We report a case of congenital kyphosis in a 5-year-old child. Although she was presented before the age of 1 year to her local orthopaedic unit, a definitive diagnosis of unsegmented vertebra was made when she was referred to our unit. The child was treated with posterior fusion, which improved part of the deformity and completely prevented ...

2D-3D registration of CT vertebra volume to fluoroscopy projection: A calibration model assessment (doi:10.1155/2010/806094) [PDF]
This study extends a previous research concerning intervertebral motion registration by means of 2D dynamic fluoroscopy to obtain a more comprehensive 3D description of vertebral kinematics. The problem of estimating the 3D rigid pose of a CT volume of a

Excessive growth hormone expression in male GH transgenic mice adversely alters bone architecture and mechanical strength [PDF]
Patients with acromegaly have a higher prevalence of vertebral fractures despite normal bone mineral density (BMD), suggesting that GH overexpression has adverse effects on skeletal architecture and strength. We used giant bovine GH (bGH) transgenic mice
