Comprehensive AI fracture diagnosis of the peripheral skeleton

Radiographs of the left ankle frontal (left) and lateral (middle right) views of a 52-year-old patient with pain after a fall. BoneView Trauma correctly detects the nondisplaced longitudinal fracture of the distal fibula (middle left and right, yellow dashed boxes). In addition, the joint effusion is correctly reported in the lateral view (right, yellow box).

Radiographs of the peripheral skeleton are among the most common and important diagnostic methods for medical practices, medical institutes and hospitals. At the same time, they take up a large part of the available working time of radiologists, particularly because on average only about 10% of all radiographs show acute pathologies.

It is with great pleasure that we present BoneView Trauma, an AI assistant for fracture detection on X-ray images.

Why BoneView Trauma matters and how it works

BoneView Trauma detects traumatic lesions on X-rays. The AI diagnoses are available to all patients at any time of the day while providing the convenience and efficiency to streamline workflows. Fractures, effusions, dislocations, dislocations and malignant bone lesions are recognized. These pathologies are detected immediately after the X-rays are taken, even before the radiologist has seen the studies himself. These patients can be prioritized, diagnosed and treated accordingly.

Who benefits

Patients, clinicians and radiologists with a more detailed and accurate diagnosis and the reduced likelihood of missed therapy.

Our own experience at Radailogy

The high true positive rate of BoneView Trauma convinces us. Doubtful or borderline pathologies are also reported as such. In particular, the detection of joint effusions is currently unique. The clear delineation of pathologies in words and images supports the transfer of radiological knowledge to referring physicians and patients.

Any medical professional can request fracture analysis from this AI assistant for any individual patient by uploading it to Radailogy quickly and easily. Our telemedicine customers also use BoneView Trauma as a standard in their daily practice to streamline their workflow.
