The algorithm consists of four steps: 1) computation of an initial region of interest (ROI) that includes the pelvic joints region using heuristics and a U-Net classifier; 2) refinement of the ROI to detect both sacroiliac joints using a four-tree random forest; 3) individual sacroiliitis grading of each sacroiliac joint in each CT slice with a custom slice CNN classifier, and; 4) sacroiliitis diagnosis and grading by combining the individual slice grades using a random forest.
