RISDirectional Tortuosity as a Predictor of Modulus Damage for Vertebral Cancellous Bone
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There are many methods used to estimate the undamaged effective (apparent) moduli of cancellous bone as a function of bone volume fraction (BV/TV), mean intercept length (MIL), and other image based average microstructural ...
Measuring Three Dimensional Thorax Motion Via Biplane Radiographic Imaging: Technique and Preliminary Results
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Measures of scapulothoracic motion are dependent on accurate imaging of the scapula and thorax. Advanced radiographic techniques can provide accurate measures of scapular motion, but the limited 3D imaging volume of these ...
Stiffness and Strain Properties Derived From Digital Tomosynthesis-Based Digital Volume Correlation Predict Vertebral Strength Independently From Bone Mineral Density
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vertebral fractures are the most common osteoporotic fractures, but their prediction using standard bone mineral density (BMD) measurements from dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is limited in accuracy. Stiffness, ...
