Utility of osteoporosis screening based on estimation of bone mineral density using bidirectional chest radiographs with deep learning models

IntroductionOsteoporosis increases the risk of fragility fractures, especially of the lumbar spine and femur. As fractures affect life expectancy, it is crucial to detect the early stages of osteoporosis. Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard for bone mineral density (BMD) measurement...
