BatchBMD as an Efficient and Accurate Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Report Generator

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the gold standard for evaluating Bone Mineral Density (BMD); however, a typical BMD report is generated in a time-inefficient manner and is prone to error. We developed a rule-based automated reporting system, BatchBMD,
