Graph Chatbot
Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Computer Graphics came into the medical world especially after the arrival of 3D medical imaging. Computer Graphics techniques are already integrated in the diagnosis procedure by means of the visual tridimensional analysis of computer tomography, magnetic ...
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common causes of pain and disability. Currently, non-surgical treatment is limited to analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs, which are not capable of either modifying the disease process or regenerate damaged parts in ...
Osteoarthritis is a painful and disabling progressive joint disease, characterized by degradation of articular cartilage. In order to study this disease at early stages, we have miniaturized and integrated a complete scanning force microscope into a standa ...
Micro Proton Induced X-ray Emission (mu-PIXE) analysis has been employed herein in investigating and quantifying the distribution of a number of essential elements in thin human diseased articular cartilage sections affected by osteoarthritis (OA). Various ...
Articular cartilage plays important roles in weight-bearing, lubrication, and load distribution in articulating joints. The tissue is mostly extracellular matrix (>90% by volume) that is synthesized and remodeled by cells (chondrocytes) embedded within. Ad ...
The extracellular matrix of dense, avascular tissues presents a barrier to entry for polymer-based therapeutics, such as drugs encapsulated within polymeric particles. Here, we present an approach by which polymer nanoparticles, suffciently small to enter ...
In the recent years medical diagnosis and surgery planning often require the precise evaluation of joint movements. This has led to exploit reconstructed three-dimensional models of the joint tissues obtained from CT or MR Images (for bones, cartilages, et ...
Injuries to the meniscus are often treated by partial or total meniscectomy, which is known to be associated with detrimental changes in joint function, ultimately increasing the risk of early degenerative joint diseases. Surgical approaches currently in u ...
Background. Intra-articular techniques (single and double bundles) are the most widely used procedures for the anterior cruciate lig- ament reconstruction. Lemaire introduced in 1967 the extra-articular techniques, and combined intra-articular and extra-ar ...
The zone of calcified cartilage (ZCC) is critical for the normal attachment of articular cartilage to bone as well as to the biomimetic bioengineering of osteochondral tissue constructs. However, relatively few osteochondral tissue engineering approaches h ...
