Abstract

Objective: Developmental hip dysplasia is a common condition that starts in infancy. With the introduction of machine learning (artificial intelligence, AI) into medicine, the early diagnosis of disease and the success of treatment have increased significantly. This study aims to determine the accuracy of ultrasound images from ultrasound videos used in the developmental hip dysplasia screening program using machine learning techniques.
Material and Method: The study involved the extraction of ultrasound image features using the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) method. The ultrasound image dataset was then prepared to evaluate the effectiveness of various machine learning approaches, including Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), Gradient Boosting (GB), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Naïve Bayes (NB), Logistic Regression (LR), and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP).
Results: RF algorithm performed very well, recording the highest correct image rate. The study was generally considered successful and it is believed that the resulting model will be useful in the early diagnosis of developmental hip dysplasia.
Conclusion: RF algorithm recorded the highest correct image rate, performing very well at 87.62% compared to
other tested algorithms. The study was generally considered successful and the resulting model is believed to be
useful in the early diagnosis of developmental hip dysplasia.

Gelişimsel Kalça Displazisinde Ultrason Görüntülemenin Yapay Zeka ile Değerlendirilmesi

Abstract

Amaç: Gelişimsel kalça displazisi, bebeklik döneminde ortaya çıkan yaygın bir hastalıktır. Makine öğreniminin (yapay zeka, AI) tıp alanına girmesi ile hastalıkların erken tanısını ve tedavi başarısını önemli oranda artırmaktadır. Bu çalışma, makine öğrenme tekniklerini (yapay zeka) kullanarak gelişimsel kalça displazisi tarama programında kullanılan ultrason videolarından ultrason görüntüsünün doğruluğunun belirlenmesi amaçlamaktadır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma, Lokal İkili Model (LBP) metodolojisi aracılığıyla ultrason görüntü özelliklerinin çıkarılmasını içeriyordu. Daha sonra, ‘Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), Gradient Boosting (GB), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Naïve Bayes (NB), Linear Regression (LR), and
Multilayer Perceptron (MLP)’ dahil olmak üzere farklı makine öğrenimi yaklaşımlarının etkinliğini değerlendirmek için ultrason görüntü veri kümesini hazırlandı.
Bulgular: RF algoritması, test edilen diğer algoritmalarla karşılaştırıldığında %87,62 ile çok iyi performans göstererek en yüksek doğru görüntü oranını kaydetti. Çalışma genel olarak başarılı kabul edildi ve ortaya çıkan modelin gelişimsel kalça displazisinin erken teşhisinde faydalı olacağına inanılıyor.
Sonuç: RF algoritması en yüksek doğru görüntü oranını kaydederek çok iyi bir performans sergilemektedir. Çalışma genel olarak başarılı sayıldı ve elde edilen modelin gelişimsel kalça displazisi’ nin erken teşhisinde
yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
