Intelligent Slice Placement for Oblique Coronal ACL plane prescription for Knee MRI using Deep Learning

In clinical practice, oblique coronal and sagittal scans have been shown to be superior for visualization of ACL and assessment of ACL tears. In this work, we demonstrate a Deep Learning based method to obtain these complex scan planes (Coronal ACL and Coronal Blumensaat) directly from standard 2D tri-planar Localizers. Results on 487 test volumes show <0.6mm mean error for both planes, indicating suitability for clinical usage.
