Detecting hand joint ankylosis and subluxation in radiographic images using deep learning: A step in the development of an automatic radiographic scoring system for joint destruction.

We propose a wrist joint subluxation/ankylosis classification model for an automatic radiographic scoring system for X-ray images. In managing rheumatoid arthritis, the evaluation of joint destruction is important. The modified total Sharp score (mTSS), which is conventionally used to evaluate joint destruction of the hands and feet, should ideally be automated because the required time depends on...

Automatic Segmentation and Classification for Antinuclear Antibody Images Based on Deep Learning.

Antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) testing is the main serological diagnosis screening test for autoimmune diseases. ANAs testing is conducted principally by the indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) on human epithelial cell-substrate (HEp-2) protocol. However, due to its high variability and human subjectivity, there is an insistent need to develop an efficient method for automatic image segmentation and ...
