Opportunistic computed tomography-based vertebral attenuation for osteoporosis screening

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate opportunistic vertebral trabecular attenuation on routine unenhanced abdominal computed tomography for predicting osteoporosis and its relationship with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry parameters. METHODS: This retrospective study inc luded 350 patients (mean ag...

Quantitative Evaluation of the Masseter and Temporalis Muscles with Shear Wave Elastography in MRI-Verified Temporomandibular Disorders.

Artifact-Controlled Multi-Vertebral Transfer Learning Ensemble for Patient-Level Three-Class Osteoporosis Screening Using Thoracoabdominal CT-Derived Lumbar Images

Background/Objectives: Osteoporosis and osteopenia remain underdiagnosed despite routine CT examinations containing potentially useful bone information. This study evaluated the feasibility of patient-level three-class classification of Normal, Osteopenia, and Osteoporosis classes using lumbar vertebral PNG images deri...

Comparison of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and lumbar radiographs using deep learning for osteoporosis diagnosis.

DL analysis of lumbar radiographs, combined with transfer learning and metaheuristic optimization, may support BMD category classification as a complementary screening tool for osteoporosis screening and diagnosis.
