Deep Learning Fetal Ultrasound Video Model Match Human Observers in Biometric Measurements [PDF]
Objective. This work investigates the use of deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) to automatically perform measurements of fetal body parts, including head circumference, biparietal diameter, abdominal circumference and femur length, and to estimate gestational age and fetal weight using fetal ultrasound videos. Approach. We developed a novel multi-

Correlation between lag screw route and the ideal insertion point of the intramedullary nail
Understanding the morphology of the superior aspect of the proximal femur is critical for treating femoral fracture. We assessed the correlation among the ideal insertion point of the femoral nail, femur head-neck axis, and native anteversion.

Brucellae osteoarthritis on the Head of the Femur [PDF]
We present an 11-year-old boy with Brucellae osteoarthritis on caput femoris. We therefore emphasize the importance of Brucellae osteoarthritis and in particular bone scintigraphy in the diagnosis of childhood monoarthritis.

Femoral Neck Angle Impacts Hip Disorder and Surgical Intervention: A Patient-Specific 3D Printed Analysis [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to investigate the femoral neck angulation for prediction of the complication associated with dynamic hip screw (DHS) surgery and hip deformity. Three sample patients' MRI images were selected to calculate the femoral neck angles.

Simultaneous imaging of hard and soft biological tissues in a low-field dental MRI scanner [PDF]
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of hard biological tissues is challenging due to the fleeting lifetime and low strength of their response to resonant stimuli, especially at low magnetic fields. Consequently, the impact of MRI on some medical applications, such as dentistry, continues to be limited. Here, we present three-dimensional reconstructions of
