Rectus femoris tendon avulsion in an amateur athlete: case report diagnosed by magnetic resonance
Introduction: the rectus femoris muscle is the most frequently injured muscle of the quadriceps group during repetitive kicking and sprinting. Avulsions of the rectus femoris are rare injuries. Pain located at the proximal thigh and disability in flexing

Background:Many large studies have implemented wrist or thigh accelerometry to capture physical activity, but the accuracy of these measurements to infer activity energy expenditure (AEE) and consequently total energy expenditure (TEE) has not been ...

Precise Few-shot Fat-free Thigh Muscle Segmentation in T1-weighted MRI [PDF]
Precise thigh muscle volumes are crucial to monitor the motor functionality of patients with diseases that may result in various degrees of thigh muscle loss. T1-weighted MRI is the default surrogate to obtain thigh muscle masks due to its contrast between muscle and fat signals.

A “Steady‐state” paradigm of finger‐tapping task detected that self‐initiated finger‐tapping was more intensively associated with the motor‐related brain area than visual‐guided. Low‐frequency rTMS targeting individual task peak activation could precisely elevated the local neural activity in the putamen.

Semi-Supervised Deep Learning for Multi-Tissue Segmentation from Multi-Contrast MRI [PDF]
Segmentation of thigh tissues (muscle, fat, inter-muscular adipose tissue (IMAT), bone, and bone marrow) from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans is useful for clinical and research investigations in various conditions such as aging, diabetes mellitus, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and their associated comorbidities. Towards a fully automated, robust,

Single Slice Thigh CT Muscle Group Segmentation with Domain Adaptation and Self-Training [PDF]
Objective: Thigh muscle group segmentation is important for assessment of muscle anatomy, metabolic disease and aging. Many efforts have been put into quantifying muscle tissues with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging including manual annotation of individual muscles.

A novel approach for modelling and classifying sit-to-stand kinematics using inertial sensors [PDF]
Sit-to-stand transitions are an important part of activities of daily living and play a key role in functional mobility in humans. The sit-to-stand movement is often affected in older adults due to frailty and in patients with motor impairments such as Parkinson's disease leading to falls.
