Poor Bone Quality in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Objective: Musculoskeletal functional deterioration in Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is associated with an increase in bone fractures. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of sex, ALS type, on bone quality in patients with ALS ...

Correlation Between Resonance Frequency Analysis and Bone Quality Assessments at Dental Implant Recipient Sites.

open access: yesThe International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants, 2017
PURPOSE To evaluate whether primary implant stability could be used to predict bone quality, the association between the implant stability quotient (ISQ) value and the bone type at the implant site was evaluated.

Using anisotropic 3D Minkowski functionals for trabecular bone characterization and biomechanical strength prediction in proximal femur specimens [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The ability of Anisotropic Minkowski Functionals (AMFs) to capture local anisotropy while evaluating topological properties of the underlying gray-level structures has been previously demonstrated. We evaluate the ability of this approach to characterize local structure properties of trabecular bone micro-architecture in ex vivo proximal femur ...

CBCT-based bone quality assessment: are Hounsfield units applicable?

open access: yesDento maxillo facial radiology, 2015
CBCT is a widely applied imaging modality in dentistry. It enables the visualization of high-contrast structures of the oral region (bone, teeth, air cavities) at a high resolution.

End-To-End Convolutional Neural Network for 3D Reconstruction of Knee Bones From Bi-Planar X-Ray Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
We present an end-to-end Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) approach for 3D reconstruction of knee bones directly from two bi-planar X-ray images. Clinically, capturing the 3D models of the bones is crucial for surgical planning, implant fitting, and postoperative evaluation.

Clinical Considerations of Adapted Drilling Protocol by Bone Quality Perception.

open access: yesThe International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants, 2017
PURPOSE To evaluate insertion torque value (ITV) and marginal bone loss (MBL) of an implant system after a clinically perceived bone quality-adapted drilling.

Relationships among Bone Quality, Implant Osseointegration, and Wnt Signaling

open access: yesJournal of dentistry research, 2017
A variety of clinical classification schemes have been proposed as a means to identify sites in the oral cavity where implant osseointegration is likely to be successful.

Site-specific Quantification of Bone Quality using Highly Nonlinear Solitary Waves [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
Osteoporosis is a well recognized problem affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Consequently, the need to effectively, efficiently, and affordably diagnose and identify those at risk is essential; moreover, site-specific assessment of bone quality is necessary, not only in the process of risk assessment, but may also be desirable for other ...

Local bone quality affects the outcome of prosthetic total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, 2016
Osteoporosis and osteoarthritis commonly coexist in the elderly. In patients undergoing prosthetic total knee arthroplasty (TKA), the bone quality around the knee joint may affect the safety of prosthetic implantation and consequently satisfaction with ...
