Visualize Interactively AIM Images Using the k3d Library

This notebook is intended to guide you through the process of visualizing and apply basic image processing operations to the AIM images loaded via the vtkbone library. As the vtkbone library is meant for IO operations, a visualization package is outside of the scope of the library. However, we provide information on the usage of a compatible library, k3d, which integrates seamlessly with the vtk image data structure.

Bone Mechanoregulation Allows Subject-Specific Load Estimation Based on Time-Lapsed Micro-CT and HR-pQCT in Vivo

Published in Front. Bioeng. Biotechnol., 2021

Despite steadily improving treatments for bone diseases, prescribed therapies are not always successful in certain patients.

Motion grading of high-resolution quantitative computed tomography supported by deep convolutional neural networks.

Published in Bone, 2023

When patients move during a specific type of bone scan called high-resolution peripheral quantitative CT (HR-pQCT), it reduces the quality of the images.

Bone remodelling and responsiveness to mechanical stimuli in individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Published in Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2024

Recent studies indicate that type 1 diabetes mellitus impairs bone remodeling by reducing the skeleton’s responsiveness to mechanical stimuli, leading to significantly lower bone formation and resorption rates compared to healthy controls.
