Abstract

In an approach to automatic detection of vertebral dislocations, training data is received, where the training data includes an ordered sequence of radiographic image patches of vertebrae and intervertebral spaces, and location data for each vertebra and each intervertebral space. Location deep learning models are trained to detect a location of each vertebra and each intervertebral space from the training data. Classification deep learning models are trained to classify an ordered sequence of image patches to identify vertebral anomalies of the vertebrae and the intervertebral spaces from the training data. Responsive to receiving radiographic image files, the location deep learning models and the classification deep learning models are applied to the radiographic image files to create a condition assessment.
