Prediction of Osteoarthritis using Deep Learning
share
The dataset consists of 1650 digital X-ray images of knee joint which are collected from well reputed hospitals and diagnostic centres. The X-ray images are acquired using PROTEC PRS 500E X-ray machine. Original images are 8-bit grayscale image. Each radiographic knee X-ray image is manually annotated /labelled as per Kellgren and Lawrence grades by 2 medical experts. A novel approach has been developed to automatically extract the Cartilage region (region of interest) based on density of pixels. The target is to evaluate the performance of the deep learning algorithm to predict per Kellgren and Lawrence grades.
