Digital image processing methods were applied to cephalometric analysis. Conventionally taken x-rays were captured by the aid of a video-camera. Digital processing was done using the IPS-System (Kontron). The resulting average error of the method at this stage of development was comparable to that of the traditional method using a light box.

CT scan-derived pectoralis muscle parameters are closely associated with COVID-19 outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Critical Care Medicine, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: The relationships between pectoralis muscle parameters and outcomes in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) remain uncertain.
Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library from 1 January 2019 to 1 May 2024 to identify non-overlapping studies evaluating pectoralis muscle-associated index on chest CT scan with clinical outcome in COVID-19 patients. Random-effects and fixed-effects meta-analyses were performed, and heterogeneity between studies was quantified using the I2 statistic.
A clinical study exploring the prediction of microvascular invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma through the use of combined enhanced CT and MRI radiomics.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Geriatric Medicine, the Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical University, Guilin, Guangxi, China.
Objective: To develop a predictive model for microvascular invasion (MVI) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) through radiomics analysis, integrating data from both enhanced computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 93 HCC patients who underwent partial hepatectomy. The gold standard for MVI was based on the histopathological diagnosis of the tissue.
Relationship between serum urate and changes in dual-energy CT monosodium urate crystal volume over 1 year in people with gout: an individual participant data analysis.

January 2025
Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand. Electronic address:
Objectives: The dynamics of monosodium urate (MSU) crystal changes across a range of serum urate concentrations in people with gout are unknown. This study aimed to systematically examine the relationship between serum urate and changes in dual-energy CT (DECT) urate volume in people with gout and stable serum urate concentrations.
Methods: Individual participant data were analysed from three studies of people with gout.
Long-Term Outcomes of Regional Morphology in Spring-Assisted Surgery and Cranial Vault Remodeling.
Plast Reconstr Surg
February 2025
From the Departments of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
Background: Spring-assisted surgery (SAS) and cranial vault remodeling (CVR) are widely used surgical techniques to correct sagittal craniosynostosis (SC). The authors evaluated changes in regional morphology of patients with SC who had undergone SAS or CVR, using the frontal bossing index (FBI), occipital bulleting index, vertex narrowing index (VNI), and scaphocephalic severity index (SCI) to capture differences in anterior protrusion, posterior protrusion, width restriction, and global dysmorphology, respectively.
Methods: Indices were measured on computed tomography and 3-dimensional photographs (n = 788) of 257 patients with SC from 2001 through 2022 who underwent SAS (n = 177) or CVR (n = 80).
The Added Effect of Artificial Intelligence in CT Assessment of Abdominal Lymphadenopathy.
Lymphology
January 2025
Medical Biophysics Department, Medical Research Institute, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt.
Lymphadenopathy is associated with lymph node abnormal size or consistency due to many causes. We employed the deep convolutional neural network ResNet-34 to detect and classify CT images from patients with abdominal lymphadenopathy and healthy controls. We created a single database containing 1400 source CT images for patients with abdominal lymphadenopathy (n = 700) and healthy controls (n = 700).
