OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) model to automatically identify the manufacturer and model of hip internal fixation devices from anteroposterior (AP) radiographs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this retrospective study, 1721 hip AP radiographs, including six internal fixation devices from 1012 patients, were collected from an orthopedic center between June 2014 and June 2022 to establish a classification network...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate bone density changes at the level of normal trabecular bone and bone metastases (BMs) after denosumab (DM) treatment in oncologic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated 31 consecutive adult patients with histologically confirmed solid tumors with at least one newly diagnosed bone metastatic lesion detected at CT. Patients received treatment with DM, 120 mg subcutaneous every 28 days for at least 6 months. Bone density was determined at the level of BMs and at the level of normal trabecular bone of lumbar vertebrae using a region of interest (ROI)-based approach...

OBJECTIVE: The scaphoid is proposed to be driven by the distal carpal row in scapholunate instability (SLI) as it is dissociated from the proximal row. The aim of this study was to describe the 6 degrees of freedom kinematics of the scaphoid using dynamic CT in the normal and SLI wrists. We hypothesised that the SLI scaphoid would demonstrate kinematic evidence conforming to distal row motion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied dynamic CT scans of 17 SLI and 17 normal wrists during ulnar to radial deviation and extension to flexion...

Hallux valgus surgery concerns many patients and various techniques are performed. The assessment of the first toe deformity correction is mainly visual and imaging is required to analyze the intermetatarsal angle and depict complications. However, it is often difficult for the radiologist to distinguish normal and pathological conditions, especially in case of osteotomies which may show various aspects of bone mineralization and healing. In this review, the most relevant imaging features of the post-operative hallux valgus are summarized...

OBJECTIVE: To compare the image quality and agreement among conventional and accelerated periodically rotated overlapping parallel lines with enhanced reconstruction (PROPELLER) MRI with both conventional reconstruction (CR) and deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR) methods for evaluation of shoulder. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We included patients who underwent conventional (acquisition time, 8 min) and accelerated (acquisition time, 4 min and 24 s; 45% reduction) PROPELLER shoulder MRI using both CR and DLR methods between February 2021 and February 2022 on a 3 T MRI system...

Imaging plays a pivotal role in osteoarthritis research, particularly in epidemiological and clinical trials of knee osteoarthritis (KOA), with the ultimate goal being the development of an effective drug treatment for future prevention or cessation of disease. Imaging assessment methods can be semi-quantitative, quantitative, or a combination, with quantitative methods usually relying on software to assist. The software generally attempts image segmentation (outlining of relevant structures). New techniques using artificial intelligence (AI) or deep learning (DL) are currently a frequent topic of research...

REVIEW

Pregnant women experience a wide range of musculoskeletal pain disorders, which include general ailments occurring during pregnancy, exacerbation of pre-existing conditions, or pregnancy-specific pain/inflammatory conditions. There are significant concerns and knowledge gaps surrounding the safety, dosage, and potential long-term effects of several drugs used during pregnancy. Our article reviews the use of focal steroid injections during pregnancy. A mixture of case studies, meta-analyses, and randomised controlled trials have shown at least there is no adverse side effect to the mother or baby from maternal use of non-systemic injection during pregnancy and a significant improvement in symptoms of pain or paraesthesia can be achieved in patients that do not respond to more conservative measures...

Accurately detecting and characterizing articular cartilage defects is critical in assessing patients with osteoarthritis. While radiography is the first-line imaging modality, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most accurate for the noninvasive assessment of articular cartilage. Multiple semiquantitative grading systems for cartilage lesions in MRI were developed. The Outerbridge and modified Noyes grading systems are commonly used in clinical practice and for research. Other useful grading systems were developed for research, many of which are joint-specific...

OBJECTIVE: To assess the relationship of the infrapatellar plica (IPP) with femoral trochlear chondrosis (FTC) using radiographs and 3.0-T MRI. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Four hundred eighty-three knees of 476 patients undergoing radiography and MRI were reviewed, and 280 knees of 276 patients were included. We performed a comparison of the frequency of the IPP between men and women, and that of FTC and chondromalacia patella between knees with and without the IPP. In knees with the IPP, we analyzed the correlation between FTC and sex, age, laterality, Insall-Salvati ratio (ISR), femoral sulcus angle, tilting angle, height of insertion of the IPP to Hoffa's fat pad, and width of the IPP...

OBJECTIVE: To compare radiological measurements of the patellofemoral joint (PFJ) morphology and measurement reproducibility across the following scanning modalities: (a) 3 T supine MRI, (b) 0.25 T supine MRI and (c) standing 0.25 T MRI. METHODS: Forty patients referred to MRI of the knee were scanned by high field 3 T MRI in supine position and low field 0.25 T positional (pMRI) in supine and standing positions. Radiological measurements for assessment of femoral trochlear morphology, patellar tracking, patellar height and knee flexion angle were compared across scanning situations by one-way repeated-measures ANOVA...

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study is to determine whether smooth kernel reconstructions are more sensitive than sharp kernel ones for the detection of sacral stress fractures (SF) using MRI as the reference standard. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 100 subjects in whom CT and MR of the pelvis were performed for a clinical suspicion of SF from January 2014 to May 2020 in our institution. MR was used as the reference standard for the presence of SF...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between nonossifying fibroma (NOF) and perilesional edema-like marrow signal intensity (ELMSI) on MRI and discuss the clinical and diagnostic implications of this finding. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective search for "nonossifying fibroma" and "NOF" on knee MRI reports of patients up to 20 years of age over a 5-year period was performed. A total of 77 patients (34 males, 43 females, ages 11-20) were identified, and each MRI was reviewed to evaluate for ELMSI associated with the NOF...

REVIEW
Rene Balza, William E Palmer
Lumbar spine MRI is associated with a high prevalence of morphological abnormalities in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals. A difficult challenge, therefore, is distinguishing the relevant findings causing symptoms from incidental findings. The accurate diagnosis of pain generator is important because misdiagnosis can negatively impact patient management and outcome. Spine physicians use clinical symptoms and signs to interpret lumbar spine MRI and make treatment decisions. Symptom-MRI correlation enables the targeted inspection of images for pain generator...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to investigate the safety and feasibility of ultrasound-guided nerve block prior to biopsy of potentially neurogenic tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective review of the medical record from June 2017 to June 2022 identified ultrasound-guided biopsies of potentially neurogenic tumors that were performed with a pre-procedural nerve block. Patient demographics, biopsy site, number of passes, needle gauge, use of sedation, pathology results, and procedural complications were recorded and summarized...
