General Structure of a Vertebra01:30

General Structure of a Vertebra

8.7K
A typical vertebra, with the exception of the sacrum and coccyx, consists of a body, a vertebral arch, and seven different projections termed processes. The anterior portion of the vertebrae, the body, supports about half the body’s weight. The vertebral bodies progressively increase in size and thickness from the cervical region to the lumbar region of the vertebral column. The intervertebral discs present between the bodies of adjacent vertebrae firmly unites them, forming a continuous...

Vertebral Column: Regions and Curvature

12.2K
The vertebral column or spine is a flexible column that supports the head, neck, and body and  allows for their movements. It also protects the spinal cord.
Regions of the Vertebral Column
In an adult, the spine is subdivided into five regions: the cervical, the thoracic, the lumbar, the sacral, and the coccygeal region. The spine initially develops as a series of 33 vertebrae; after 20 years of age, the nine bones in the sacral region, five sacral, and four coccygeal bones fuse to form...

Classification of Bones01:18

Classification of Bones

15.9K
The bones of the human skeletal system are of varied shapes, sizes, and functions. They can be classified based on their shape and function into four major classes: long bones, short bones, flat bones, and irregular bones. Some classifications include a fifth type, the sesamoid bones, as a separate class, whereas others categorize them under short bones.
Long and Short Bones
The appendicular skeleton, particularly the upper and lower limbs, is primarily made of long and short bones. The...

Deformation of Member under Multiple Loadings01:11

Deformation of Member under Multiple Loadings

640
When a rod is made of different materials or has various cross-sections, it must be divided into parts that meet the necessary conditions for determining the deformation. These parts are each characterized by their internal force, cross-sectional area, length, and modulus of elasticity. These parameters are then used to compute the deformation of the entire rod.
In the case of a member with a variable cross-section, the strain is not constant but depends on the position. The deformation of an...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Computer-Aided Diagnosis
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Automatic vertebra recognition is crucial for computer-aided diagnosis of spine problems.
    • Existing methods often simplify recognition to detection, limiting quantitative spine assessment.
    • Spine recognition faces challenges due to appearance variations and geometric distortions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a 3D deformable hierarchical model (DHM) for accurate vertebra recognition.
    • To achieve cross-modality identification of vertebra location, pose, and labels.
    • To enable global 3D spine shape recovery for quantitative analysis.

    Main Methods:

    • Recasting vertebra recognition as 3D deformable model matching.
    • Fitting spine images with the 3D DHM using deformations.
    • Utilizing the 3D model-matching mechanism for simultaneous identification and 3D mesh generation.

    Main Results:

    • Successfully extracted vertebra locations, labels, and poses from multi-slice T1/T2 MR and volume CT data.
    • Reconstructed 3D spine models from various views (lumbar, cervical, whole spine).
    • Demonstrated versatile recognition capabilities on volume, multi-slice, and single-slice data.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed DHM method offers comprehensive vertebra identification beyond traditional detection.
    • The recovered 3D spine shape and detailed vertebra information support quantitative diagnosis.
    • The method is suitable for integration into medical Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS).
