Automated volumetric and statistical shape assessment of cam-type morphology of the femoral head-neck region from 3D magnetic resonance images [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) cam morphology is routinely assessed using two-dimensional alpha angles which do not provide specific data on cam size characteristics. The purpose of this study is to implement a novel, automated three-dimensional (3D) pipeline, CamMorph, for segmentation and measurement of cam volume, surface area and height from ...

Multi-view information fusion using multi-view variational autoencoders to predict proximal femoral strength [PDF]
, 2022 The aim of this paper is to design a deep learning-based model to predict proximal femoral strength using multi-view information fusion. Method: We developed new models using multi-view variational autoencoder (MVAE) for feature representation learning and a product of expert (PoE) model for multi-view information fusion. We applied the proposed models

Mechanical Loading of the Femoral Neck in Human Locomotion
Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2018 Advancing age and reduced loading are associated with a reduction in bone formation. Conversely, loading increases periosteal apposition and may reduce remodeling imbalance and slow age‐related bone loss, an important outcome for the proximal femur ...

Introducing Anisotropic Minkowski Functionals and Quantitative Anisotropy Measures for Local Structure Analysis in Biomedical Imaging [PDF]
, 2020 The ability of Minkowski Functionals to characterize local structure in different biological tissue types has been demonstrated in a variety of medical image processing tasks. We introduce anisotropic Minkowski Functionals (AMFs) as a novel variant that captures the inherent anisotropy of the underlying gray-level structures. To quantify the anisotropy
