Abstract

This study developed a deep learning model for fully automatic segmentation and labelling of wrist bones from four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) scans. This is a crucial step towards implementing 4DCT for diagnosing wrist ligament lesions, reducing time-consuming analysis of extensive data.
