ICGM-FRAX: Iterative Cross Graph Matching for Hip Fracture Risk Assessment using Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry Images [PDF]
arXivHip fractures represent a major health concern, particularly among the elderly, often leading decreased mobility and increased mortality. Early and accurate detection of at risk individuals is crucial for effective intervention. In this study, we propose Iterative Cross Graph Matching for Hip Fracture Risk Assessment (ICGM-FRAX), a novel approach for ...
