Development and Stability Analysis of Carpal Kinematic Metrics from 4D Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]
Introduction: Wrist instability remains a common health concern. The potential of dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in assessing carpal dynamics associated with this condition is a field of ongoing research. This study contributes to this line of inquiry by developing MRI-derived carpal kinematic metrics and investigating their stability ...

Unconstrained Kinematic MRI Tracking of Wrist Carpal Bones [PDF]
In this preliminary study technical methodology for kinematic tracking and profiling of wrist carpal bones during unconstrained movements is explored. Heavily under-sampled and fat-saturated 3D Cartesian MRI acquisition were used to capture temporal frames of the unconstrained moving wrist of 5 healthy subjects.

The influence of bone surface availability in bone remodelling - A mathematical model including coupled geometrical and biomechanical regulations of bone cells [PDF]
Bone is a biomaterial undergoing continuous renewal. The renewal process is known as bone remodelling and is operated by bone-resorbing cells (osteoclasts) and bone-forming cells (osteoblasts). Both biochemical and biomechanical regulatory mechanisms have been identified in the interaction between osteoclasts and osteoblasts.

Giant cell tumor of the capitate: an unusual case with 10 years follow-up
Giant cell tumor of the small bones, particularly the carpal bones of the hand, is exceedingly rare. We present a case report of giant cell tumor of the capitate in a 24 year-old female with 10 years postoperative follow-up.

Introduction: Protein energy malnutrition (PEM) in childhood leads to a skeletal undergrowth that cannot be rectified during later stages of life, therefore it may lead to an increase risk of osteoporotic fractures. Aim: This study designed to assess

Global spectral graph wavelet signature for surface analysis of carpal bones [PDF]
In this paper, we present a spectral graph wavelet approach for shape analysis of carpal bones of human wrist. We apply a metric called global spectral graph wavelet signature for representation of cortical surface of the carpal bone based on eigensystem of Laplace-Beltrami operator.

Foot Bone in Vivo: Its Center of Mass and Centroid of Shape [PDF]
This paper studies foot bone geometrical shape and its mass distribution and establishes an assessment method of bone strength. Using spiral CT scanning, with an accuracy of sub-millimeter, we analyze the data of 384 pieces of foot bones in vivo and investigate the relationship between the bone's external shape and internal structure.

Concurrent consideration of cortical and cancellous bone within continuum bone remodelling [PDF]
Continuum bone remodelling is an important tool for predicting the effects of mechanical stimuli on bone density evolution. While the modelling of only cancellous bone is considered in many studies based on continuum bone remodelling, this work presents an approach of modelling also cortical bone and the interaction of both bone types.

Triquetral Osteoid Osteoma: A Diagnostic Dilemma
Background: Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign osteoblastic neoplasm, mostly occurring in long bones of lower extremity. Its manifestation in unusual locations can be a diagnostic challenge and distressing for patients.
