A deep learning model for automated kidney calculi detection on non-contrast computed tomography scans in dogs [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023 Nephrolithiasis is one of the most common urinary disorders in dogs. Although a majority of kidney calculi are non-obstructive and are likely to be asymptomatic, they can lead to parenchymal loss and obstruction as they progress. Thus, early diagnosis of
