Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) of the thoracolumbar spine are commonly caused by osteoporosis or result from traumatic events. Early diagnosis of vertebral compression fractures can prevent further damage to patients. When assessing these fra...
BACKGROUND: With the progressive increase in aging populations, the use of opportunistic computed tomography (CT) scanning is increasing, which could be a valuable method for acquiring information on both muscles and bones of aging populations.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Secondary vertebral compression fractures (SVCF) are very common in patients after vertebral augmentation (VA). The aim of this study was to establish a radiomic-based model to predict SVCF and specify appropriate treatment ...
BACKGROUND: The reaserch of artificial intelligence (AI) model for predicting spinal refracture is limited to bone mineral density, X-ray and some conventional laboratory indicators, which has its own limitations. Besides, it lacks specific indicator...

Spine disorders can cause severe functional limitations, including back pain, decreased pulmonary function, and increased mortality risk. Plain radiography is the first-line imaging modality to diagnose suspected spine disorders. Nevertheless, radiog...
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model for predicting the risk of new osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) in patients who underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and to create a use...

Spine fractures represent a critical health concern with far-reaching implications for patient care and clinical decision-making. Accurate segmentation of spine fractures from medical images is a crucial task due to its location, shape, type, and sev...
PURPOSE: To develop and validate a deep learning radiomics (DLR) model that uses X-ray images to predict the classification of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs).

PURPOSE: Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) are a highly prevalent source of morbidity and mortality, and preventive treatment has been demonstrated to be both effective and cost effective. To take advantage of the information avail...
BACKGROUND: Vague spinal anatomical landmarks in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) make intraoperative insertion of pedicle screws difficult under direct vision. Currently, the clinical outcome is significantly improved with robot guidance. T...
