Vertebral osteophyte of pre-modern Korean skeletons from Joseon tombs
Spinal osteophytic changes are known to be affected by differences in age, sex, population, and mechanical stress. We examined Joseon skeletons (n=87) to obtain vertebral osteophytosis data on a pre-modern Korean population. The mean osteophytic value (MOV) of vertebrae increased in the cervical-thoracic-lumbar order. More severe osteophytosis was found in the vertebrae (C5, T9, T10, and L4) fa...
متن کاملThoracic spine osteophyte causing dysphagia.
A 65-year-old man, a chronic smoker and alcoholic with a diagnosed adenocarcinoma of the antrum of the stomach, was being further investigated because of dysphagia; endoscopic examination at the referring center showed a polypoid lesion in the mid esophagus. Positron emission tomography (PET) revealed increased uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose in this esophageal lesion. The possibility of a metasta...
متن کاملBone formers: osteophyte and enthesophyte formation are positively associated.
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that enthesophyte formation and osteophyte growth are positively associated and to look for associations between bone formation at different sites on the skeleton so that a simple measure of bone formation could be derived. METHODS Visual examination of 337 adult skeletons. All common sites of either enthesophyte or osteophyte formation were inspected by a sin...
متن کاملAnterior osteophyte discrimination in lumbar vertebrae using size-invariant features.
Radiologists often examine X-rays of cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae for determining the presence of osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. For individual vertebra assessment, the boundary increasingly digresses from the general rectangular shape as the vertebra becomes less normal in appearance. For an abnormal vertebra, bony growths ('osteophytes') may appear at the vertebral comers, result...
متن کاملAnterior Osteophyte Identification in Cervical Vertebrae
Radiologist always examines X-ray to determine abnormal changes in cervical, lumbar & thoracic vertebrae. Osteophyte (bony growth) may appear at the corners of vertebrae so that vertebral shape becomes abnormal. This paper presents the idea from Image processing techniques such as customised Hough transform which will be used for segmentation which should be independent of rotation, scale, nois...
