An artificial neural network for full-body posture prediction in dynamic lifting activities and effects of its prediction errors on model-estimated spinal loads.

Journal of biomechanics
Musculoskeletal models have indispensable applications in occupational risk assessment/management and clinical treatment/rehabilitation programs. To estimate muscle forces and joint loads, these models require body posture during the activity under c...

Advancements in Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery.

Neurosurgery clinics of North America
Applications and workflows around spinal robotics have evolved since these systems were first introduced in 2004. Initially approved for lumbar pedicle screw placement, the scope of robotics has expanded to instrumentation across different regions. A...

Deep learning system for automated detection of posterior ligamentous complex injury in patients with thoracolumbar fracture on MRI.

Scientific reports
This study aimed to develop a deep learning (DL) algorithm for automated detection and localization of posterior ligamentous complex (PLC) injury in patients with acute thoracolumbar (TL) fracture on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and evaluate its ...

Da Vinci Robotic Assistance for Anterolateral Lumbar Arthrodesis: Results of a French Multicentric Study.

World neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: The da Vinci robot (DVR) is the most widely used robot in abdominal, urological, and gynecological surgery. Due to its minimally invasive approach, the DVR has demonstrated its effectiveness and improved safety in these different discipli...

Cross-sectional area and fat infiltration of the lumbar spine muscles in patients with back disorders: a deep learning-based big data analysis.

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: Validated deep learning models represent a valuable option to perform large-scale research studies aiming to evaluate muscle quality and quantity of paravertebral lumbar muscles at the population level. This study aimed to assess lumbar spin...

Automated vertebral bone mineral density measurement with phantomless internal calibration in chest LDCT scans using deep learning.

The British journal of radiology
OBJECTIVE: To develop and evaluate a fully automated method based on deep learning and phantomless internal calibration for bone mineral density (BMD) measurement and opportunistic low BMD (osteopenia and osteoporosis) screening using chest low-dose ...

A Concentric Tube Steerable Drilling Robot for Minimally Invasive Spinal Fixation of Osteoporotic Vertebrae.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Spinal fixation with rigid pedicle screws have shown to be an effective treatment for many patients. However, this surgical option has been proved to be insufficient and will eventually fail for patients experiencing osteoporosis. This failure is mai...

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.

Establish and validate the reliability of predictive models in bone mineral density by deep learning as examination tool for women.

Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA
UNLABELLED: While FRAX with BMD could be more precise in estimating the fracture risk, DL-based models were validated to slightly reduce the number of under- and over-treated patients when no BMD measurements were available. The validated models coul...

Da Vinci Meets Globus Excelsius GPS: A Totally Robotic Minimally Invasive Anterior and Posterior Lumbar Fusion.

World neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive approaches to the spine via anterior and posterior approaches have been increasing in popularity, culminating in the development of robot-assisted spinal fusions. The da Vinci surgical robot has been used for anterior l...
