Purpose: The purpose of this study was to build and evaluate a high-performance algorithm to detect and characterize the presence of a meniscus tear on magnetic resonance imaging examination (MRI) of the knee. Material and methods: An algorithm was trained on a dataset of 1123 MR images of the knee. We separated the main task into three sub-tasks: first to detect the position of both horns, second to detect the presence of a tear, and last to determine the orientation of the tear. An algorithm based on fast-region convolutional neural network (CNN) and faster-region CNN, was developed to classify the tasks. The algorithm was thus used on a test dataset composed of 700 images for external validation. The performance metric was based on area under the curve (AUC) analysis for each task and a final weighted AUC encompassing the three tasks was calculated. Results: The use of our algorithm yielded an AUC of 0.92 for the detection of the position of the two meniscal horns, of 0.94 for the presence of a meniscal tear and of 083 for determining the orientation of the tear, resulting in a final weighted AUC of 0.90. Conclusion: We demonstrate that our algorithm based on fast-region CNN is able to detect meniscal tears and is a first step towards developing more end-to-end artificial intelligence-powered diagnostic tools.
