Deep learning for automated diagnosis and differentiation of otitis media on temporal bone CT
Orthopedics Imaging 1 min.
The accurate diagnosis of otitis media (OM) has long been a challenge for clinicians (especially for less experienced clinicians) due to the variety of types and the complex anatomical structures of the middle ear. Although deep learning (DL) based on different examination methods (mostly otoscopy) has...
Impact of 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography on management and clinical outcomes in patients with failed back surgery syndrome
Orthopedics Imaging 1 min.
Failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), defined as persistent or recurrent back pain after spine stabilization surgery (SSS), presents substantial diagnostic and therapeutic challenges with significant healthcare and socioeconomic burden. Anatomical imaging modalities often yield inconclusive findings....
Radiation-free diagnosis of lumbar spondylolysis: case series evaluating MRI-based synthetic CT efficacy
Orthopedics Imaging 1 min.
Computed tomography (CT) is favored for diagnosing lumbar spondylolysis owing to its high resolution, rapid scanning, and cost-effectiveness. Nonetheless, the high levels of radiation exposure associated with it limit its use, especially in younger populations. To mitigate these concerns, deep learning...
Photon-counting CT: image quality evaluation in patients with tibial plateau fracture treated with metallic osteosynthesis material
Orthopedics Imaging 1 min.
The aim was to compare the image quality of photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) and energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT) in patients with tibial plateau fractures treated with metallic osteosynthesis material, and to identify optimal reconstruction parameters for PCD-CT. Materials and methods: After...
