Takeaways:
1. We need clarity on who is an "expert"
2. AI robustness begins well before AI model training. Garbage in ==> garbage out
3. Meaningful clinical progress requires robust data, backed by rigorous data analysis for evidence based clinical care and clinical progress

🔬Most prior ultrasound for fracture studies relied on one "expert" for ground truth data generation and inconsistent use of terminology which compromises study quality and hinders progress.
