Directional fractal signature analysis of trabecular bone: evaluation of different methods to detect early osteoarthritis in knee radiographs

There is ongoing research directed towards the development of cheap and reliable decision support systems for the detection and prediction of osteoarthritis (OA) in knee joints. Fractal analysis of trabecular bone texture X-ray images is one of the most promising approaches. It is cheap and non-inva...
