Bone Abstracts

Objective: Texture information of the subchondral bone area (SBA) of 2D radiographs represents a promising possibility for evaluating the state of osteoarthritis (OA). However such features are likely to vary within the SBA and therefore the selection of the region of interest (ROI) plays a crucial role. Thus, a feature selection algorithm (FSA) is being applied in order to determine ROIs that enable an optimum discrimination between patients with and without OA.<p class="...
