Spinal metastasis is the most common disease in bone metastasis and may cause pain, instability and neurological injuries. Early detection of spinal metastasis is critical for accurate staging and optimal treatment. The diagnosis is usually…
In addition to body weight and Body Mass Index (BMI), body composition is an essential data point that allows people to understand their overall health and body fitness. However, body composition is largely made up of muscle, fat, bones,…
Recently, through development of several 3d vision systems, widely used in various applications, medical and biometric fields. Microsoft kinect sensor have been most of used camera among 3d vision systems. Microsoft kinect sensor can obtain…
Bone marrow (BM) metabolic quantification with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is of broad clinical significance for accurate assessment of BM at staging and follow-up, especially when immunotherapy is…
Accurate measures of musculoskeletal forces are critical for clinicians, biomechanists, and engineers, yet direct measurement is highly invasive and current estimation methods remain limited in accuracy. Here, we demonstrate the application…
Accurate prediction of fracture toughness under complex loading conditions, like mixed mode I/II, is essential for reliable failure assessment. This paper aims to develop a machine learning framework for predicting fracture toughness and…
In this paper the dielectric properties of human trabecular bone are evaluated under physiological condition in the microwave range. Assuming a two components medium, simulation and experimental data are presented and discussed. A special…
In the U.S, 5-10\% of new pediatric cases of cancer are primary bone tumors. The most common type of primary malignant bone tumor is osteosarcoma. The intention of the present work is to improve the detection and diagnosis of osteosarcoma…
Internal fixation is a common orthopedic procedure in which a rigid screw is used to fix fragments of a fractured bone together and expedite the healing process. However, the rigidity of the screw, geometry of the fractured anatomy (e.g.…
Computational modeling of Multiresolution- Fractional Brownian motion (fBm) has been effective in stochastic multiscale fractal texture feature extraction and machine learning of abnormal brain tissue segmentation. Further, deep…
We propose an ultrasound approach which provides, with one single examination and one single device, access to three bone biomarkers: anatomy, tissue quality and blood flow. It unlocks ultrasound imaging inside bone by accounting for…
Bone structure is generally hierarchically organized into organic (collagen, proteins,...), inorganic (hydroxyapatite (HAP)) components. However, many fundamental mechanisms of the biomineralization processes such as HAP formation, the…
Delayed diagnosis of syndesmosis instability can lead to significant morbidity and accelerated arthritic change in the ankle joint. Weight-bearing computed tomography (WBCT) has shown promising potential for early and reliable detection of…
Objective: Muscle contractions are commonly detected by performing EMG measurements. The major disadvantage of this technique is that mechanical disturbances to the electrodes are in the same frequency and magnitude range as the desired…
In the scope of gestural action recognition, the size of the feature vector representing movements is in general quite large especially when full body movements are considered. Furthermore, this feature vector evolves during the movement…
In context of the universal presence of defects in additively manufactured (AM) metals, efficient computational tools are required to rapidly screen AM microstructures for mechanical integrity. To this end, a deep learning approach is used…
Forces transmitted by bones are routinely studied in human biomechanics, but it is challenging to measure them non-invasively, especially outside of laboratory settings. We introduce a technique for non-invasive, in vivo measurement of…
Many statistical machine approaches could ultimately highlight novel features of the etiology of complex diseases by analyzing multi-omics data. However, they are sensitive to some deviations in distribution when the observed samples are…
Tissue stiffness is related to soft tissue pathologies and can be assessed through palpation or via clinical imaging systems, e.g., ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging. Typically, the image based approaches are not suitable during…
The science of fractography revolves around the correlation between topographic characteristics of the fracture surface and the mechanisms and external conditions leading to their creation. While being a topic of investigation for…
