Arthritis patients develop hand bone loss, which leads to destruction and functional impairment of the affected joints. High resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) allows the quantification of volumetric bone mineral density...
OBJECTIVE: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease characterized by erosive symmetrical polyarthritis. Bone and cartilage are the main joint targets of this disease. Cartilage damage is one of the most relevant determinants of physical disabil...
BACKGROUND: Patients are increasingly turning to the internet, and recently artificial intelligence engines (e.g., ChatGPT), for answers to common medical questions. Regarding orthopedic hand surgery, recent literature has focused on ChatGPT's abilit...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hand fractures are commonly presented in emergency departments, yet diagnostic errors persist, leading to potential complications. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in fracture detection has shown promise, but research ...
Hand bone structure provides valuable features for sex estimation. This research introduces a novel approach using Artificial Intelligence (AI), specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), to classify sex from hand X-ray images, focusing on th...
