Deep learning-based sex estimation of 3D hyoid bone models in a Croatian population using adapted PointNet++ network.

Scientific reports
This study investigates a deep learning approach for sex estimation using 3D hyoid bone models derived from computed tomography (CT) scans of a Croatian population. We analyzed 202 hyoid samples (101 male, 101 female), converting CT-derived meshes in...

Automated 3D segmentation of the hyoid bone in CBCT using nnU-Net v2: a retrospective study on model performance and potential clinical utility.

BMC medical imaging
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify the hyoid bone (HB) using the nnU-Net based artificial intelligence (AI) model in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images and assess the model's success in automatic segmentation.

Conventional and machine learning-based analysis of age, body weight and body height significance in knot position-related thyrohyoid and cervical spine fractures in suicidal hangings.

International journal of legal medicine
The thyrohyoid complex and cervical spine fracture distribution patterns may reflect the knot position as the force distribution by the noose to different neck regions may vary depending on it. Recently, machine learning models (MLm) were used to cla...

Artificial intelligence model for predicting sexual dimorphism through the hyoid bone in adult patients.

PloS one
The objective of this study was to develop a predictive model using supervised machine learning to determine sex based on the dimensions of the hyoid bone. Lateral cephalometric radiographs of 495 patients were analyzed, collecting the horizontal and...

Automatic Tracking of Hyoid Bone Displacement and Rotation Relative to Cervical Vertebrae in Videofluoroscopic Swallow Studies Using Deep Learning.

Journal of imaging informatics in medicine
The hyoid bone displacement and rotation are critical kinematic events of the swallowing process in the assessment of videofluoroscopic swallow studies (VFSS). However, the quantitative analysis of such events requires frame-by-frame manual annotatio...

Sex estimation from the hyoid bone measurements in an adult Eastern Turkish population using 3D CT images, discriminant function analysis, support vector machines, and artificial neural networks☆.

Legal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)
The hyoid bone is one of the bones in the human body that shows sexual dimorphism. The anthropological and anthropometric characteristics that determine sexual dimorphism are influenced by demographic differences. The aim of this study was to investi...

Avascular midline oropharyngeal anatomy allows for expanded indications for transoral robotic surgery in pediatric patients.

Journal of robotic surgery
Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in children is in its infancy, and indications have been primarily limited to lingual tonsillar hypertrophy and superficial mucosal lesions. However, the relatively avascular channel of the midline posterior tongue, v...

Transoral robotic excision of thyroglossal duct cyst using vestibular and sublingual incisions.

Head & neck
With the extension of remote-access head and neck surgery to improve postoperative cosmetic outcomes, a robotic or endoscopic procedure was developed to excise thyroglossal duct cysts (TGDCs). Here, we present the operative procedure of a novel trans...

Deep Learning for Automatic Hyoid Tracking in Videofluoroscopic Swallow Studies.

Dysphagia
The hyoid bone excursion is one of the most important gauges of larynx elevation in swallowing, contributing to airway protection and bolus passage into the esophagus. However, the implications of various parameters of hyoid bone excursion, such as t...
