Opportunistic assessment of osteoporosis using hip and pelvic X-rays with OsteoSight™: validation of an AI-based tool in a US population

The results demonstrate that OsteoSight is accurate in identifying patients with low BMD. This suggests its utility as an opportunistic assessment tool, especially in settings where DXA accessibility is limited or not recently performed. The tool's reproducibility and robust performance across various clinical confounders further supports its integration into routine orthopedic and medical practices, potentially broadening the reach of osteoporosis assessment and enabling earlier intervention for at-risk patients.
