摘要: A method, system, and computer program product for analyzing a medical image to determine measure of bone strength, comprising identifying plural regions interest (ROIs) in the image; calculating at least one texture feature value each ROI; averaging calculated ROI obtain average value; determining strength based on using classifier. Alternatively, data is first transformed into frequency domain averaged an image. This process reduces noise improves performance system. The assessment and/or osteoporosis used as predictor risk fracture.
