A Classification Method for Thoracolumbar Vertebral Fractures due to Basketball Sports Injury Based on Deep Learning.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
OBJECTIVE: There are more and more basketball competitions, to propose a classification method of thoracolumbar fractures to assist in the diagnosis of basketball injuries, to analyze the feasibility of its clinical application, and to improve the re...

A deep learning framework for vertebral morphometry and Cobb angle measurement with external validation.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: To propose a fully automated deep learning (DL) framework for the vertebral morphometry and Cobb angle measurement from three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) images of the spine, and validate the proposed framework on an external d...

A prospective cohort study of the accuracy and safety of robot-assisted minimally invasive spinal surgery.

BMC surgery
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted open surgery (RA-OS) is now commonly used in traditional open-exposure spinal screw placement surgery. With the help of robots, robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RA-MIS) can achieve less bleeding and less tissue da...

Predictive Model for Selection of Upper Treated Vertebra Using a Machine Learning Approach.

World neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE: To train and validate an algorithm mimicking decision making of experienced surgeons regarding upper instrumented vertebra (UIV) selection in surgical correction of thoracolumbar adult spinal deformity.

Effects of obesity on breast size, thoracic spine structure and function, upper torso musculoskeletal pain and physical activity in women.

Journal of sport and health science
PURPOSE: This study investigated the effects of obesity on breast size, thoracic spine structure and function, upper torso musculoskeletal pain and physical activity participation in women living independently in the community.

Vertebral body insufficiency fractures: detection of vertebrae at risk on standard CT images using texture analysis and machine learning.

European radiology
PURPOSE: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of bone texture analysis (TA) combined with machine learning (ML) algorithms in standard CT scans to identify patients with vertebrae at risk for insufficiency fractures.

Prediction of spinal curve progression in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis using Random Forest regression.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: The progression of the spinal curve represents one of the major concerns in the assessment of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). The prediction of the shape of the spine from the first visit could guide the management of AIS and provi...

Effect of Pulsed Radiofrequency Treatment on the Thoracic Medial Branch for Managing Chronic Thoracic Facet Joint Pain Refractory to Medial Branch Block with Local Anesthetics.

World neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) stimulation of the thoracic medial branch of the dorsal ramus in patients with chronic thoracic facet joint (TFJ) pain who were refractory to medial branch block (MBB).

Comparison of the accuracy between robot-assisted and conventional freehand pedicle screw placement: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the different of accuracy between robot-assisted and conventional freehand pedicle screw placement.

The voluntary driven exoskeleton Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) for postoperative training of thoracic ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament: a case report.

The journal of spinal cord medicine
CONTEXT: The hybrid assistive limb (HAL) is a wearable robot suit that assists in voluntary control of knee and hip joint motion by detecting bioelectric signals on the surface of the skin with high sensitivity. HAL has been reported to be effective ...
