METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATIC EXTRACTION OF LOAD-BEARING REGIONS OF THE CARTILAGE AND MEASUREMENT OF BIOMARKERS |
摘要 |
An image is taken of a knee or other region of interest. The cartilage is extracted from the image and is subdivided into load-bearing and non-load-bearing regions. A biomarker is calculated for each of the load-bearing and non-load-bearing regions. The biomarkers can be assessed over time. The biomarkers for the load-bearing and non-load-bearing regions, and their changes, are used to assess the progress of joint disease. |
