To develop and validate a machine-learning (ML) model that pre-operatively predicts cerebrospinal-fluid leakage (CSFL) after posterior decompression for thoracic ossification of the ligamentum flavum (TOLF), and to elucidate the key risk factors driv...
Predicting vertebral height is complex due to individual factors. AI-based medical imaging analysis offers new opportunities for vertebral assessment. Thereby, these novel methods may contribute to sex-adapted nomograms and vertebral height predictio...
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 ...
OBJECTIVE: To develop and compare machine-learning algorithms to predict recovery of ambulation after decompressive surgery for acute intervertebral disc extrusion (IVDE).

INTRODUCTION: To investigate the accuracy of an artificial intelligence (AI) prototype in determining bone mineral density (BMD) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients using chest computed tomography (CT) scans.
BACKGROUND: With increased use of thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) in thoracic surgery, many faced the challenge of locating the thoracic paravertebral space (TPVS) ultrasonographically. This observational study aimed to investigate the waveform c...
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...
We aimed to analyze the cervical sagittal alignment change following the growing rod treatment in early-onset scoliosis (EOS) and identify the risk factors of sagittal cervical imbalance after growing-rod surgery of machine learning. EOS patients fro...
