STUDY DESIGN: Investigation of the automation of radiological features from magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of the lumbar spine.
As a common disease in the elderly, neural foramina stenosis (NFS) brings a significantly negative impact on the quality of life due to its symptoms including pain, disability, fall risk and depression. Accurate boundary delineation is essential to t...
OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to develop a single-stage deep learning (DL) screening system for automated binary and multiclass grading of lumbar central stenosis (LCS), lateral recess stenosis (LRS), and lumbar foraminal stenosis (LFS).
OBJECTIVE: To develop a deep learning algorithm for diagnosing lumbar central canal stenosis (LCCS) using abdominal CT (ACT) and lumbar spine CT (LCT).
PURPOSE: This study was conducted to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm that can diagnose cervical foraminal stenosis using oblique radiographs and evaluate its accuracy.
BACKGROUND: Lumbar disc herniation was regarded as an age-related degenerative disease. Nevertheless, emerging reports highlight a discernible shift, illustrating the prevalence of these conditions among younger individuals.
To compare the quality and interobserver agreement in the evaluation of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) on computed tomography (CT) images between deep-learning reconstruction (DLR) and hybrid iterative reconstruction (hybrid IR). This retrospective stu...
BACKGROUND: Transforaminal epidural steroid injections (TFESI) are widely used to alleviate lumbosacral radicular pain. Knowledge of the therapeutic outcomes of TFESI allows clinicians to elucidate therapeutic plans for managing lumbosacral radicular...
