INTRODUCTION The incidence of distal radius fractures (DRF) is anticipated to increase annually, mainly because of the extension in life expectancy and osteoporosis 1, 2. If DRFs are not treated ...

DR, digital radiograph; DRUJ, distal radioulnar joint. Two weeks after reduction, after the swelling subsided, the splint became slightly loose. A follow-up DR showed good alignment and positioning of ...

This paper proposes a simple and accurate global semantic attention mechanism based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). To validate its credibility, a total of 788 cases of normal and fractured ...

241858 Introduction: Studies conducted in the past six years, have demonstrated the superiority of distal forearm bone densitometry over axial bone densitometry for the prediction of osteoporotic ...

A broken wrist or distal radius fracture is an extremely common type of fracture. It accounts for 25% to 50% of all broken bones and is most commonly seen in older females and young males.

A male in his 70s presented with a chronic malunited comminuted Galeazzi fracture dislocation, including angular malunion, radial shortening (1.3 cm ulnar-plus variance) and distal radioulnar joint ...

Now we can get the distal radius orientation vector by trigonometric mathematics with the same principle (5). Distal radius orientation normal vector (unit vector) = (−cos θ sin φ, sin θ cos φ, cos θ ...

Distal radius fractures are the most common arm fracture. They make up about 16% of all fractures orthopedic surgeons treat. They’re most common in children and adults over age 50.

A typical digital X-ray image of the ultra-distal radius, as shown in Figure 1, was obtained by using a commercial available digital radiographic system. These digital X-ray images could qualitatively ...
