Detecting cervical spine fractures, especially in elderly individuals with underlying degenerative conditions, poses challenges. To address this, a study introduces a pioneering method employing deep neural networks (DNNs), specifically the U-Net architecture, to automate fracture detection in computed tomography (CT) scans. The approach focuses on accurately identifying and localizing cervical vertebrae, vital for precise fracture assessment. Utilizing U-Net's adeptness in semantic segmentation, the model accurately delineates cervical vertebrae boundaries, capturing intricate details and spatial relationships within the images. Moreover, by integrating multi-class classification layers, the framework extends U- Net's capabilities for fracture detection, distinguishing between fractured and intact regions within segmented cervical vertebrae, thus enhancing diagnostic accuracy. Trained on a diverse dataset of cervical spine injuries, the proposed methodology offers significant clinical advantages, including real-time fracture assessment, enabling prompt diagnosis and timely intervention to improve patient outcomes. Leveraging the potency of deep learning, this approach holds promise for enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of cervical spine fracture detection, ultimately contributing to enhanced patient care and treatment outcomes.
