Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  AI-based Osteoarthritis Grading System  The comparator agent is the manual grading method performed by trained radiologists, who visually assess radiographs and assign OA severity scores based on standardized grading systems, such as the Kellgren-Lawrence scale. This traditional approach relies on the radiologist’s expertise and judgment, making it susceptible to inter- and intra-observer variability. While widely used, manual grading is often limited by its subjective nature and reduced sensitivity for identifying subtle, early-stage OA changes. 
Intervention  AI-based Osteoarthritis Grading System  The intervention in this study is an AI-powered grading system designed to evaluate osteoarthritis (OA) severity using conventional radiographs. This system leverages advanced deep learning algorithms to detect and quantify key radiographic features such as joint space narrowing, osteophytes, and subchondral sclerosis. It provides automated, quantitative, and standardized grading of OA, adhering to established classification criteria like the Kellgren-Lawrence scale. The system is intended to enhance diagnostic precision, reduce variability in assessments, and facilitate the early detection of OA through objective analysis.

Brief Summary  
The study aims to improve the accuracy and
consistency of osteoarthritis (OA) diagnosis using an AI-based algorithm. Traditional
radiographic assessments are subjective and variable, often leading to delayed or
inappropriate treatments. This research will develop an AI model trained on a diverse,
annotated dataset of radiographic images to detect and grade OA features such as
joint space narrowing, osteophytes, subchondral sclerosis, and cysts. Employing a
stratified random sampling technique, the study ensures a representative dataset. The
AI’s performance will be validated against traditional assessments, aiming to achieve
high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. The expected outcome is a robust AI tool
that enhances diagnostic reliability, improves patient outcomes, and optimizes radiology
workflows.
