<h3>Progress</h3>
 
<h3>Progress</h3>
Software for the fiber tracking and statistical analysis along the tracts has been implemented. The statistical methods for diffusion tensors are implemented as ITK code as part of the [[NA-MIC/Projects/Diffusion_Image_Analysis/DTI_Software_and_Algorithm_Infrastructure|DTI Software Infrastructure]] project. The methods have been validated on a repeated scan of a healthy individual. This work has been published as a conference paper (MICCAI 2005) and a journal version (MEDIA 2006). Our recent IPMI 2007 paper includes a nonparametric regression method for analyzing data along a fiber tract.

Spine Segmentation & Osteoporosis Detection In CT Imaging Studies

Osteoporosis

A condition of bone mineral loss affecting the aging population

  • Impacts 200 million people WW
  • Leads to 9 million fractures each year
  • Inflicts pain, morbidity, and mortality
  • Direct annual costs: close to $20 billion in the US, €30+ billion in Europe
  • Fractures and complications are preventable with lifestyle changes, diet, and medication
  • However, Osteoporosis is largely underdiagnosed

Key Investigators

  • Radnostics: Anthony Blumfield
  • Albert Einstein College of Medicine: Einat Blumfield, MD
  • Jacobi Medical Center: Jay Leb, MD
  • BWH: Ron Kikinis, MD

Objective

Radnostics Osteoporosis Detection is a solution for early detection of osteoporosis in CT scans performed for other clinical indications

  • Tens of millions of CT scans are performed annually for various medical conditions
  • We measure osteoporosis biomarkers and detect patients at risk
  • 100% automated & integrated into the clinical workflow


Approach, Plan

Create a 3D Slicer v4 command line module for Radnostics Beta2.

Progress


Delivery Mechanism
