Abstract

BACKGROUND: Femoral head collapse is a critical pathological change and is regarded as turning point in disease progression in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). In this study, we aim to build an automatic femoral head collapse prediction pipeline for ONFH based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics.
