Abstract This paper addresses the common orthopedic trauma of spinal vertebral fractures and aims to enhance doctors’ diagnostic efficiency. Therefore, a deep-learning-based automated diagnostic system with multi-label segmentation is proposed to recognize the condition of vertebral fractures. The whole spine Computed Tomography (CT) image is segmented into the fracture, normal, and background using U-Net, and the fracture degree of each vertebra is evaluated (Genant semi-qualitative evaluation). The main work of this paper includes: First, based on the spatial configuration network (SCN) structure, U-Net is used instead of the SCN feature extraction network. The attention mechanism and… More >
