Automated analysis of spinal MRI using deep learning

Thesis

The objective of this thesis is the automation of radiological gradings in spinal lumbar Magnetic Resonance Images (MRIs). Solving this is extremely beneficial as this in a way would help in the standardization of gradings especially for back pain research. The output of the research done in this thesis would allow extremely fast readings of clinical scans which can potentially be useful in a large scale epidemiological study of spine-related diseases and aide clinical decision making.
