Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for automatic detection and quantification for traumatic bleeding. Image data is acquired using a full body dual energy CT scanner. A machine-learned network detects one or more bleeding areas on a bleeding map from the dual energy CT scan image data. A visualization is generated from the bleeding map. The predicted bleeding areas are quantified, and a risk value is generated. The visualization and risk value are presented to an operator.
