Abstract
A system for automated comprehensive assessment of clinical lumbar MRIs includes a MRI standardization component that reads MRI data from raw lumbar MRI files, uses an artificial intelligence (AI) model to convert the raw MRI data into a standardized format. A core assessment component automatically generates MRI assessment results, including multi-tissue anatomical annotation, multi-pathology detection and multi-pathology progression prediction based on the structured MRI data package. The core assessment component contains a semantic segmentation module that utilizes a deep learning artificial intelligence (AI) model to generate an MRI assessment results that contains multi-tissue anatomical annotation, a pathology detection module to generate multi-pathology detection, and a pathology progression prediction module to generate multi-pathology progression prediction. A model optimization component archives clinical MRI data and MRI assessment results based on comments provided by a specialist, and periodically optimizes the AI deep learning model of the core assessment component.
