Automatic Quantification of Radiographic Finger Joint Space Width of Patients With Early Rheumatoid Arthritis

The proposed method is able to automatically locate the finger joints in RA hand radiographs, and to quantify the JSW of these joints.

Validation of automatic joint space width measurements in hand radiographs in rheumatoid arthritis

Variation in the process of image acquisition was a more frequent source of error than incorrect delineation by the software in a recently developed system to measure metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints, which performed comparable to the Sharp–van der Heijde score.

A survey on Automatic Analysis of Statistical Properties of Rheumatoid Arthritis using Digital Image Processing

Rheumatoid arthritis destroys joints of the body like erosion in bones which intern may cause deformity and characterized by inflammation of the tissue around the joints as well as in other organs of…

Segmentation and determination of joint space width in foot radiographs

A novel model based image analysis algorithm for JSW measurements is developed and a first step towards automated determination of progression of RA and therapy response in feet using radiographs is taken.

Arthritis Identification from Multiple Regions by X-Ray Image Processing

The classification is done on the basis of differentiation in the region properties and boundary areas that can be identified using MATLAB to better understanding the variation in the knee, hands and neck region.

Computerised versus conventional methodology of radiographic joint destruction assessment in early rheumatoid arthritis

It is shown that excluding CMC3-5 has limited influence on JSN scores and the feasibility of using IJSTP-based reading for computerised scoring of JSN (progression) in RA is shown.

Rheumatoid Arthritis: Automated Scoring of Radiographic Joint Damage

An automatic tool was built to produce scores with extremely high balanced accuracy within a couple of minutes and would remove the subjectivity of the scores between human reviewers, and the ±1 balanced accuracy of the 4 models showed great potential in achieving industry-standard reliability.

A Novel Method for Automatic Localization of Joint Area on Knee Plain Radiographs

A novel and computationally efficient method to automatically annotate conventional knee radiographs within 14–16 ms and high resolution ones within 170 ms is developed and demonstrated that the developed method is suitable for large-scale analyses.

Segmentation of Thermal Images for Evaluation of Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease

Thermography is considered as a novelistic imaging technique for diagnosing the RA and experimental results show the effectiveness of these algorithms to detect Rheumatoid Arthritis.

An Efficient CNN for Hand X-Ray Classification of Rheumatoid Arthritis

The convolutional neural network (CNN) which has the ability to naturally gain proficiency with the qualities and anticipate the class of hand radiographs from an expansive informational collection is presented.

Hand Radiograph Analysis and Joint Space Location Improvement for Image Interpretation

An improvement of a method used to quantify the minimal JSW in hand radiographs, proposed by the author in his previous works, is considered and has an impact on initial pre-processing and joint space location.

Segmentation of Radiographs of Hands with Joint Damage Using Customized Active Appearance Models

The goal is to design a robust segmentational algorithm for the hand skeleton based on active appearance models (AAM) based on multiple object warps for each individual bone in a single AAM, which makes the algorithm more robust in cases where joint damage is present.

Neural network based algorithm to quantify joint space width in joints of the hand for arthritis assessment.

An automated method is described which calculates the average JSW of the metacarpophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal (PIP), and distal interphalangesal (DIP) joint spaces for fingers 2 to 5 on digitized hand radiographs and should provide a more quantitative measure of disease progression than current methods.

Computer based methods for measurement of joint space width: update of an ongoing OMERACT project.

Results were considered strong evidence supporting the validity of computer-based JSW measurements to continue the study of the potential value of JSW by comparison of measurements to manual scoring of joint space narrowing using the COBRA trial images.

Metacarpophalangeal length in the evaluation of skeletal malformation.

The use of bone lengths in hand syndromes of chromosomal, genetic, and endocrine origin are described and standards for metacarpal and phalangeal lengths by row and ray are presented.

Segmentation of medical images combining local, regional, global, and hierarchical distances into a bottom-up region merging scheme

Local, regional, global, and hierarchical components are combined task-specifically guiding the iterative region merging process, and a correct localization and delineation is obtained with the combined model.
