Detecting pelvic fracture on 3D-CT using deep convolutional neural networks with multi-orientated slab images

Abstract Pelvic fracture is one of the leading causes of death in the elderly, carrying a high risk of death within 1 year of fracture. This study proposes an automated method to detect pelvic fractures on 3-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT). Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) have bee...
