Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common type of scoliosis, affecting 1-4% of adolescents. The Scoliosis Research Society-22R (SRS-22R), a health-related quality-of-life instrument for AIS, has allowed orthopedists to measure subjective patient outcomes before and after corrective surgery beyond objective radiographic measurements. However, research has revealed that there is no significant correlation between the correction rate in major radiographic parameters and improvements in patient-reported outcomes (PROs), making it difficult to incorporate PROs into personalized surgical planning.

Single-isocenter multitarget (SIMT) stereotactic-radiosurgery (SRS) has recently emerged as a powerful treatment regimen for intracranial tumors. With high specificity, SIMT SRS allows for rapid, high-dose delivery while maintaining integrity of adjacent healthy tissues and minimizing neurocognitive damage to patients. Highly robust and accurate quality assurance (QA) tests are critical to minimize off-targets and damage to surrounding healthy tissues.

Frozen section biopsy, introduced in the early 1900s, still remains the gold standard methodology for rapid histologic evaluations. Although a valuable tool, it is labor-, time-, and cost-intensive. Other challenges include visual and diagnostic variability, which may complicate interpretation and potentially compromise the quality of clinical decisions.

Purpose: Screening for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) currently relies on clinical evaluations by trained practitioners, most commonly using a scoliometer. Modern structured light 3D scanning can generate high-quality 3D representations of surface anatomy using a mobile device. We hypothesized that a mobile-based 3D scanning system would provide accurate deformity assessments compared to a scoliometer.

Background: In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning (DL) have made a considerable impact in dentistry, specifically in advancing image processing algorithms for detecting caries from radiographical images. Despite this progress, there is still a lack of data on the effectiveness of these algorithms in accurately identifying caries. This study provides an overview aimed at evaluating and comparing reviews that focus on the detection of using DL algorithms from 2D radiographs.
