Semantic Context Forests for Learning-Based Knee Cartilage Segmentation in 3D MR Images [PDF]
, 2013 The automatic segmentation of human knee cartilage from 3D MR images is a useful yet challenging task due to the thin sheet structure of the cartilage with diffuse boundaries and inhomogeneous intensities. In this paper, we present an iterative multi-class learning method to segment the femoral, tibial and patellar cartilage simultaneously, which ...

Interfacial Yield Stress Response in Synthetic Mucin Solutions
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.The solution rheology of novel synthetic mucins mimicking natural mucin domains is studied. Like many natural mucin solutions, apparent solid‐like rheology is seen. However, no bulk structural features are found to explain it. Interfacial rheology and robust modelling reveal that this arises from molecular associations at the air–water interface ...

Detection of Proteoglycan Loss from Articular Cartilage using Brillouin Microscopy, with Applications to Osteoarthritis [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The degeneration of articular cartilage (AC) occurs in osteoarthritis (OA), which is a leading cause of pain and disability in middle-aged and older people. The early disease related changes in cartilage extra-cellular matrix (ECM) start with depletion of proteoglycan(PG), leading to an increase in tissue hydration and permeability.

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

One year in review: ultrasound in arthritis [PDF]
, 2016 Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) has become a relevant part of rheumatology practice and research because it substantially allows us to optimize management of rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases. This non-invasive imaging modality is a valuable point-

Vertical Membrane‐Free Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for High‐Throughput In Vitro Studies and Drug Screening
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This novel microfluidic organ‐on‐a‐chip (OoC) platform enables cost‐effective, high‐throughput in vitro modeling. With vertical compartmentalization and gravity‐driven flow, it eliminates porous membranes and external pumps. Successfully generating intestine, cartilage, and tendon models, this study demonstrates drug responses, including 5‐fluorouracil
