Popis: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of joint disease in the world. The diagnosis of OA is currently made by human experts and suffers from subjectivity, but recently new promising detection algorithms have been developed. We validated the current state-of-the-art KL-classifying neural network model for knee OA using knee X-rays taken from postmenopausal women suffering from knee pain attributable to OA. The performance of the model on the clinical data was considerably lower compared to the previous results on population-based test data. This suggests that the performance of the current grading methods is not yet adequate to be applied in clinical settings. The present results also emphasize the importance of using clinical data for performance evaluation before deploying medical machine learning models.
