Development and multicenter external validation of a deep learning model for early screening of thoracic ossification of the ligamentum flavum on routine chest radiographs
Background Thoracic ossification of the ligamentum flavum (TOLF) is frequently underrecognized in its early stage because radiographic abnormalities on routine chest radiographs are often subtle. We aimed to develop and externally validate a deep learning model for opportunistic screening of TOLF using routine chest ra...
