Assessing AI-Supported Fracture Detection in Emergency Care Units

The intervention involves the use of an AI-assisted fracture detection system (Aidoc or Gleamer BoneView), which is integrated into the hospital's Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS). These AI tools analyze X-ray images in real time, highlighting potential fracture sites for physician review. The AI output serves as an additional aid, while the final diagnosis remains the responsibility of the physician.

Physicians interpret X-ray images using their standard diagnostic practices without any assistance from AI. This represents the traditional approach to diagnosing fractures.
