Systems and methods for image processing

This invention describes a computer system that helps doctors diagnose bone fractures. It takes multiple medical images of bones, automatically finds any broken areas, and then lets a user select specific bones from a list. Once a bone is selected, the system can show either a 3D reconstruction of that bone or highlight the detected fracture regions on the images. The system specifically mentions segmenting bones from images before detecting fractures and can use images taken at different slices.

Why it matters: Filed in 2022, this system relies heavily on machine learning for image segmentation and fracture detection. Since then, advancements in AI, particularly in medical imaging and 3D reconstruction, have made these tasks significantly more accurate and computationally efficient, potentially overcoming previous development hurdles.
