Abstract
The present subject matter relates to a system (100) and a method (300) for classifying a type of fracture on musculoskeletal X-ray image (101). The system (100) employs a data collection module, a fracture-type classification module including a classification model (207) and a segmentation model (208) based on an artificial intelligence. The data collection module (205) may collect data corresponding to input X-ray images (101), which are then analyzed by a fracture-type classification module (206) using the classification model (207) and the segmentation model (208). Further, the classification model (207) may calculate the classification score and the segmentation module (208) may calculate the segmentation score. The fracture-type classification module may generate the fracture-type score based on the classification score and segmentation score. The fracture-type classification module may be configured for comparing the fracture-type score with a threshold value for each fracture part separately to classify the type of fracture.
