Abstract Purpose of Review We reviewed advances over the past 3 years in assessment of
fracture risk based on CT scans, considering methods that use finite element models …

Abstract Purpose of Review We re-evaluated clinical applications of image-to-FE models to
understand if clinical advantages are already evident, which proposals are promising, and …

In order to effectively treat bone fractures, an appropriate diagnosis must be made quickly
after the injury occurs. Medical picture segmentation is an area where deep learning …

Bone strength is an important contributor to fracture risk. Areal bone mineral density (aBMD)
derived from dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) is used as a surrogate for bone …

Medical pictures play a vital role in novel diagnosis; to achieve this, the quality of these
images must be improved in a way that meets the necessary standards. To deal with this …

Quantitative computed tomography (QCT)-based in silico models have demonstrated
improved accuracy in predicting hip fractures with respect to the current gold standard, the …

Despite evidence of the biomechanical role of cortical bone, current state of the art finite
element models of the proximal femur built from clinical CT data lack a subject-specific …

Morphological abnormalities of the femoroacetabular (hip) joint are among the most
common human musculoskeletal disorders and often develop asymptomatically at early …

Fracture is considered a critical clinical endpoint in skeletal pathologies including
osteoporosis and bone metastases. However, current clinical guidelines are limited with …

Methods for reliable femur segmentation enable the execution of quality retrospective
studies and building of robust screening tools for bone and joint disease. An enhance-and …
