Deep Learning Estimation of Sex, Age, Height, and Weight from CT-derived Digitally Reconstructed Radiographs

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.18638v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Purpose: To develop and validate a deep learning ensemble for estimating adult sex, age, height, and weight from coronal digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) generated from diagnostic CT. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 128,621 CT examinations from 80,004 adults at nine institutions in Japan. Three multitask models-ConvNeXt-Base, ViT-Base/16, and MaxViT-Base-were fine-tuned using coronal DRRs and combined by weighted averaging. Data were split by institution into training (114,147 examinations; seven institutions), tuning (4,305; one institution), and test (10,169; one institution) sets; generalizability was assessed on two non-Japanese datasets. Accuracy and mean absolute error (MAE) were used to evaluate sex
