Transhumeral percutaneous osseointegrated prostheses provide upper-extremity amputees with increased range of motion, more natural movement patterns, and enhanced proprioception. However, direct skeletal attachment of the endoprosthesis elevates the ...
In this study, we present a deep learning model for fracture classification on shoulder radiographs using a convolutional neural network (CNN). The primary aim was to evaluate the classification performance of the CNN for proximal humeral fractures (...
BACKGROUND: Medical screening using ultrasonography (US) has been performed on young baseball players for early detection of osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the humeral capitellum. Deep learning (DL) and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are...

PURPOSE: Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the humeral capitellum is a common cause of elbow disorders, particularly among young throwing athletes. Conservative treatment is the preferred treatment for managing OCD, and early intervention significan...

BACKGROUND: Ultrasonography is used to diagnose osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the humerus; however, its reliability depends on the technical proficiency of the examiner. Recently, computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) using deep learning has been appli...
Purpose To develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system for humeral tumor detection on chest radiographs (CRs) and evaluate the impact on reader performance. Materials and Methods In this retrospective study, 14 709 CRs (January 2000 to December 20...

A high failure rate is associated with fracture plates in proximal humerus fractures. The causes of failure remain unclear due to the complexity of the problem including the number and position of the screws, their length and orientation in the space...
BACKGROUND: Reduced bone density is recognized as a predictor for potential complications in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). While humeral and glenoid planning based on preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans assist in implant selection and ...
Sex estimation is an important part of skeletal analysis and forensic identification. Traditionally pelvic traits are utilized for accurate sex estimation. However, the long bones, especially humerus, have been proved to be as effective for determine...
PURPOSE: Accurate identification of radiographic landmarks is fundamental to characterizing glenohumeral relationships before and sequentially after shoulder arthroplasty, but manual annotation of these radiographs is laborious. We report on the use ...
