Abstract

Introduction

In this study, we harnessed three cutting-edge algorithms' capabilities to refine the elbow fracture prediction process through X-ray image analysis. Employing the YOLOv8 (You only look once) algorithm, we first identified Regions of Interest (ROI) within the X-ray images, significantly augmenting fracture prediction accuracy.

Methods

Subsequently, we integrated and compared the ResNet, the SeResNet (Squeeze-and-Excitation Residual Network) ViT (Vision Transformer) algorithms to refine our predictive capabilities. Furthermore, to ensure optimal precision, we implemented a series of meticulous refinements. This included recalibrating ROI regions to enable finer-grained identification of diagnostically significant areas within the X-ray images. Additionally, advanced image enhancement techniques were applied to optimize the X-ray images' visual quality and structural clarity.

Results

These methodological enhancements synergistically contributed to a substantial improvement in the overall accuracy of our fracture predictions. The dataset utilized for training, testing & validation, and comprehensive evaluation exclusively comprised elbow X-ray images, where predicting the fracture with three algorithms: Resnet50; accuracy 0.97, precision 1, recall 0.95, SeResnet50; accuracy 0.97, precision 1, recall 0.95 & ViT-B-16 with high accuracy of 0.99, precision same as the other two algorithms, with a recall of 0.95.

Conclusion

This approach has the potential to increase the precision of diagnoses, lessen the burden of radiologists, easily integrate into current medical imaging systems, and assist clinical decision-making, all of which could lead to better patient care and health outcomes overall.
