Artificial Intelligence Accurately Detects Fractures on X-Rays

A study published on Hospimedica highlights the effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) in detecting fractures on X-rays. The research demonstrated that AI assistance reduced missed fractures by 29% and increased diagnostic sensitivity by 16% for single fractures, and by 30% for cases involving multiple fractures. Additionally, AI improved specificity by 5% and shortened X-ray reading time by an average of 6.3 seconds per patient. The enhancements were particularly notable in detecting fractures in the shoulder, clavicle, and thoracolumbar spine regions
