In recent years, robot-assisted training has been shown to significantly improve motor function and proprioception in people with functional disabilities, but the efficiency of proprioceptive acuity was unclear. To characterize the efficiency of join...
OBJECTIVES: To develop and validate an artificial intelligence (AI) system for measuring and detecting signs of carpal instability on conventional radiographs.
The aim of this paper is to investigate technological advancements made to a robotic tele-ultrasound system for musculoskeletal imaging, the MSK-TIM (Musculoskeletal Telerobotic Imaging Machine). The hardware was enhanced with a force feedback sensor...
INTRODUCTION: Wrist arthroscopy is a rapidly expanding surgical discipline, but has a long and challenging learning curve. One of its difficulties is distinguishing the various anatomical structures during the procedure. Although artificial intellige...
This study proposes a Deep Learning algorithm to automatically detect perilunate dislocation in anteroposterior wrist radiographs. A total of 374 annotated radiographs, 345 normal and 29 pathological, of skeletally mature adolescents and adults aged ...
Surface electromyography (sEMG) offers a novel method in human-machine interactions (HMIs) since it is a distinct physiological electrical signal that conceals human movement intention and muscle information. Unfortunately, the nonlinear and non-smoo...
Deep neural networks (DNNs) and transfer learning (TL) have been used to improve surface electromyogram (sEMG)-based force estimation. However, prior studies focused mostly on applying TL within one joint, which limits dataset size and diversity. Her...
PURPOSES: The objective of this study was to investigate intra-articular distal radius fractures, aiming to provide a comprehensive analysis of fracture patterns and discuss the corresponding treatment strategies for each pattern.
A transverse ledge brachiation robot is designed to move transversely along a ledge on a vertical wall by generating energy from the swinging motion of its lower limbs. This method reduces the force required by the upper limbs to propel the robot for...
