Nathanael E. Jacob, M. V. Wyawahare . Survey of Bone Fracture Detection Techniques. International Journal of Computer Applications. 71, 17 ( June 2013), 31-34. DOI=10.5120/12452-9342
This paper deals with techniques that have been used for bone fracture detection in the past few years. The authors have made attempts to survey papers from different modalities. This led us to study techniques that have been applied to images obtained from different modalities like X-ray, CT, MRI and ultrasound. The methods have been documented in a way that aids ease of interpretation. The paper is the first of its kind to survey fracture detection techniques across different modalities. The study will help the reader in designing computer aided diagnosis (CAD) systems in the field of medical imaging.
