BACKGROUND: Anterior lumbar interbody fusion is performed to fuse pathological spinal segments, generally, with a monobloc cage inserted by impact forces. Recently developed three-part modular cages attempt to reduce the impact forces, minimize the d...
INTRODUCTION: Understanding the intricate anatomical morphology of fused-rooted mandibular second molars (MSMs) is essential for root canal treatment. The present study utilized a deep learning approach to identify the three-dimensional root canal mo...
High cyclic strains induce formation of microcracks in bone, triggering targeted bone remodeling, which entails osteoclastic resorption. Racehorse bone is an ideal model for studying the effects of high-intensity loading, as it is subject to focal fo...

Osteocyte-lacunar bone structures are a discerning marker for bone pathophysiology, given their geometric alterations observed during aging and diseases. Deep Learning (DL) image analysis has showcased the potential to comprehend bone health associat...
BACKGROUND: Methods to monitor cardiac functioning non-invasively can accelerate preclinical and clinical research into novel treatment options for heart failure. However, manual image analysis of cardiac substructures is resource-intensive and error...
Osteochondral interface consists of two tissues: the calcified cartilage (CC) containing chondrocytes, and subchondral bone (SCB) containing osteocytes that interact with each other. In this study, we propose a new method for the three-dimensional (3...
BACKGROUND: Histomorphometry is currently the gold standard for bone microarchitectural examinations. This relies on two-dimensional (2D) sections to deduce the spatial properties of structures. Micromorphometric parameters are calculated from these ...
BACKGROUND: The allelic variations of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene play a critical role in regulating lipid metabolism and significantly impact cardiovascular disease risk (CVD). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of exercise on cardiac stru...
Recent advancements in deep learning have significantly enhanced the segmentation of high-resolution microcomputed tomography (µCT) bone scans. In this paper, we present the dual-branch attention-based hybrid network (DBAHNet), a deep learning archit...
In bone-imaging research, in situ synchrotron radiation micro-computed tomography (SRµCT) mechanical tests are used to investigate the mechanical properties of bone in relation to its microstructure. Low-dose computed tomography (CT) is used to prese...
