Lumbar discectomy with annulus fibrosus closure: A retrospective series of 53 consecutive patients

Constantin Tuleasca

Introduction. - Lumbar disc herniation is most common degenerative alteration of the spine. Whenever surgical therapy proves to be necessary, recurrent disc herniation is most frequent concern. Here, primary aim was to determine the percentage of patients ...

Gait Variability to Phenotype Common Orthopedic Gait Impairments Using Wearable Sensors

Wei Zhang, Amir Muaremi

Mobility impairments are a common symptom of age-related degenerative diseases. Gait features can discriminate those with mobility disorders from healthy individuals, yet phenotyping specific pathologies remains challenging. This study aims to identify if ...

Value of T-2 Mapping MRI for Prostate Cancer Detection and Classification

Tom Hilbert

Background Currently, multi-parametric prostate MRI (mpMRI) consists of a qualitative T-2, diffusion weighted, and dynamic contrast enhanced imaging. Quantification of T-2 imaging might further standardize PCa detection and support artificial intelligence ...

Model-based super-resolution reconstruction of T-2 maps

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Gian Franco Piredda, Reto Meuli, Mohammad Golbabaee, Wajiha Bano

Purpose High-resolution isotropic T-2 mapping of the human brain with multi-echo spin-echo (MESE) acquisitions is challenging. When using a 2D sequence, the resolution is limited by the slice thickness. If used as a 3D acquisition, specific absorption rate ...
