UANV: UNet-based attention network for thoracolumbar vertebral compression fracture angle measurement.

Scientific reports
Kyphosis is a prevalent spinal condition where the spine curves in the sagittal plane, resulting in spine deformities. Curvature estimation provides a powerful index to assess the deformation severity of scoliosis. In current clinical diagnosis, the ...

Development and validation of a predictive model for refracture risk in elderly individuals with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture: a retrospective study in China.

Aging clinical and experimental research
BACKGROUND: The rising incidence of refractures and associated adverse outcomes among individuals with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures has gained significant attention. Identifying refracture risk is crucial for implementing effective pr...

Global burden of vertebral fractures from 1990 to 2021 and projections for the next three decades.

Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research
BACKGROUND: Vertebral fractures are linked to significant disability and mortality risks. Yet, existing studies on their global burden are outdated and lack predictive foresight.

A machine learning tool for prediction of vertebral compression fracture following stereotactic body radiation therapy for spinal metastases.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The most common adverse event following spine stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is vertebral compression fracture (VCF). There is interest in the development of patient-specific tools that can predict those at high risk of...

Vision transformer and deep learning based weighted ensemble model for automated spine fracture type identification with GAN generated CT images.

Scientific reports
The most common causes of spine fractures, or vertebral column fractures (VCF), are traumas like falls, injuries from sports, or accidents. CT scans are affordable and effective at detecting VCF types in an accurate manner. VCF type identification in...

Improved radiological diagnosis of osteoporotic vertebral fragility fractures following UK-wide interventions and re-audit-can this be maintained and translated into clinical practice?

Osteoporosis international : a journal established as result of cooperation between the European Foundation for Osteoporosis and the National Osteoporosis Foundation of the USA
UNLABELLED: To determine the potential economic, morbidity and mortality impact of improvements in reporting of vertebral fragility fractures (VFFs) following a complete audit cycle. Six percent interval increase in reporting of moderate/severe VFFs ...

Integrating manual annotation with deep transfer learning and radiomics for vertebral fracture analysis.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) are prevalent in the elderly, often caused by osteoporosis or trauma. Differentiating acute from chronic VCFs is vital for treatment planning, but MRI, the gold standard, is inaccessible for some. Ho...

Conventional and machine learning-based analysis of age, body weight and body height significance in knot position-related thyrohyoid and cervical spine fractures in suicidal hangings.

International journal of legal medicine
The thyrohyoid complex and cervical spine fracture distribution patterns may reflect the knot position as the force distribution by the noose to different neck regions may vary depending on it. Recently, machine learning models (MLm) were used to cla...

A deep learning pipeline for systematic and accurate vertebral fracture reporting in computed tomography.

Clinical radiology
AIM: Spine fractures are a frequent and relevant diagnosis, but systematic documentation is time-consuming and sometimes overlooked. A deep learning pipeline for opportunistic fracture detection in computed tomography (CT) spine images of varying fie...
