Objective Edge Similarity Metric for denoising applications in MR images
Publication date: Available online 20 February 2020Source: Biocybernetics and Biomedical EngineeringAuthor(s): Ashok Shanmugam, S. Rukmani DeviAbstractEdge Similarity Metrics (ESMs) are necessary to objectively quantify the inadvertent blur at the edge pixels which occurs during denoising. They are helpful for evaluating edge-preserving capability of nonlinear filters. Most of the ESMs in literature, consider similarity of either strength of the edges or their direction individually. They lag in terms of concordance with subjective edge similarity ratings. An Objective Edge Similarity Metric (OESM) which considers all thre...

A review of fabrication polymer scaffolds for biomedical applications using additive manufacturing techniques
This article focuses on the utilization of polymer materials (natural and synthetic) taking into account hydrogels in scaffolds fabrication. Assessment of polymer scaffolds mechanical properties enables personalized patient care, as well as prevents damage after implantation in human body. By controlling process parameters it is possible to obtain optimised mechanical properties of manufactured parts. (Source: Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering)

Biodegradable bone implants in orthopedic applications: a review
Publication date: Available online 20 February 2020Source: Biocybernetics and Biomedical EngineeringAuthor(s): Girish Chandra, Ajay PandeyAbstractA biologically - validated biodegradable material must comfortably stay in the physiological environment it is placed in, before finally disappearing over the intended period of time with adequate rates of degradation. The primary objective and utility of such a material is to eliminate the requirement of secondary surgery in applications involving bone implants. In recent decades, biodegradable alloys have exhibited enhanced biocompatibility, and improved mechanical and biodegra...
