Detecting whether L1 or other lumbar levels would be excluded from DXA bone mineral density analysis during opportunistic CT screening for osteoporosis using machine learning

ConclusionsMachine learning algorithms could be used to identify which lumbar vertebrae would be excluded from DXA analysis and should not be used for opportunistic CT screening analysis. The SVM was better than the NN for identifying which lumbar vertebra should not be used for opportunistic CT screening analysis.
