A state-of-the-art object detector, YOLOv4, was trained to locate regions of interests (ROIs) in full-leg X-Ray images for the hip joint, the knee, and the ankle. Residual neural networks (ResNets) were trained to regress landmark coordinates for each ROI.Based on the detected landmarks the knee alignment, i.e., the hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle, was computed. The accuracy of landmark detection was evaluated by a comparison to manually placed landmarks for 360 legs in 180 X-Rays. The accuracy of HKA angle computations was assessed on the basis of 2,943 X-Rays. Results of YARLA were compared to the results of two independent image reading studies(Cooke; Duryea) both publicly accessible via the Osteoarthritis Initiative. The agreement was evaluated using Spearman's Rho, and weighted kappa as well as regarding the correspondence of the class assignment (varus/neutral/valgus). The average difference between YARLA and manually placed landmarks was less than 2.0+- 1.5 mm for all structures (hip, knee, ankle). The average mismatch between HKA angle determinations of Cooke and Duryea was 0.09 +- 0.63°; YARLA resulted in a mismatch of 0.10 +- 0.74° compared to Cooke and of 0.18 +- 0.64° compared to Duryea. Cooke and Duryea agreed almost perfectly with respect to a weighted kappa value of 0.86, and showed an excellent reliability as measured by a Spearman's Rho value of 0.99. Similar values were achieved by YARLA, i.e., a weighted kappa value of0.83 and 0.87 and a Spearman's Rho value of 0.98 and 0.99 to Cooke and Duryea,respectively. Cooke and Duryea agreed in 92% of all class assignments and YARLA did so in 90% against Cooke and 92% against Duryea. In conclusion, YARLA achieved results comparable to those of human experts and thus provides a basis for an automated assessment of knee alignment in full-leg X-Rays.

This survey focuses on three main application areas. (1) Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of blood flow in cerebral aneurysms assist in predicting the outcome of this pathologic process and of therapeutic interventions. (2) CFD simulations of nasal airflow allow for investigating the effects of obstructions and deformities and provide therapy decision support. (3) 4D Phase-Contrast (4D PC) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of aortic hemodynamics supports the diagnosis of various vascular and valve pathologies as well as their treatment. An investigation of the complex and often dynamic simulation and measurement data requires the coupling of sophisticated visualization, interaction, and data analysis techniques. In this paper, we survey the large body of work that has been conducted within this realm. We extend previous surveys by incorporating nasal airflow, addressing the joint investigation of blood flow and vessel wall properties, and providing a more fine-granular taxonomy of the existing techniques. From the survey, we extract major research trends and identify open problems and future challenges. The survey is intended for researchers interested in medical flow but also more general, in the combined visualization of physiology and anatomy, the extraction of features from flow field data and feature-based visualization, the visual comparison of different simulation results, and the interactive visual analysis of the flow field and derived characteristics.
