Collo-Diaphyseal Angle as an Optimal Anthropometric Criterion of Femur in Gender Determination [PDF]
Background: Gender determination is an important challenge in the identification of skeletal remnants and dismembered bodies. The femur bone is more likely to be preserved during accidents and over time; thus, it is one of the most useful bones in ...

Automated volumetric and statistical shape assessment of cam-type morphology of the femoral head-neck region from 3D magnetic resonance images [PDF]
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) cam morphology is routinely assessed using two-dimensional alpha angles which do not provide specific data on cam size characteristics. The purpose of this study is to implement a novel, automated three-dimensional (3D) pipeline, CamMorph, for segmentation and measurement of cam volume, surface area and height from ...

Microfilm Coatings: A Biomaterial-Based Strategy for Modulating Femoral Deflection
Wear on the surface of the femoral head increases the risk of hip and femur fractures. Biomechanical experiments conducted on the femur are based on its bending and torsional rigidities. Studies regarding the deflection of the femur bone when the femoral

Embryonic cranial cartilage defects in the Fgfr3Y367C/+ mouse model of achondroplasia
Abstract Achondroplasia, the most common chondrodysplasia in humans, is caused by one of two gain of function mutations localized in the transmembrane domain of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) leading to constitutive activation of FGFR3 and subsequent growth plate cartilage and bone defects.

Automated femur segmentation from computed tomography images using a deep neural network [PDF]
Osteoporosis is a common bone disease that occurs when the creation of new bone does not keep up with the loss of old bone, resulting in increased fracture risk. Adults over the age of 50 are especially at risk and see their quality of life diminished because of limited mobility, which can lead to isolation and depression.

Morphological and Morphometric Variations of Fovea Capitis Femoris: A Cross-sectional Study from Kolkata, West Bengal, India [PDF]
Introduction: The proximal end of the femur is an important anatomical modification in humans, widely explored to acquire detailed knowledge that aids in determining the exact size of hip prosthesis and minimising postoperative complications.
