Two stage-network: Automatic localization of Optic Disc (OD) and classification of glaucoma in fundus images using deep learning techniques
Glaucoma is an ophthalmic disorder which results in permanent vision loss because high intraocular pressure damages the optic nerve in the eye. This...

Role of magnetic resonance imaging features in diagnosing and localization of disc rupture related to cervical spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormalities
Study designA retrospective study.
ObjectiveTraumatic cervical spinal cord injury (TSCI) is often associated with disc rupture. It was reported that...

A Novel Hybrid Optic Disc Detection and Fovea Localization Method Integrating Region-Based Convnet and Mathematical Approach
Optic disc (OD), fovea, and blood vessels are major anatomical structures in a fundus image. In retinal image processing, automated detection of...
-
Detection of Optic Disc Localization from Retinal Fundus Image Using Optimized Color Space
Optic disc localization offers an important clue in detecting other retinal components such as the macula, fovea, and retinal vessels. With the...

JAYA Algorithm Versus Differential Evolution: A Comparative Case Study on Optic Disc Localization in Eye Fundus Images
In various retinal vascular disorders such as Cataract, glaucoma, diabetic macula and diabetic retinopathy, eye fundus images are extensively used... -
Cervical Disc Herniation
Cervical disc herniation (CDH) is defined as the displacement of the nucleus pulposus beyond the limits of the intervertebral disc (annulus... -
Intervertebral disc-intrinsic Hedgehog signaling maintains disc cell phenotypes and prevents disc degeneration through both cell autonomous and non-autonomous mechanisms
Intervertebral disc degeneration is closely related to abnormal phenotypic changes in disc cells. However, the mechanism by which disc cell...

Autophagy in an extruded disc compared to the remaining disc after lumbar disc herniation in the same patient
PurposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate autophagy in an extruded disc and to compare this activity with the activity in the remaining...

Microsurgical Disc Surgery
The primary goal in disc surgery is to treat nerve root irritation or compression due to displaced disc tissue. In the case of spinal stenosis, bony... -
Intraradicular Lumbar Disc Herniations
Intraradicular disc herniation is a special type of intradural disc herniation (c.f. Chap. 30 ) where an... -
Can optic disc vessel density help in cases of residual disc elevation after shunt surgery in cases of idiopathic intracranial hypertension?
AimTo detect if we can use the reduction in the optic disc vessel density as an indicator to the reduction in intracranial tension in patients with...
-
Thoracic Disc Herniation and Stenosis
Thoracic disc herniation is an uncommon spine condition due to the unique anatomy of the thoracic vertebrae. It can be asymptomatic or produce back... -
ODGNet: a deep learning model for automated optic disc localization and glaucoma classification using fundus images
Glaucoma is one of the prevalent causes of blindness in the modern world. It is a salient chronic eye disease that leads to irreversible vision loss....

Inter-dataset performance analysis of generative adversarial networks for optic disc segmentation using digital fundus images
PurposeOptic disc segmentation helps in non-invasive diagnosis of incurable and blindness-causing diseases of the eye such as glaucoma, diabetic...
-
Multiple graph reasoning network for joint optic disc and cup segmentation
Glaucoma is one of the most irreversible eye diseases that causes visual damage worldwide. For glaucoma screening, it is essential to accurately...

Lumbar Foraminal Stenosis Combined with Disc Herniation
Lumbar foraminal stenosis is a condition seen in degenerative lumbar spines defined as the narrowing of the bony exit of the nerve root. In some... -
A new perspective on intervertebral disc calcification—from bench to bedside
Disc degeneration primarily contributes to chronic low back and neck pain. Consequently, there is an urgent need to understand the spectrum of disc...
-
Correlation between inflammatory cytokine expression in paraspinal tissues and severity of disc degeneration in individuals with lumbar disc herniation
PurposePrevious animal studies have discovered dysregulation of the local inflammatory state as a novel mechanism to explain structural changes in...
