Deep Learning-Driven Abbreviated Shoulder MRI Protocols: Diagnostic Accuracy in Clinical Practice
DL-accelerated shoulder MRI protocols demonstrate high diagnostic accuracy, with DL2 showing performance nearly identical to that of the standard protocol. While DL4 maintains acceptable diagnostic accuracy, it shows a slight sensitivity reduction for subtle pathologies, particularly among less experienced readers. The DL2 protocol represents an optimal balance between acquisition time reduction and diagnostic confidence.
