Description

Accurate and timely diagnosis of acute abdominal emergencies remains challenging. Non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) is often used as an initial imaging modality because of atypical presentations, contraindications to contrast, or resource constraints. Here we present AbdomenNet, a multi-task AI system built on a self-supervised foundation model that detects 11 acute abdominal conditions and performs three risk-stratification subtasks from NCCT images.
