Hip dysplasia (HD) is a frequent cause of hip pain in skeletally mature patients and may lead to osteoarthritis (OA). An accurate and early diagnosis may postpone, reduce or even prevent the onset of OA and ultimately hip arthroplasty at a young age. The overall aim of this study was to assess the reliability of an algorithm, designed to read pelvic anterior-posterior (AP) radiographs and to estimate the agreement between the algorithm and human readers for measuring (i) lateral center edge angle of Wiberg (LCEA) and (ii) Acetabular index angle (AIA). The algorithm was based on deep-learning models developed using a modified U-net architecture and ResNet 34. The newly developed algorithm was found to be highly reliable when identifying the anatomical landmarks used for measuring LCEA and AIA in pelvic radiographs, thus offering highly consistent measurement outputs. The study showed that manual identification of the same landmarks made by five specialist readers were subject to variance and the level of agreement between the algorithm and human readers was consequently poor with mean measured differences from 0.37 to 9.56° for right LCEA measurements. The algorithm displayed the highest agreement with the senior orthopedic surgeon. With further development, the algorithm may be a good alternative to humans when screening for HD.
