Abstract

PURPOSE: Accurate identification of radiographic landmarks is fundamental to characterizing glenohumeral relationships before and sequentially after shoulder arthroplasty, but manual annotation of these radiographs is laborious. We report on the use of artificial intelligence, specifically computer vision and deep learning models (DLMs), in determining the accuracy of DLM-identified and surgeon identified (SI) landmarks before and after anatomic shoulder arthroplasty.
