AI Diagnosis of Hip Misalignments Proves Reliable, Fast and Cost Efficient

VIENNA - Dec. 15, 2022 - PRLog -- -          High reliability of AI based radiological image analysis of hip joints

-          Up to 90% time saving with AI-based measures compared to human assessment

-          More than 80 % savings on labor costs

The deployment of an artificial intelligence (AI) based image analysis software for the diagnosis of hip dysplasia can save time and costs without compromising the reliability of the diagnosis. This is the result of a recently published external validation study that tested IB Lab HIPPO - a musculoskeletal software tool by ImageBiopsy Lab, Austria (IB Lab). Currently the diagnosis of hip dysplasia, an abnormality of the hip joint, is based on time and cost consuming manual radiological measurements. The study conducted at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center shows that using an AI tool for image analysis can significantly accelerate the diagnosis and result in saving labor costs of highly trained experts. In a cohort of 256 hips, HIPPO managed to perform all six relevant measurements for Hip Dysplasia assessment and the study confirmed good to excellent inter-reader reliability for important bone parameters measured by HIPPO and trained experts, demonstrating the reliability of artificial intelligence based automated analysis. Recently the results have been presented at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).
