Abstract

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of early osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is challenging due to variability in the surgeon's experience level. This study developed an MRI-based deep learning system to detect early ONFH and evaluated its feasibility in the clinic.
