Automated 3D segmentation of rotator cuff muscle and fat from longitudinal CT for shoulder arthroplasty evaluation

This study developed accurate and reliable deep learning models for automated 3D segmentation of rotator cuff muscles on clinical CT scans in TSA patients. These models substantially reduce the time required for muscle volume and fat fraction analysis and provide a practical tool for investigating how rotator cuff muscle health relates to surgical outcomes. This has the potential to inform patient selection, rehabilitation planning, and surgical decision-making in TSA and RCR.

Abstract

This study developed accurate and reliable deep learning models for automated 3D segmentation of rotator cuff muscles on clinical CT scans in TSA patients. These models substantially reduce the time required for muscle volume and fat fraction analysis and provide a practical tool for investigating how rotator cuff muscle health relates to surgical outcomes. This has the potential to inform patient selection, rehabilitation planning, and surgical decision-making in TSA and RCR.
