Title
Using Machine learning to find gender differences in the bone morphology of the first rib
Summary
In our Project we are going to use your Database combined with Machine learning algorithms to see if there is a sex dimorphism in the anatomy of the first rib. It will be one building block in our attempt to find out why women are four times more likely to develop Thoracic outlet syndrome.
Aims
- find gender differences in the anatomy of the first rib
