Vertebral Morphometry: Semiautomatic Determination of Detailed Shape From Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Images Using Active Appearance Models
Investigative Radiology, 11/30/2006
Roberts, Martin MA, et al. - Conclusion: Vertebral morphometry measurements may be substantially automated even on noisy data with multiple fractures present. The shape and appearance parameters of the models could provide more powerful quantitative classifiers of osteoporotic vertebral fracture
