Purpose: Spinal muscles are a major component of posture in spinal pathologies and changes to the spine with aging. Specifically, spinopelvic muscles may compensate for underlying anomalies such as pelvic retroversion, ...

Finite element models (FEMs) derived from QCT-scans were developed to evaluate vertebral strength but QCT scanners limitations are restrictive for routine osteoporotic diagnosis. A new approach considers using bi-planar ...

Introduction Computer navigated total hip arthroplasty is mostly based on the use of the anterior pelvic plane (APP) as a reference. EOS is a new imaging system that provides three-dimensional analysis of the pelvis in a ...

Background: The deep learning-based human pose estimation methods, which can estimate joint centers position, have achieved promising results on the publicly available human pose datasets (e.g., Human3.6 M). However, these ...
