Diagnosis of osteoporosis using modified U-net architecture with attention unit in DEXA and X-ray images.

CONCLUSION: Our modified U-Net with attention unit achieves significantly higher results in terms of Dice score and classification accuracy. The computed BMD and T-score values of the proposed method are also compared with the respective clinical reports for validation. Hence, using the digitized X-Ray images can be used to detect osteoporosis efficiently and accurately. PMID: 32651352 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
