OBJECTIVE: The relationship between in vivo knee load predictions and longitudinal cartilage changes has not been investigated. We undertook this study to develop an equation to predict the medial tibiofemoral contact force (MCF) peak during walking ...

PURPOSE: Joint imbalance has become one of the main reasons for early revision after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and it is directly related to the surgical technique. Therefore, a better understanding of how much bone has to be removed to obtain a ...
OBJECTIVE: To assess the ability of imaging-based deep learning to detect radiographic patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA) from knee lateral view radiographs.
OBJECTIVE: To develop and evaluate deep learning (DL) risk assessment models for predicting pain progression in subjects with or at risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA).
UNLABELLED: A fully-automated deep learning algorithm matched performance of radiologists in assessment of knee osteoarthritis severity in radiographs using the Kellgren-Lawrence grading system.
OBJECTIVE: To introduce local binary pattern (LBP) texture analysis to cartilage osteoarthritis (OA) research and compare the performance of different classification systems in discrimination of OA subjects from healthy controls using gray-level co-o...
BACKGROUND: Articular cartilage degeneration is the hallmark change of osteoarthritis, a severely disabling disease with high prevalence and considerable socioeconomic and individual burden. Early, potentially reversible cartilage degeneration is cha...
IMPORTANCE: Decision aids can help inform appropriate selection of total knee replacement (TKR) for advanced knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, few decision aids combine patient education, preference assessment, and artificial intelligence (AI) using...
Texture features are designed to quantitatively evaluate patterns of spatial distribution of image pixels for purposes of image analysis and interpretation. Unexplained variations in the texture patterns often lead to misinterpretation and undesirabl...
Deafferentation and weight offloading can increase brain and spinal motor neuron excitability, respectively. End-effector gait robots (EEGRs) can blend these effects with stereotyped movement-induced neuroplasticity. The authors aimed to evaluate the...
