Article Abstract

We propose that the key to improving care for these patients is to truly understand the processes that take place from the interpretation of radiographic findings, through the assessment of the severity of various injuries, to inclusion within a classification category and finally to selecting a specific treatment.

Background: Charcot foot is a debilitating complication of peripheral neuropathy and is primarily associated with diabetes, leading to structural damage, ulceration, and osteomyelitis. Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is a promising treatment modality for wound healing and bone metabolism.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of PEMF therapy in promoting bone growth and ulcer healing in patients with Charcot foot ulcers.

Evaluation of deep learning-based segmentation models for carotid artery calcification detection in panoramic radiographs.

Oral Radiol

September 2025

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Eskisehir Osmangazi University, Meşelik Campus, Büyükdere Neighborhood, Prof. Dr. Nabi Avcı Boulevard No:4, Odunpazarı, Eskişehir, 26040, Turkey.

Objectives: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence-assisted segmentation methods in detecting carotid artery calcification (CAC) in panoramic radiographs and to compare the performance of different YOLO models: YOLOv5x-seg, YOLOv8x-seg, and YOLOv11x-seg. Additionally, the study aims to investigate the association between patient gender and the presence of CAC, as part of a broader epidemiological analysis.

Methods: In this study, 30,883 panoramic radiographs were scanned.

Purpose: This study aims to assess the outcomes of combining oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) with anterolateral screw fixation (ASF) and stress endplate augmentation (SEA) in comparison to OLIF combined with pedicle screw fixation (PSF) for the treatment of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) in patients with osteoporosis (OP).

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients diagnosed with DLSS who underwent OLIF in conjunction with either SEA and ASF (SEA-ASF group) or PSF (PSF group). Clinical outcomes, including the visual analog scale (VAS) scores for lumbar and leg pain, as well as the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), were assessed at various postoperative intervals and compared to preoperative values.

This study aimed to develop a deep-learning model for the automatic classification of mandibular fractures using panoramic radiographs. A pretrained convolutional neural network (CNN) was used to classify fractures based on a novel, clinically relevant classification system. The dataset comprised 800 panoramic radiographs obtained from patients with facial trauma.

Outcomes of Sinus Surgery and Orbital Reconstruction in Silent Sinus Syndrome: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

J Craniofac Surg

September 2025

Viterbi Family Department of Ophthalmology, Division of Oculofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Shiley Eye Institute, University of California, San Diego.

This study evaluates the clinical presentation, surgical management, and outcomes of silent sinus syndrome (SSS), with emphasis on the efficacy of simultaneous sinus and orbital surgery. A retrospective review was performed of 35 patients diagnosed with SSS at a tertiary care center between January 2004 and April 2024. All patients had radiographic evidence of maxillary sinus atelectasis and orbital floor resorption.
