2023 Digital X-Ray Preview

Road to RSNA 2023: Digital X-Ray
By Will Morton
This year’s trip along the Road to RSNA for digital x-ray features mileposts mostly set by AI research. Models will be proposed for applications ranging from predicting bone density on chest x-rays to generating complete reports on ACL tears.
