A Deep-Learning Model for Diagnosing Fresh Vertebral Fractures on Magnetic Resonance Images.

Journal: World neurosurgery
Published Date: Mar 1, 2024

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The accurate diagnosis of fresh vertebral fractures (VFs) was critical to optimizing treatment outcomes. Existing studies, however, demonstrated insufficient accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in detecting fresh fractures using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and fall short in localizing the fracture sites.
