PURPOSE: To propose a fully automated deep learning (DL) framework for the vertebral morphometry and Cobb angle measurement from three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) images of the spine, and validate the proposed framework on an external d...
OBJECTIVES: In this study, we aimed to differentiate normal cervical graphs and graphs of diseases that cause mechanical neck pain by using deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) technology.
Analyzing spinal curvatures manually is time-consuming and tedious for clinicians, and intra-observer and inter-observer variability can affect manual measurements. In this study, we developed and evaluated the performance of an automated deep learni...

PURPOSE: AI algorithms have shown promise in medical image analysis. Previous studies of ASD clusters have analyzed alignment metrics-this study sought to complement these efforts by analyzing images of sagittal anatomical spinopelvic landmarks. We h...
OBJECTIVE: To train and validate an algorithm mimicking decision making of experienced surgeons regarding upper instrumented vertebra (UIV) selection in surgical correction of thoracolumbar adult spinal deformity.
IMPORTANCE: The loss of the physiologic cervical lordotic curve is a common degenerative disorder known to be associated with abnormal spinal alignment. However, the changing trends among sex and age groups has not yet been well established.
OBJECTIVE: Multiple studies in the past have developed equations to determine the ideal lumbar lordosis (ILL) in the sagittal plane. These equations differ but all look to accomplish the same goal of providing the surgeon with specific alignment targ...
OBJECTIVE: Software engineering innovations have led to the development of virtual surgical planning software (VSPS) for deformity correction. VSPS uses calibrated radiographs and machine learning predictive models to simulate postoperative spinopelv...
