Questions about Joint Health Assessment Technology

How accurate is the technology in detecting joint weaknesses?

The accuracy of the technology depends on the quality of the video recordings and the training of the models. It can provide reliable results when used correctly.

What are the limitations of using video recordings for assessing joint health?

Video recordings may not capture all movements accurately, leading to potential limitations in assessing joint health. However, advancements in technology can improve the accuracy of this method.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method, a system, and a computer program product for detecting and/or determining presence and/or absence of a weakness in one or more bodily joints of a subject. One or more video recordings of one or more subjects are received. One or more features from each of the video recordings are extracted. The features correspond to one or more bodily joints of the subjects. One or more models are trained based on the extracted features to identify a weakness in the bodily joints. The trained model is applied to a first video recording of a first subject, and, using the applied model, a determination is made whether a weakness is present in one or more bodily joints of the first subject.
