Automatic Vertebrae Localization and Identification by Combining Deep SSAE Contextual Features and Structured Regression Forest.

Journal of digital imaging
Automatic vertebrae localization and identification in medical computed tomography (CT) scans is of great value for computer-aided spine diseases diagnosis. In order to overcome the disadvantages of the approaches employing hand-crafted, low-level fe...

Development of a machine learning algorithm for prediction of failure of nonoperative management in spinal epidural abscess.

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Data regarding risk of failure of nonoperative management in spinal epidural abscess (SEA) are limited. Given the potential for deterioration with treatment failure, a tool that predicts the probability of failure would be of grea...

Automatic Lumbar MRI Detection and Identification Based on Deep Learning.

Journal of digital imaging
The aim of this research is to automatically detect lumbar vertebras in MRI images with bounding boxes and their classes, which can assist clinicians with diagnoses based on large amounts of MRI slices. Vertebras are highly semblable in appearance, l...

Initial classification of low back and leg pain based on objective functional testing: a pilot study of machine learning applied to diagnostics.

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
OBJECTIVE: The five-repetition sit-to-stand (5R-STS) test was designed to capture objective functional impairment and thus provided an adjunctive dimension in patient assessment. The clinical interpretability and confounders of the 5R-STS remain poor...

Pain phenotypes classified by machine learning using electroencephalography features.

NeuroImage
Pain is a multidimensional experience mediated by distributed neural networks in the brain. To study this phenomenon, EEGs were collected from 20 subjects with chronic lumbar radiculopathy, 20 age and gender matched healthy subjects, and 17 subjects ...

Use of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to Drive Personalized Medicine Approaches for Spine Care.

World neurosurgery
Personalized medicine is a new paradigm of healthcare in which interventions are based on individual patient characteristics rather than on "one-size-fits-all" guidelines. As epidemiological datasets continue to burgeon in size and complexity, powerf...

Machine Learning With Feature Domains Elucidates Candidate Drivers of Hospital Readmission Following Spine Surgery in a Large Single-Center Patient Cohort.

Neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Unplanned hospital readmissions constitute a significant cost burden in healthcare. Identifying factors contributing to readmission risk presents opportunities for actionable change to reduce readmission rates.

Drivers of Prolonged Hospitalization Following Spine Surgery: A Game-Theory-Based Approach to Explaining Machine Learning Models.

The Journal of bone and joint surgery. American volume
BACKGROUND: Understanding the interactions between variables that predict prolonged hospital length of stay (LOS) following spine surgery can help uncover drivers of this risk in patients. This study utilized a novel game-theory-based approach to dev...
