BoneView® is a revolutionary AI software designed to assist radiologists and emergency clinicians in the diagnosis of skeletal fractures. It uses advanced algorithms to detect and localise lesions on X-rays – graphically highlighting areas of interest – before submitting the images to radiologists for validation. Fujifilm X-ray systems are equipped with a new image processing box called EX-Mobile enabling to connect with BoneView® software. Results are available within 30 seconds at the point of care, providing healthcare professionals with additional support to help improve patient management.
The user-friendly software can be seamlessly integrated into Fujifilm’s comprehensive x-ray modality line-up, making it perfectly suited to small or remote clinics, pop-up medical centres, nursing homes, up to large multi-function institutions. This will aid medical staff in the rapid identification of patients with suspected fractures, triaging them for further investigation to ease workflows and enhance patient care pathways. A clinical trial involving appendicular skeletal fractures found that BoneView® reduced the number of false positives by 41.9 %, and improved fracture detection sensitivity and specificity.1 These results are supported by another study involving additional anatomical locations, where AI assistance reduced radiograph reading times by 6.3 seconds per patient.2
