Quantitative Measurement Method for Possible Rib Fractures in Chest Radiographs
OBJECTIVES This paper proposes a measurement method to quantify the abnormal characteristics of the broken parts of ribs using local texture and shape features in chest radiographs. METHODS OUR MEASUREMENT METHOD COMPRISES TWO STEPS: a measurement area assignment and sampling step using a spline curve and sampling lines orthogonal to the spline curve, and a fracture-ness measurement step with...
متن کاملA nonparametric-based rib suppression method for chest radiographs
This paper presents an automated and comprehensive system for eliminating rib shadows in chest radiographs, which integrates lung field identification, rib segmentation, rib intensity estimation, and suppression. We designed a region of interest (ROI)-based method to estimate a suitable initial lung boundary for active shape model (ASM) deformation by determining the translation and scaling par...

متن کاملFinding the rib cage in chest radiographs
-We describe a system of computer algorithms that finds the rib cage in chest radiographs. Our algorithms link the dorsal and ventral portions of the rib contours such that each rib is identified and can be displayed individually. In a preliminary application of our system to five adult chest radiographs, about 90)o of the ribs were found, and ca. 15% of the computed rib contours were false. Pa...

methods retrospective cohort study of blunt trauma patients with rib fractures at a level i trauma center that had both a cxr and a ct chest. the ct finding of ≥ 3 additional fractures in patients with ≤ 3 rib fractures on cxr was considered clinically meaningful. student’s t-test and chi-square analysis were used for comparison. results we identified 499 patients with rib fractures: 93 (18.6%)...
