NLP Project
This project, which is funded through the Sydney Local Health District, will improve the identification of patients with fractures through Natural Language Processing (NLP) of imaging reports and the electronic medical record (eMR). The project has commenced in April 2018 with completion expected early next year. The project will involve 3 hospitals and aims to produce an electronic tool with high accuracy of identifying patients with an osteoporotic fracture.
