Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) provides a task-based support of walking using exoskeletons. Evidence shows moderate, but positive effects in the therapy of patients with cerebral palsy (CP). This study investigates the impact of RAGT on walking ...
Joint dynamic properties play essential roles in a wide range of biomechanical movement control. This paper develops a device with a novel mechatronic design to apply small-amplitude perturbations to the human knee. Surface Electromyography is employ...

PURPOSE: Bone identification and segmentation in X-ray images are crucial in orthopedics for the automation of clinical procedures, but it often involves some manual operations. In this work, using a modified SegNet neural network, we automatically i...
OBJECTIVE: To compare image quality and diagnostic accuracy of arterial stenosis in low-dose lower-extremity CT angiography (CTA) between adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction-V (ASIR-V) and deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithm...
PURPOSE: Members of the European Knee Society (EKS) recently took part in an online questionnaire on robot-assisted TKA. The purpose of this study was to report and analyse the questionnaire results on the demographics of users versus non-users, the ...
The lower limb rehabilitation robot is a typical man-machine coupling system. Aiming at the problems of insufficient physiological information and unsatisfactory safety performance in the compliance control strategy for the lower limb rehabilitation ...
The increase of the aging population brings numerous challenges to health and aesthetic segments. Here, the use of laser therapy for dermatology is expected to increase since it allows for non-invasive and infection-free treatments. However, existing...
INTRODUCTION: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) synchronized with robot-assisted lower extremity training is used in spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation to promote residual function.
This research aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of edaravone on lower limb ischemia-reperfusion injury by MRI images of graph patch-based directional curvelet transform (GPBDCT), compression reconstruction algorithm. 200 patients with lower li...
OBJECTIVE: Robot-assisted neuro-rehabilitation therapy plays a central role in upper extremity recovery of stroke. However, the efficacy of robotic training on the upper extremity is not yet well defined, and little attention has been devoted to its ...
