  • Automated fracture detection using machine learning models
    Patent number: 11315242
    Abstract: Techniques for fracture detection are provided. A first image is received to be processed to identify rib fractures. A first set of regions of interest (ROIs) is identified by processing the first image using a first machine learning model, where each ROI in the first set of ROIs corresponds to a first potential fracture. Further, a first ROI of the first set of ROIs is upsampled, and the system attempts to verify the first potential fracture in the first ROI by processing the upsampled first ROI using a second machine learning model.
