Bone age assessments are methods that doctors use in pediatric medicine. They are used to assess the growth of children by analyzing X-ray images. This work focuses on the development of a deep learning model to estimate from X-ray images. Such a model would avoid the fallacies of ...
At diagnosis, all patients underwent chest X-ray (CXR), chest CT and bone scintigraphy; three patients also had MR and three had US. During treatment... G Sallustio,T Pirronti,A Lasorella,... - 《Pediatric Radiology》 被引量: 7117发表: 1998年 Guidelines for bone scintigraphy in children...
Measurement of hand bone mineral content by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry: development of the method, and its application in normal volunteers and in pa... METHODS--The x ray beam of the Hologic QDR 1000 dual energy x ray absorptiometer was hardened by introducing a perspex-aluminium plate...
On the one hand, bone biopsy with histomorphometry is the gold standard for assessing bone health, but it is expensive, invasive and requires expertise in the interpretation of bone histology. On the other hand, currently available non-invasive measures, including dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry ...
Introduction: Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) evaluates the total-body bone mineral content (BMC), bone mineral density (BMD), fat free mass (FFM) and fat body mass (FBM). These are frequently affected in PD patients. Objectives: To evaluate body composition in children in PD by ...
Cervical x-ray ruled out bone involvement. Ultrasonography and computed tomographic scans were not done due to financial constraints. A wet mount preparation of pus sample demonstrated granules and gram stained smears showed gram–positive, filament- ous bacteria. Aerobic culture of pus on blood agar...
X-ray evaluation of the lower limbs showed increased bone density at femurs and tibias with signs of periostitis: on STIR sequence MRI these bones presented areas of hyperintense signal. Bone biopsy revealed a thickened periosteum that was strongly adherent to the underlying tissue. Histopathologic...
paediatric skulls (age range of 4 to 10 years-old) coming from the anatomical collection of the University of Hasselt (Hasselt, Belgium) with a soft tissue substitute (Mix-D)6in order to simulate the human soft tissues and their effects on x-ray attenuation, scattering and the resulting ...
The study by Pearce et al (2012) assessed the risk of leukaemia and brain tumour associated with a uniform estimated absorbed dose of radiation in the red bone marrow and brain tissue from all CT scans. In our study, however, we did not use a uniform estimated specific organ-absorbed dose...
Her chest X-ray was negative. Mantoux test was positive with an induration of 15 millimeters (mm) after 48 hours and 18 mm after 72 hours, also a Quantiferon test was positive. L.B. f. 12 years old had an history of fever, headache, fatigue, joint pain and skin lesions.The ...
