A modular cage may prevent endplate damage and improve spinal deformity correction.

Clinical biomechanics (Bristol, Avon)
BACKGROUND: Anterior lumbar interbody fusion is performed to fuse pathological spinal segments, generally, with a monobloc cage inserted by impact forces. Recently developed three-part modular cages attempt to reduce the impact forces, minimize the d...

Automated measurement of pelvic parameters using convolutional neural network in complex spinal deformities: overcoming challenges in coronal deformity cases.

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Accurate and consistent measurement of sagittal alignment is challenging, particularly in patients with severe coronal deformities, including degenerative lumbar scoliosis (DLS).

Machine learning analysis of cervical balance in early-onset scoliosis post-growing rod surgery: a case-control study.

Scientific reports
We aimed to analyze the cervical sagittal alignment change following the growing rod treatment in early-onset scoliosis (EOS) and identify the risk factors of sagittal cervical imbalance after growing-rod surgery of machine learning. EOS patients fro...

Using machine learning to automatically measure kyphotic and lordotic angle measurements on radiographs for children with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Medical engineering & physics
Measuring the kyphotic angle (KA) and lordotic angle (LA) on lateral radiographs is important to truly diagnose children with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. However, it is a time-consuming process to measure the KA because the endplate of the upper...

Artificial Intelligence Assistance for the Measurement of Full Alignment Parameters in Whole-Spine Lateral Radiographs.

World neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Measuring spinal alignment with radiological parameters is essential in patients with spinal conditions likely to be treated surgically. These evaluations are not usually included in the radiological report. As a result, spinal surgeons c...

Development and validation of an artificial intelligence model to accurately predict spinopelvic parameters.

Journal of neurosurgery. Spine
OBJECTIVE: Achieving appropriate spinopelvic alignment has been shown to be associated with improved clinical symptoms. However, measurement of spinopelvic radiographic parameters is time-intensive and interobserver reliability is a concern. Automate...

Landet: an efficient physics-informed deep learning approach for automatic detection of anatomical landmarks and measurement of spinopelvic alignment.

Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research
PURPOSE: An efficient physics-informed deep learning approach for extracting spinopelvic measures from X-ray images is introduced and its performance is evaluated against manual annotations.

Spine surgeon versus AI algorithm full-length radiographic measurements: a validation study of complex adult spinal deformity patients.

Spine deformity
INTRODUCTION: Spinal measurements play an integral role in surgical planning for a variety of spine procedures. Full-length imaging eliminates distortions that can occur with stitched images. However, these images take radiologists significantly long...

Deep learning algorithm for fully automated measurement of sagittal balance in adult spinal deformity.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
AIM: Deep learning (DL) algorithms can be used for automated analysis of medical imaging. The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of an innovative, fully automated DL algorithm for analysis of sagittal balance in adult spinal deformity (ASD)...

Performance evaluation of a deep learning-based cascaded HRNet model for automatic measurement of X-ray imaging parameters of lumbar sagittal curvature.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning-based cascaded HRNet model, in order to automatically measure X-ray imaging parameters of lumbar sagittal curvature and to evaluate its prediction performance.
