BACKGROUND: Osteophytes are commonly used to diagnose and guide knee osteoarthritis (OA) treatment, but their causes are unclear. Although they are not typically the focus of knee arthroplasty surgeons, they can predict case difficulty and length. Fu...

BACKGROUND: For knee osteoarthritis patients, analyzing alignment of lower limbs is essential for therapy, which is currently measured from standing long-leg radiographs of anteroposterior X-ray (LLR) manually. To address the time wasting, poor repro...
BACKGROUND: As the population ages, the rates of hip diseases and fragility fractures are increasing, making total hip arthroplasty (THA) one of the best methods for treating elderly patients. With the increasing number of THA surgeries and diverse s...
The present article concentrates on an innovative analysis that was performed to assess the development of the femur in human fetuses using artificial intelligence. As a prerequisite, linear dimensions, cross-sectional surface areas and volumes of th...
Full-length radiographs contain information from which many anatomical parameters of the pelvis, femur, and tibia may be derived, but only a few anatomical parameters are used for musculoskeletal modeling. This study aimed to develop a fully automati...
