Superiority of Multiple-Joint Space Width over Minimum-Joint Space Width Approach in the Machine Learning for Radiographic Severity and Knee Osteoarthritis Progression
We compared the prediction efficiency of the multiple-joint space width (JSW) and the minimum-JSW on knee osteoarthritis (KOA) severity and progression by using a deep learning approach. A convolutional neural network (CNN) with ResU-Net architecture was developed for knee X-ray imaging segmentation...
