OBJECTIVE: The femur is a typical human long bone with an irregular spatial structure. Femoral fractures are the most common occurrence in middle-aged and older adults. The structure of human bone tissue is very complex, and there are significant dif...
OBJECTIVE: To develop an ensemble deep learning model (DLM) predicting anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears from lateral knee radiographs and to evaluate its diagnostic performance.
BACKGROUND: Notch volume is associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Manual tracking of intercondylar notch on MR images is time-consuming and laborious. Deep learning has become a powerful tool for processing medical images. This stu...
INTRODUCTION: In recent years, the scientific community focused on developing Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) tools that could improve clinicians' bone fractures diagnosis, primarily based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). However, the discerni...
