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...
To date, the effect of cryopreservation on microcracks in the dental enamel remains unclear. These enamel microcracks are very thin, at the limit of visibility and their segmentation is beyond the capabilities of traditional image analysis. The objec...
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...

Computed tomography (CT) enables rapid imaging of large-scale studies of bone, but those datasets typically require manual segmentation, which is time-consuming and prone to error. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) offer an automated solution, ach...
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: 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...
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...
