New skeletal tuberculosis cases in past populations from Western Hungary (Transdanubia) [PDF]
, 2011 The distribution, antiquity and epidemiology of tuberculosis (TB) have previously been studied in osteoarchaeological material in the eastern part of Hungary, mainly on the Great Plain. The purpose of this study is to map the occurrence of skeletal TB in

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).

Energy-Based Prior Latent Space Diffusion model for Reconstruction of Lumbar Vertebrae from Thick Slice MRI [PDF]
MICCAI Workshop on Deep Generative Models, 2024Lumbar spine problems are ubiquitous, motivating research into targeted imaging for treatment planning and guided interventions. While high resolution and high contrast CT has been the modality of choice, MRI can capture both bone and soft tissue without the ionizing radiation of CT albeit longer acquisition time.

ACSGRegNet: A Deep Learning-based Framework for Unsupervised Joint Affine and Diffeomorphic Registration of Lumbar Spine CT via Cross- and Self-Attention Fusion [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Registration plays an important role in medical image analysis. Deep learning-based methods have been studied for medical image registration, which leverage convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for efficiently regressing a dense deformation field from a pair of images.

The accessory renal arteries: A systematic review with meta‐analysis
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.Abstract The accessory renal arteries (ARAs) are a well‐described variant of the renal vasculature with clinical implications for radiologists, surgeons, and clinicians. The aim of the present systematic review with meta‐analysis was to estimate the pooled prevalence of ARAs, including their variant number, origin, and termination, and to highlight ...

Automatic detection and segmentation of lumbar vertebra from X-ray images for compression fracture evaluation [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 For compression fracture detection and evaluation, an automatic X-ray image segmentation technique that combines deep-learning and level-set methods is proposed. Automatic segmentation is much more difficult for X-ray images than for CT or MRI images because they contain overlapping shadows of thoracoabdominal structures including lungs, bowel gases ...

Anatomical Study of the Retrodural Space of Okada in the Cervical Region: 3D Micro‐CT Findings
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The retrodural space of Okada (RSO) is a potential space located posterior to the ligamentum flavum. It can complicate epidural injections owing to its communication with the epidural space and facet joints. The purpose of this study was to clarify the anatomical structures of the cervical RSO and adjacent ligamentous tissues in cadavers ...

Experimentally based numerical models and numerical simulation with parameter identification of human lumbar FSUs in traction [PDF]
, 2004 Numerical simulation of the behaviour of human lumbar spine segments, moreover, parameter-identification of the component organs of human lumbar FSUs are presented in traction therapies, by using FEM analysis. First, a simple 2D model, than a refined 2D
