Materials with electroprogrammable stiffness and adhesion can enhance the performance of robotic systems, but achieving large changes in stiffness and adhesive forces in real time is an ongoing challenge. Electroadhesive clutches can rapidly adhere h...
OBJECTIVES: To assess how an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm performs against five experienced musculoskeletal radiologists in diagnosing scaphoid fractures and whether it aids their diagnosis on conventional multi-view radiographs.
There is no consensus regarding the optimal treatment for unstable hangman's fractures. Conservative treatment, although time-consuming and associated with complications such as nonunion, neck stiffness, and pseudarthrosis formation, is still preferr...
OBJECTIVE: Currently, minimally invasive internal fixation is recommended for the surgical treatment of unstable pelvic fractures. The premise and difficulty of minimally invasive internal fixation are minimally invasive reduction of fractures. This ...
INTRODUCTION: The use of biologic adjuvants (orthobiologics) is becoming commonplace in orthopaedic surgery. Among other applications, biologics are often added to enhance fusion rates in spinal surgery and to promote bone healing in complex fracture...

PURPOSE: The use of computed tomography (CT) in fractures is time consuming, challenging and suffers from poor inter-surgeon reliability. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs), a subset of artificial intelligence (AI), may overcome shortcomings and re...
BACKGROUND: There has been increased development of robotic technologies for the accuracy of percutaneous pedicle screw placement. However, it remains unclear whether the robot really optimize the selection of screw sizes and enhance screw stability....

OBJECTIVE: There are more and more basketball competitions, to propose a classification method of thoracolumbar fractures to assist in the diagnosis of basketball injuries, to analyze the feasibility of its clinical application, and to improve the re...
BACKGROUND: As the number of conventional radiographic examinations in pediatric emergency departments increases, so, too, does the number of reading errors by radiologists.
