Abstract

BACKGROUND: Accurate finding of Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) from structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a difficult task and is greatly subject to user variation. Furthermore, the identification of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) from MRI scans presents a challenge due to the limited information available. A novel methodology using an ensemble Deep Learning algorithm, combining EfficientNet-B3 and ResNext-101 architectures, aims to forecast KOA advancement, bridging the identified gap in clinical trials.
