BACKGROUND: Rib fractures compromise approximately 40% of all fractures in the United States. Despite their prevalence, the relationship between rib fractures, solid organ injuries, and immune responses remains poorly understood. This exploratory stu...
BACKGROUND: Accurate detection and grading of fresh rib fractures are crucial for patient management but remain challenging due to the complexity of rib structures on CT images.
To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of artificial intelligence (AI) assisted radiologists and standard double-reading in real-world clinical settings for rib fractures (RFs) detection on CT images. This study included 243 consecutive chest trauma pat...
Artificial intelligence (AI) and its recent increasing healthcare integration has created both new opportunities and challenges in the practice of radiology and medical imaging. Recent advancements in AI technology have allowed for more workplace eff...

The present study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultra-low dose computed tomography (ULD-CT) compared to standard dose computed tomography (SD-CT) in discerning recent rib fractures using a deep learning algorithm detection of rib fract...
Deep learning (DL)-based rib fracture detection has shown promise of playing an important role in preventing mortality and improving patient outcome. Normally, developing DL-based object detection models requires a huge amount of bounding box annotat...
BACKGROUND: The impact of decreased bone mineral density (BMD) on traumatic rib fractures remains unknown. We combined computed tomography (CT) and artificial intelligence (AI) to measure BMD and explore its impact on traumatic rib fractures and thei...
