Team Meetings:

We meet weekly at 1pm on Wednesdays on the 7th floor of the Centre for Hip Health and Mobility (Robert H.N. Ho Research Centre). We also highly recommend attending weekly Orthopaedic Grand Rounds. If you're not on their mailing list, please let me know. They meet Wednesdays from 7-8 am in the Eye Care Centre Auditorium (kitty-corner to ICORD, main floor).

Useful Information

Data

Ultrasound Images

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) scans:

Pelvis

  • Lead: Prash Pandey
    • Modality: 3D reconstructed volumes
    • Machine: Ultrasonix (4DL14-5/38 probe) and NDI Polaris
    • Subject: Agar pelvic phantom
    • Quantity: 15 reconstructed volumes (5 from each of the three superficial structures (left/right iliac spines and pubis)), 24 reconstructed volumes of the full pelvis (12 containing all structures, 12 containing only iliac crests)
    • Note: 0.8mm isotropic pixel resolution. Associated CT scan available with corresponding fiducial locations. Can be used for segmentation and registration analysis.
