Diagnostic accuracy & clinical importance of AI confidence for extremity fracture detection: 2,508-patient retrospective cohort

Purpose To estimate diagnostic performance of a deep learning algorithm for extremity fracture detection on radiographs in patients aged ≥ 2 years using a refined reference standard. Secondary, to compare positive predictive value (PPV) by the algorithm's built-in confidence level (high vs. low) and diagnostic performance between adults (≥ 18 years) and children. Methods This retrospective single-center study consecutively included patients with radiography of a suspected extremity fracture between January and D…

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1176 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
