Our method:
- automatically segments radius and ulna bones
- uses a pose estimation network to assess rotational parameters of the bones
- automatically detects fracture locations
- combines all the information to infer the 3D fracture angles

The paper has been published at MIDL.

We propose a deep learning-based method that allows for measuring 3D angles from standard non-orthogonal planar X-rays, which allows for patient movement between the images are acquired.

We addressed this by using contours from the image to guide the diffusion model and showed quite a good performance of the model!

Congrats to Yuwen Chen, who is the first author, and the other team members!

The issue for such translation is that for a given body part, the CT and MRI images often have a different field of view, resulting in different structures being portrayed in the image.

- we explored different ways of integrating adapted models
- we validated our method with 24 source domain-target domain splits for 3 medical imaging datasets
- our method outperforms SOTA by 2.9% on average in terms of Dice similarity coefficient
- published in a CVPR workshop

Our evaluation on multiple tasks showed strong improvements as compared to SAM 2 and a promise to significantly speed up the annotation process.

Introducing Short-Long Memory SAM 2 (SLM-SAM 2) with a novel architecture combining short and long memory banks. The motivation was to reduce the propagation of error to slices far from the annotated ones.

The recently released Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM 2) allows for extending annotations from one frame of a video to other frames. We leveraged this ability but discovered that it doesn't translate well to medical imaging and had to make a few changes.
