Mechanical characterization of bone anchors used with a bone-attached, parallel robot for skull surgery.

Medical engineering & physics
Bone-attached robots and microstereotactic frames, intended for deep brain stimulation and minimally invasive cochlear implantation, typically attach to a patient's skull via bone anchors. A rigid and reliable link between such devices and the skull ...

Machine learning methods for sex estimation of sub-adults using cranial computed tomography images.

Anthropologischer Anzeiger; Bericht uber die biologisch-anthropologische Literatur
This research aimed to compare the classification accuracy of three machine learning (ML) methods (random forest (RF), support vector machines (SVM), linear discriminant analysis (LDA)) for sex estimation of sub-adults using cranial computed tomograp...

Surface scanning and imaging in craniofacial surgery.

Current opinion in otolaryngology & head and neck surgery
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review describes recent innovations in craniofacial imaging, focusing on emerging techniques such as 3D photogrammetry, smartphone-based scanning, and artificial intelligence applied to cephalometric assessments in facial plas...

Sex-estimation method for three-dimensional shapes of the skull and skull parts using machine learning.

Forensic science international
Sex estimation is an indispensable test for identifying skeletal remains in the field of forensic anthropology. We developed a novel sex-estimation method for skulls and several parts of the skull using machine learning. A total of 240 skull shapes w...

Transcranial adaptive aberration correction using deep learning for phased-array ultrasound therapy.

Ultrasonics
This study aims to explore the feasibility of a deep learning approach to correct the distortion caused by the skull, thereby developing a transcranial adaptive focusing method for safe ultrasonic treatment in opening of the blood-brain barrier (BBB)...

Beyond 3D Printing: How AI is Shaping the Future of Craniomaxillofacial Bone Tissue Engineering.

ACS biomaterials science & engineering
This perspective focuses on the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in craniomaxillofacial (CMF) bone tissue engineering, mitigating current challenges, and driving the development of tailored biomaterials and clinical translation. CMF bone tis...

Diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia based on plain skull radiography using convolutional neural network.

Scientific reports
This study aimed to determine whether trigeminal neuralgia can be diagnosed using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based on plain X-ray skull images. A labeled dataset of 166 skull images from patients aged over 16 years with trigeminal neuralgia...

Age Estimation by Machine Learning and CT-Multiplanar Reformation of Cranial Sutures in Northern Chinese Han Adults.

Fa yi xue za zhi
OBJECTIVES: To establish age estimation models of northern Chinese Han adults using cranial suture images obtained by CT and multiplanar reformation (MPR), and to explore the applicability of cranial suture closure rule in age estimation of northern ...

A Deep Learning Framework for Skull Stripping in Brain MRI.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Skull-stripping, an important pre-processing step in neuroimage computing, involves the automated removal of non-brain anatomy (such as the skull, eyes, and ears) from brain images to facilitate brain segmentation and analysis. Manual segmentation is...

Analysis of the influence of surgical robot drilling parameters on the temperature of skull drilling based on Box-Behnken design.

Science progress
It is easy to cause thermal damage to the bone tissue when the surgical robot performs skull drilling to remove bone flaps, due to the large diameter of the drill bit, the large heat-generating area, and the long drilling time. Therefore, in order to...
