• Research summary

  A computational model has been created to estimate a patient's anterior-posterior (AP) depth from a single x-ray image. This study aims to test how accurate the estimates of this computational model are by using it on 20 patients undergoing AP abdomen x-rays and comparing the estimate with a direct measurement of the AP depth made of the patient at the time of their x-ray examination.
