Radiological evaluation and clinical implications of deep learning- and MRI-based synthetic CT for the assessment of cervical spine injuries.

European radiology
OBJECTIVE: Efficient evaluation of soft tissues and bony structures following cervical spine trauma is critical. We sought to evaluate the diagnostic validity of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based synthetic CT (sCT) compared with conventional com...

Introduction to Spine Injuries in the Pickleball Athlete.

The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons
INTRODUCTION: Pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States. Despite its popularity, there is limited research on pickleball-related orthopaedic injuries, particularly in the spine. This study aims to provide a deeper understan...

Bone strain index as a predictor of further vertebral fracture in osteoporotic women: An artificial intelligence-based analysis.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis is an asymptomatic disease of high prevalence and incidence, leading to bone fractures burdened by high mortality and disability, mainly when several subsequent fractures occur. A fragility fracture predictive model, Artifici...

Prediction of cervical spine injury in young pediatric patients: an optimal trees artificial intelligence approach.

Journal of pediatric surgery
BACKGROUND: Cervical spine injuries (CSI) are a major concern in young pediatric trauma patients. The consequences of missed injuries and difficulties in injury clearance for non-verbal patients have led to a tendency to image young children. Imaging...

3D Cascaded Convolutional Networks for Multi-vertebrae Segmentation.

Current medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Automatic approach to vertebrae segmentation from computed tomography (CT) images is very important in clinical applications. As the intricate appearance and variable architecture of vertebrae across the population, cognate constructions ...

A correlative investigation of simulated occupant motion and accident report in a helicopter crash.

Aviation, space, and environmental medicine
BACKGROUND: In the late 1980's, an Army Apache helicopter crashed during a training mission, resulting in fatal injuries to the rear seat pilot and survivable injuries to the front seat copilot. U.S. Army investigators assessed the aircraft damage an...
