Automatic Localisation of Vertebrae in DXA Images Using Random Forest Regression Voting

We describe a method for automatic detection and localisation of vertebrae in clinical images that was designed to avoid making a priori assumptions of how many vertebrae are visible. Multiple random forest regressors were trained to identify vertebral en
