OBJECTIVE: In this study, we propose a novel framework that utilizes deep learning and attention mechanisms to predict the radiographic progression of patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA) over a period of 7 years.
BACKGROUND: This study proposed an automatic surgical planning system for high tibial osteotomy (HTO) using deep learning-based artificial intelligence and validated its accuracy. The system simulates osteotomy and measures lower-limb alignment param...

We proposed an end-to-end deep learning convolutional neural network (DCNN) for region-of-interest based multi-parameter quantification (RMQ-Net) to accelerate quantitative ultrashort echo time (UTE) MRI of the knee joint with automatic multi-tissue ...
Malalignment in the lower limb structure occurs due to various causes. Accurately evaluating limb alignment in situations where malalignment needs correction is necessary. To create an automated support system to evaluate lower limb alignment by quan...
OBJECTIVE: Identifying participants who will progress to advanced stage in knee osteoarthritis (KOA) trials remains a significant challenge. Current tools, relying on total knee replacements (TKR), fall short in reliability due to the extraneous fact...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) model to identify the optimal situation wherein double-level osteotomy (DLO) is favored for severe varus knees by analyzing unfavorable outcomes. This study hypothesized that there are t...
