Purpose: Reading spinal CT (Computed Tomography) images is very important in the diagnosis of spondylosis, which is time-consuming and prones to make biases. In this paper, we propose a framework based on Faster-RCNN to improve detection performances of three spinal fracture lesions: cfracture (cervical fracture), tfracture (thoracic fracture) and lfracture (lumbar fracture). Methods: First, we use ResNet50 to replace VGG16 in backbone network in Faster-RCNN to increase depth of training network. Second, we utilize soft-NMS (Non-Maximum Suppression) instead of NMS to avoid missed detection of overlapped lesions. Third, we simplify RPN (Region Proposal Network) to accelerate training speed and reduce missed detection. Finally, we modify the classifier layer in Faster-RCNN and choose appropriate length-width ratio by changing anchor sizes in sliding window, then adopt multi-scale strategy in training to improve efficiency and accuracy. Results: The experimental results show that the proposed scheme has a good performance, mAP (mean average precision) is 90.6%, IOU (Intersection of Union) is 88.5 and detection time is 0.053 second per CT image, which means our proposed method can accurately detect spinal fracture lesions. Conclusion: Our proposed method can provide assistance and scientific references for both doctors and patients in clinically.

Case Basis

Cervical spine fractures resulting in a dislocation often occur with a high-energy trauma. Prompt and accurate diagnosis of a fracture can be obtained with a CT scan. Controversy exists as to whether closed reduction should be performed prior to obtaining an MRI due to concerns of traumatic disc herniation. Closed reduction of a fracture with a traumatic disc herniation can potentially worsen a neurologic deficit by creating more severe cord compression. Open or closed reduction of a cervical fracture should be followed by internal fixation. Anterior, posterior, or circumferential fixation should be instituted on a case-by-case basis. Postoperative care in an intensive care unit includes maintaining adequate mean arterial pressure for spinal cord perfusion, and monitoring for signs of neurogenic shock.
