Abstract:The total Sharp-van der Heijde score (TSS) is crucial for assessing the joint damage severity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Manual scoring is often time-consuming and subjective, leading to variability. This study introduces an Automated Radiographic Sharp Scoring (ARTSS) framework that leverages deep learning to analyze full-hand X-ray images, aiming to reduce inter- and intra-observer variability. A key innovation is its ability to handle patients with joint disappearance and variable-length image sequenced.… Show more
