Segmentation of cortical bone, trabecular bone, and medullary pores from micro-CT images using 2D and 3D deep learning models

Segmentation of cortical bone, trabecular bone, and medullary pores from micro-CT images using 2D and 3D deep learning models

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, achieving superior performance on image data. In this methodology-focused paper, we used CNNs to train segmentation models from scratch on 2D and 3D patches from micro-CT scans of otter long bones. These new models, collectively called BONe (Bone One... Read more

3D computational anatomy of the scaphoid and its waist for use in fracture treatment

3D computational anatomy of the scaphoid and its waist for use in fracture treatment

A detailed understanding of scaphoid anatomy helps anatomic fracture reduction and optimal screw position. Therefore, we analyzed the size and shape variations of the cartilage and osseous surface, the distribution of volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), and if the vBMD values differ between a peripheral and a central screw pathway?

Forty-three fresh frozen hand specimens (17 females, 26 males) were analysed with high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) ... Read more
