Automatic Modelling of Human Musculoskeletal Ligaments -- Framework Overview and Model Quality Evaluation [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Accurate segmentation of connective soft tissues is still a challenging task, which hinders the generation of corresponding geometric models for biomechanical computations. Alternatively, one could predict ligament insertion sites and then approximate the shapes, based on anatomical knowledge and morphological studies. Here, we describe a corresponding

Periodontal Ligament and Alveolar Bone in Health and Adaptation: Tooth Movement.
Frontiers of oral biology, 2016 The periodontal ligament (PDL) and alveolar bone are two critical tissues for understanding orthodontic tooth movement. The current literature is replete with descriptive studies of multiple cell types and their matrices in the PDL and alveolar bone, but
