Abstract

BACKGROUND: Digital X-ray imaging is essential for diagnosing osteoporosis, but distinguishing affected patients from healthy individuals using these images remains challenging. OBJECTIVE: This study introduces a novel method using deep learning to improve osteoporosis diagnosis from bone X-ray images. METHODS: A dataset of bone X-ray images was analyzed using a newly proposed procedure. This procedure involves segregating the images into regions of interest (ROI) and non-ROI, thereby reducing data redundancy. The images were then processed to enhance both spatial and statistical features. For classification, a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier was employed to distinguish between osteoporotic and non-osteoporotic cases. RESULTS: The proposed method demonstrated a promising Area under the Curve (AUC) of 90.8% in diagnosing osteoporosis, benchmarking favorably against existing techniques. This signifies a high level of accuracy in distinguishing osteoporosis patients from healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed method effectively distinguishes between osteoporotic and non-osteoporotic cases using bone X-ray images. By enhancing image features and employing SVM classification, the technique offers a promising tool for efficient and accurate osteoporosis diagnosis.
