Article Synopsis
- - A 4-year-old boy experienced malunion after surgery for a rare elbow fracture, leading to limited elbow flexion of 50°.
- - An MRI revealed a step-off in the cartilage as the cause of his flexion limitation.
- - After 5 years of conservative treatment, the boy's elbow flexion improved to 135°, and the cartilage step-off resolved, demonstrating potential for recovery in pediatric elbow fractures.
Background: Challenges persist in achieving automatic and efficient inflammation quantification using dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients.
Purpose: To investigate an automatic artificial intelligence (AI) approach and an optimized dynamic MRI protocol for quantifying disease activity in RA in whole hands while excluding arterial pixels.
Study Type: Retrospective.
Purpose: A classification-based segmentation method is proposed to quantify synovium in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients using a deep learning (DL) method based on time-intensity curve (TIC) analysis in dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI).
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study analyzed a hand MR dataset of 28 RA patients (six males, mean age 53.7 years).
