Skin marker-based subject-specific spinal alignment modeling: A feasibility study [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics. 2022;137:111102, 2021 Musculoskeletal models have the potential to improve diagnosis and optimize clinical treatment by predicting accurate outcomes on an individual basis. However, the subject-specific modeling of spinal alignment is often strongly simplified or is based on radiographic assessments, exposing subjects to unnecessary radiation. We therefore developed a novel

Intervertebral Disc Labeling With Learning Shape Information, A Look Once Approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Accurate and automatic segmentation of intervertebral discs from medical images is a critical task for the assessment of spine-related diseases such as osteoporosis, vertebral fractures, and intervertebral disc herniation. To date, various approaches have been developed in the literature which routinely relies on detecting the discs as the primary step.

Parametric study of lumbar belts in the case of low back pain: effect of patients' specific characteristics [PDF]
Computational Biomechanics for Medicine, Springer International
Publishing, pp.43-59, 2020, 2020 Objective: A numerical 3D model of the human trunk was developed to study the biomechanical effects of lumbar belts used to treat low back pain. Methods: This model was taken from trunk radiographies of a person and simplified so as to make a parametric study by varying morphological parameters of the patient, characteristic parameters of the lumbar ...

Intervertebral Disk Degeneration: The Microenvironment and Tissue Engineering Strategies
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Intervertebral disk degeneration (IVDD) is a leading cause of disability. The degeneration is inevitable, and the mechanisms are complex. Current therapeutic strategies mainly focus on the relief of symptoms, not the intrinsic regeneration of the ...
