headline: Diagnostic accuracy & clinical importance of AI confidence for extremity fracture detection: 2,508-patient retrospective cohort
dek: 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…
gain_title: PPV for high-confidence was superior to low-confidence detections (99.1% vs 59.1%, p Conclusion The algorithm showed good diagnostic performance for extremity fracture detection on radiographs.

quick_read: 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.

The index test was the algorithm output (bounding boxes with confidence). Sensitivity, specificity, PPV and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated with 95% confidence intervals; differences were tested using the McNemar and a score test and patient-clustered logistic regression.

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.
