Effects of Image Degradation on Deep Neural Network Classification of Scaphoid Fracture Radiographs: Comparison Study of Different Noise Types

The findings indicate that image quality, especially resolution and blurring, substantially influences the robustness of deep learning-based fracture detection models. Ensuring adequate image resolution and quality control can enhance diagnostic reliability. These results provide valuable insights for designing more accurate and resilient medical imaging models under real-world variability.

Abstract

The findings indicate that image quality, especially resolution and blurring, substantially influences the robustness of deep learning-based fracture detection models. Ensuring adequate image resolution and quality control can enhance diagnostic reliability. These results provide valuable insights for designing more accurate and resilient medical imaging models under real-world variability.
