Summary

Study Overview This clinical research focuses on the development and validation of a multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) platform designed for the automated diagnosis and precise staging of two major musculoskeletal conditions: Osteoporosis (OP) and Osteoarthritis (OA). By integrating diverse clinical imaging data, the study aims to provide a more objective and standardized approach to assessing bone and joint degeneration.

Technological Core: Intelligent Staging

Traditional diagnosis often relies on manual interpretation, which can lead to inter-observer variability. This study employs deep learning and multimodal imaging to:

For Osteoporosis: Automatically quantify bone mineral density and micro-architectural changes to determine the stage of bone loss and evaluate fracture risk.

For Osteoarthritis: Identify subtle radiological markers such as joint space narrowing and osteophyte formation to categorize the severity of joint degeneration according to international staging standards (e.g., Kellgren-Lawrence scale).

Why This Matters Early Intervention: By identifying early-stage changes in bone density and joint integrity, clinicians can implement preventive treatments before significant disability occurs.

Standardized Care: The intelligent diagnostic model provides a "digital second opinion," ensuring consistent staging across different healthcare settings.

Efficiency: The automated workflow reduces the workload of radiologists while maintaining high diagnostic accuracy.

Ethical Compliance The study is conducted at Peking University People's Hospital under the supervision of the Institutional Review Board (Approval No. 2026PHB097-001). It strictly adheres to international ethical standards, including the Declaration of Helsinki and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, to ensure patient data privacy and safety.
