Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a method to restore astoundingly natural movement in people who have had leg amputations above the knee. Rather than fit ...

MIT researchers have introduced a groundbreaking bionic knee designed to significantly improve mobility for people with above ...

The procedure and material cost was included in the level of amputation cost. The sessions were categorised as major amputations, which involved below-knee and above-knee amputation, whereas minor ...

This paper describes an automated method for registering 3-D models of metallic knee implants to single-plane radiographic images. We develop a multistage approach that identifies the correct pose by ...

Active contour techniques have been widely employed for medical image segmentation. Significant effort has been focused on the use of training data to build prior statistical models applicable ...
