qMSK

Qure.ai
qMSK is a deep-learning based X-Ray interpretation and labeling software. It screens radiographs of 15 anatomies (clavicle, ribs, shoulder, humerus, elbow, forearm, wrist, hand/fingers, hip, pelvis, femur, knee, tibia-fibula, ankle, foot/toe) for signs of fractures. The output is an additional DICOM with a summary of AI findings and a bounding box drawn around the suspected site of fracture, if any.
