Abstract [en]

Background and objective: The accurate evaluation of bone mechanical properties is essential for predicting fracture risk based on clinical computed tomography (CT) images. However, blurring and noise in clinical CT images can compromise the accuracy of these predictions, leading to incorrect diagnoses. Although previous studies have explored enhancing trabecular bone CT images to super-resolution (SR), none of these studies have examined the possibility of using clinical CT images from different instruments, typically of lower resolution, as a basis for analysis. Additionally, previous studies rely on 2D SR images, which may not be sufficient for accurate mechanical property evaluation, due to the complex nature of the 3D trabecular bone structures. The objective of this study was to address these limitations. Methods: A workflow was developed that utilizes convolutional neural networks to generate SR 3D models across different clinical CT instruments. The morphological and finite-element-derived mechanical properties of these SR models were compared with ground truth models obtained from micro-CT scans. Results: A significant improvement in analysis accuracy was demonstrated, where the new SR models increased the accuracy by up to 700 % compared with the low-resolution data, i.e. clinical CT images. Additionally, we found that the mixture of different CT image datasets may improve the SR model performance. Conclusions: SR images, generated by convolutional neural networks, outperformed clinical CT images in the determination of morphological and mechanical properties. The developed workflow could be implemented for fracture risk prediction, potentially leading to improved diagnoses and subsequent clinical decision making.
