3DDX: Bone Surface Reconstruction from a Single Standard-Geometry Radiograph via Dual-Face Depth Estimation

Yi Gu, Yoshito Otake, Keisuke Uemura +6

Radiography is widely used in orthopedics for its affordability and low radiation exposure. 3D reconstruction from a single radiograph, so-called 2D-3D reconstruction, offers the p…

Validation of musculoskeletal segmentation model with uncertainty estimation for bone and muscle assessment in hip-to-knee clinical CT images

Mazen Soufi, Yoshito Otake, Makoto Iwasa +12

Deep learning-based image segmentation has allowed for the fully automated, accurate, and rapid analysis of musculoskeletal (MSK) structures from medical images. However, current a…

Enhancing Quantitative Image Synthesis through Pretraining and Resolution Scaling for Bone Mineral Density Estimation from a Plain X-ray Image

Yi Gu, Yoshito Otake, Keisuke Uemura +6

While most vision tasks are essentially visual in nature (for recognition), some important tasks, especially in the medical field, also require quantitative analysis (for quantific…
