Geometric and dosimetric evaluation of a commercial AI auto‐contouring tool on multiple anatomical sites in CT scans

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Current radiotherapy practices rely on manual contouring of CT scans, which is time‐consuming, prone to variability, and requires highly trained experts. There is a need for more efficient and consistent contouring methods. This study evaluated the performance of the Varian Ethos AI auto‐contouring tool to assess its potential integration into

Infected bone resection plus adjuvant antibiotic-impregnated calcium sulfate versus infected bone resection alone in the treatment of diabetic forefoot osteomyelitis

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Managing with diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO) is challenging. Even after infective bone resection and thorough debridement, DFO is still difficult to cure and has a high recurrence rate.

The effect of Staphylococcus aureus on innate and adaptive immunity and potential immunotherapy for S. aureus-induced osteomyelitis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Osteomyelitis is a chronic inflammatory bone disease caused by infection of open fractures or post-operative implants. Particularly in patients with open fractures, the risk of osteomyelitis is greatly increased as the soft tissue damage and bacterial ...

Patient Perceptions of Medication Therapy for Prevention of Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury: A Qualitative Content Analysis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) accounts for nearly 12% of osteoarthritis incidences and often occurs after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. Ensuring the uptake of preventive treatments for PTOA requires that investigators and clinicians understand factors influencing patients to seek preventive therapies.

Impact-Induced Cartilage Damage Assessed using Polarisation-Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Significance: Non-invasive determination of structural changes in articular cartilage immediately after impact and rehydration provides insight into the response and recovery of the soft tissue, as well as provides a potential methodology for clinicians to quantify early degenerative changes. Approach: A custom-designed impact testing rig was used to

A review of the differences between normal and osteoarthritis articular cartilage in human knee and ankle joints [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease yet its pathophysiology is still poorly understood. It is more prevalent in some lower limb joints than others; in particular the knee is more commonly affected than the ankle.

Two‐Year Follow‐Up of a Multidisciplinary Lifestyle Intervention for Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective The Plants for Joints intervention (PFJ), including a whole‐food plant‐based diet, exercise, and stress reduction, reduced signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or metabolic syndrome‐associated hip or knee osteoarthritis (MSOA) compared to usual care. This study examined outcomes two years later. Methods After two 16‐week randomized

Depletion of chondrocyte primary cilia reduces the compressive modulus of articular cartilage [PDF]

, 2014
Primary cilia are slender, microtubule based structures found in the majority of cell types with one cilium per cell. In articular cartilage, primary cilia are required for chondrocyte mechanotransduction and the development of healthy tissue.
