Submillimeter-Accurate 3D Lumbar Spine Reconstruction from Biplanar X-Ray Images: Incorporating a Multi-Task Network and Landmark-Weighted Loss [PDF]
arXivThree-dimensional reconstruction of the spine under weight-bearing conditions from biplanar X-ray images is of great importance for the clinical assessment of spinal diseases. However, the current fully automated reconstruction methods only achieve millimeter-level accuracy, making it difficult to meet clinical standards.

DeepSPINE: Automated Lumbar Vertebral Segmentation, Disc-level Designation, and Spinal Stenosis Grading Using Deep Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The high prevalence of spinal stenosis results in a large volume of MRI imaging, yet interpretation can be time-consuming with high inter-reader variability even among the most specialized radiologists. In this paper, we develop an efficient methodology to leverage the subject-matter-expertise stored in large-scale archival reporting and image data for

Expert Perspective: How, When, and Why to Potentially Stop Antiresorptive Drugs in Osteoporosis
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Osteoporosis is a chronic disease, and antiresorptive treatments are often continued for many years. Despite their established efficacy in reducing fracture risk, the most commonly used antiresorptive treatments, bisphosphonates and denosumab, have short‐ and long‐term risks that, coupled with their benefits and other unique characteristics, influence ...

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 91, Issue 5, Page 1352-1360, May 2025.Abstract The development of humanized IgG1 anti‐amyloid monoclonal antibodies, such as lecanemab, provides a promising novel treatment pathway with potential disease‐modifying effects for patients with early Alzheimer's disease (AD). Lecanemab, which gained marketing approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) in July 2023, has ...

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
BMEMat, EarlyView.This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).
