''Special Issue on Computational Methods and Clinical Applications for Spine Imaging''

The spine represents both a vital central acis for the musculoskeletal system and a flexible protective shell surrounding the most important neural pathway in the body, the spinal cord. Spinal disease is common and causes a huge burden of morbidity and cost to society. Examples include degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, fracture, ligamentous injury, infection, tumour, and spondyloarthropathy. Treatment varies with the disease entity and the clinical scenario can be nonspecific. As a result, imagin is often required to help make the diagnosis. Frequently obtained studies include plain radiographs, DXA, bone scans, CT and MR. Computation methods play a steadily increasing role in improving speed, confidence, and accuracy in reaching a final diagnosis. For this special issue, we invite authors to submit original research papers or high- quality review articles on a wide range of topics including, but not limited to:

* Clinical applications of spine imaging
* Computer Aided Diagnosis of spine conditions
* Emerging computational imaging techniques for spinal diseases
* Fast 3D reconstruction of spine
* Feature extraction, multiscale analysis, pattern recognition
* Image enhancement of spine imaging
* Image-guided spine intervention and treatment
* Multimodal Image registration and fusion for spine imaging
* Novel visualization techniques
