aspects of the diagnosis and treatment of atypical femoral fractures is the early detection of incomplete fractures and the prevention of their progression to complete fractures. However, an incomplete atypical femoral fracture can be ...

Deep-Learning Automation of Preoperative Radiographic Parameters Associated With Early Periprosthetic Femur Fracture After Total Hip Arthroplasty.

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: The radiographic assessment of bone morphology impacts implant selection and fixation type in total hip arthroplasty (THA) and is important to minimize the risk of periprosthetic femur fracture (PFF). We utilized a deep-learning algorithm...

Fusion of electronic health records and radiographic images for a multimodal deep learning prediction model of atypical femur fractures.

Computers in biology and medicine
Atypical femur fractures (AFF) represent a very rare type of fracture that can be difficult to discriminate radiologically from normal femur fractures (NFF). AFFs are associated with drugs that are administered to prevent osteoporosis-related fragili...

Robot Navigation System Assisted PFNA Fixation of Femoral Intertrochanteric Fractures in the Elderly: A Retrospective Clinical Study.

Clinical interventions in aging
OBJECTIVE: The incidence of hip fracture in the elderly is increasing. Robot navigation technology has the advantages of minimally invasive and accurate. To explore the difference between the clinical effects of proximal femoral anti-rotation intrame...

Proximal femur fracture detection on plain radiography via feature pyramid networks.

Scientific reports
Hip fractures exceed 250,000 cases annually in the United States, with the worldwide incidence projected to increase by 240-310% by 2050. Hip fractures are predominantly diagnosed by radiologist review of radiographs. In this study, we developed a de...

AFFnet - a deep convolutional neural network for the detection of atypical femur fractures from anteriorposterior radiographs.

Bone
Despite well-defined criteria for radiographic diagnosis of atypical femur fractures (AFFs), missed and delayed diagnosis is common. An AFF diagnostic software could provide timely AFF detection to prevent progression of incomplete or development of ...

Better Rough Than Scarce: Proximal Femur Fracture Segmentation With Rough Annotations.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Proximal femoral fracture segmentation in computed tomography (CT) is essential in the preoperative planning of orthopedic surgeons. Recently, numerous deep learning-based approaches have been proposed for segmenting various structures within CT scan...

[An experimental study on distal locking of femoral intramedullary nail assisted by an intelligent orthopedic robot].

Zhongguo xiu fu chong jian wai ke za zhi = Zhongguo xiufu chongjian waike zazhi = Chinese journal of reparative and reconstructive surgery
OBJECTIVE: To explore the advantages and effectiveness of the independently developed intelligent orthopedic robot-assisted distal locking of femoral intramedullary nails.

Predicting strength of femora with metastatic lesions from single 2D radiographic projections using convolutional neural networks.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Patients with metastatic bone disease are at risk of pathological femoral fractures and may require prophylactic surgical fixation. Current clinical decision support tools often overestimate fracture risk, leading to overtre...
