First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested an artificial intelligence (AI) program called Carebot AI Bones to see how well it finds fractures on X-rays. Researchers compared the AI's performance to that of experienced radiologists using 600 X-rays from both children and adults. The goal was to see if the AI could help doctors catch more fractures and reduce missed injuries.
