“Machine learning-based diagnosis of spine injuries using computed tomography” Computed tomography (CT) is a crucial imaging technique in medical diagnosis and is the preferred modality for assessing spinal trauma. However, the large volume of image data generated during tomographic examinations presents significant challenges for image analysis and diagnosis. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers the potential to enhance the speed and accuracy of diagnosis in such cases. This research aims to explore the application of machine learning (ML) methods and deep neural networks (DNNs) for the automated detection of traumatic vertebral body injuries. The study will focus on classifying vertebral fractures, distinguishing between traumatic and non-traumatic cases. The learning dataset will be constructed using trauma examination records from a clinical hospital in Warsaw. These records will consist of X-ray spine tomography studies in DICOM format, annotated by experienced radiologists. The AO Spine Classification system for thoracolumbar injuries will serve as the framework for categorizing spinal fractures. To address the computational challenges posed by the high dimensionality of tomographic data (i.e., the large number of voxels per examination), methods for reducing data size will be employed. Various deep neural network architectures will be evaluated to determine their efficacy and performance in fracture classification. Furthermore, the interpretability and explainability of the developed ML-based approach will be analyzed using tools and techniques from Explainable AI (XAI). Efforts will be made to validate the reliability of the recommendations generated by the ML models, ensuring they align with clinical expertise and established diagnostic standards.
