The aim of this study is to determine if the therapeutic RT range of 10-50 Gy affects the biomechanical properties of photodynamic implants. For the experimental group, 15 photodynamic implants were divided evenly into 5 groups that were exposed to different doses of RT (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 Gy). The control group consisted of 14 non-irradiated photodynamic implants. Four-point bending tests were conducted on all implants to determine bending stiffness. One-way ANOVA was conducted.

Bending stiffness (N/mm) mean ± standard deviation for the irradiated experimental groups was 39.2 ± 1.0. No significant difference was found between any groups.

Knee OA is commonly associated with varus deformity, where the alignment of the knee shifts medially, leading to increased stress and deterioration of the medial compartment. The HKA angle, which quantifies this alignment, is a critical indicator of the severity of varus deformity and helps guide treatment strategies, including corrective surgeries. Current manual methods are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and prone to inter-observer variability. Developing an automated model for HKA angle measurement is challenging due to the elaborate process of generating handcrafted anatomical landmarks, which is more labor-intensive than the actual measurement. This study aims to develop a ResNet-based deep learning model that predicts the HKA angle without requiring explicit anatomical landmark annotations and to assess its accuracy and efficiency compared to conventional manual methods.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;We developed a deep learning model based on the variants of the ResNet architecture to process lower limb radiographs and predict HKA angles without explicit landmark annotations. The classification performance for the four stages of varus deformity (stage I: 0°-10°, stage II: 10°-20°, stage III: &gt; 20°, others: genu valgum or normal alignment) was also evaluated. The model was trained and validated using a retrospective cohort of 300 knee OA patients (Kellgren-Lawrence grade 3 or higher), with horizontal flip augmentation applied to double the dataset to 600 samples, followed by fivefold cross-validation. An extended temporal validation was conducted on a separate cohort of 50 knee OA patients. The model's accuracy was assessed by calculating the mean absolute error between predicted and actual HKA angles. Additionally, the classification of varus deformity stages was conducted to evaluate the model's ability to provide clinically relevant categorizations. Time efficiency was compared between the automated model and manual measurements performed by an experienced orthopedic surgeon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The ResNet-50 model achieved a bias of - 0.025° with a standard deviation of 1.422° in the retrospective cohort and a bias of - 0.008° with a standard deviation of 1.677° in the temporal validation cohort. Using the ResNet-152 model, it accurately classified the four stages of varus deformity with weighted F1-score of 0.878 and 0.859 in the retrospective and temporal validation cohorts, respectively.
