BACKGROUND: Vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) images are acquired in dual-energy (DE) or single-energy (SE) scan modes. Automated identification of vertebral compression fractures, from VFA images acquired using GE Healthcare scanners in DE mode, h...
Precise segmentation and anatomical identification of the vertebrae provides the basis for automatic analysis of the spine, such as detection of vertebral compression fractures or other abnormalities. Most dedicated spine CT and MR scans as well as s...
OBJECTIVEIntravertebral augmentation (IVA) is a reliable minimally invasive technique for treating Magerl type A vertebral body fractures. However, poor correction of kyphotic angulation, the risk of cement leakage, and significant exposure to radiat...

Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) are common and indicate a high future risk of additional osteoporotic fractures. However, many VCFs are unreported by radiologists, and even if reported, many patients do not receive treatment. The purpose of th...
AIM: Spinal fractures, particularly vertebral compression fractures, pose a significant challenge in medical imaging due to their small-scale nature and blurred boundaries in Computed Tomography (CT) scans. However, advanced deep learning models, suc...
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes and accuracy of robot-assisted (RA) versus fluoroscopy-guided (FG) pedicle screw fixation of thoracolumbar compression fractures. We retrospectively enrolled 85 patients with surgically treate...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of orthopedic robot with modified tracer fixation (short for modified orthopedic robot) assisted percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in treatment of single-segment osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF)...
BACKGROUND: Despite percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) being widely used to treat osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs), the details of puncture are still controversial. With the development of surgical robots in spine surgery, robotic-ass...
