Structural damage detection using non-contact sensing remains a challenging problem in structural health monitoring. This study presents a data-driven framework based on Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) for extracting structural dynamics…

Patient-specific bone models are essential for designing surgical guides and preoperative planning, as they enable the visualization of intricate anatomical structures. However, traditional CT-based approaches for creating bone models are…

The use of coherent x-ray beams has been greatly developing for the past decades. They are now used by a wide scientific community to study biological materials, phase transitions in crystalline materials, soft matter, magnetism, strained…

Dual-energy X-ray Computed Tomography (DECT) constitutes an advanced technology which enables automatic decomposition of materials in clinical images without manual segmentation using the dependency of the X-ray linear attenuation with…

In several image acquisition and processing steps of X-ray radiography, knowledge of the existence of metal implants and their exact position is highly beneficial (e.g. dose regulation, image contrast adjustment). Another application which…

As global population aging intensifies, there is growing interest in the study of biological age. Bones have long been used to evaluate biological age, and the decline in bone density with age is a well-recognized phenomenon in adults.…

Dual energy computed tomography (DECT) imaging plays an important role in advanced imaging applications due to its material decomposition capability. Image-domain decomposition operates directly on CT images using linear matrix inversion,…

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…

Axonal damage is the primary pathological correlate of long-term impairment in multiple sclerosis (MS). Previous work has demonstrated a strong, quantitative relationship between decrease in axial diffusivity and axonal damage. In the…

Suppressing bones on chest X-rays such as ribs and clavicle is often expected to improve pathologies classification. These bones can interfere with a broad range of diagnostic tasks on pulmonary disease except for musculoskeletal system.…

We introduce the deep network trained on the MURA dataset from the Stanford University released in 2017. Our system is able to detect bone abnormalities on the radiographs and visualise such zones. We found that our solution has the…

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent musculoskeletal disorder, often diagnosed using X-rays due to its cost-effectiveness. While Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) provides superior soft tissue visualization and serves as a valuable…

Accurate prediction of anthropometric body composition variables, such as Appendicular Lean Mass (ALM), Body Fat Percentage (BFP), and Bone Mineral Density (BMD), is essential for early diagnosis of several chronic diseases. Currently,…

Wireless sensing literature has long aspired to achieve X-ray-like vision at radio frequencies. Yet, state-of-the-art wireless sensing literature has yet to generate the archetypal X-ray image: one of the bones beneath flesh. In this paper,…

Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) utilizes separate X-ray energy spectra to improve multi-material decomposition (MMD) for various diagnostic applications. However accurate decomposing more than two types of material remains…

Fragmentation and breakage of rocks is essential to iron ore mining and extraction. The breakage energy requirements and resulting ore particle size and mineral distributions are key to understanding and optimising mining and processing…

Modeling and analysis of spectroscopy data is an active area of research with applications to chemistry and biology. This paper focuses on analyzing Raman spectra obtained from a bone fracture healing experiment, although the functional…

Objective: To test automated in vivo estimation of active and passive skeletal muscle states using ultrasonic imaging. Background: Current technology (electromyography, dynamometry, shear wave imaging) provides no general, non-invasive…

Background: Three-dimensional dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry reconstructs three-dimensional maps of the proximal femur's density distribution from standard hip scans, enabling the estimation of trabecular and cortical bone parameters. The…

An osteoporosis-related fracture occurs every three seconds worldwide, affecting one in three women and one in five men aged over 50. The early detection of at-risk patients facilitates effective and well-evidenced preventative…
