AI model predicts scoliosis spinal curve progression
By Will Morton
A deep-learning AI model shows promise for predicting spinal curves in individuals with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Three regions of interest (ROI) were selected and processed for training from each original radiograph. The leftmost image is the original coronal view radiograph. The original radiograph was passed through the CLAHE algorithm to enhance image brightness and contrast. The three crop boxes outlined by red dotted lines illustrate the three crops generated for model training. Crop 1 selects the ROI for the whole-spine region according to coordinates exported by AlignProCARE. Crops 2 and 3 select the ROIs for the upper and lower end vertebra of the major curvature. All ROIs were subsequently resized into 256 × 256 for Crop 1 and 50 × 50 for Crop 2 and 3. Crop 1 ROI was additionally multiplied by a Gaussian mask to amplify the signal of the vertebrae.
