Machine-learning algorithm can detect early, subtle signs of osteoarthritis

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and Carnegie Mellon University College of Engineering have created a machine-learning algorithm that can detect subtle signs of osteoarthritis- too abstract to register in the eye of a trained radiologist- on an MRI scan taken years before symptoms even begin.
